Do you ever wish for a deeper and more meaningful connection to life at OPPC?  Would you like to develop closer, supportive relationships with others in our congregation; explore ways to enrich your spiritual life and move forward in your faith journey; or reach out and help those in need? 

If the answer is YES, you'll want to know that our COVENANT GROUPS are focused on just these goals. The groups are OPEN TO MEMBERS AND NON-MEMBERS alike at OPPC.

Covenant Groups

Covenant Groups, our small group ministry, began in the fall of 2005.  We currently have five groups meeting with over 50 participants.  Covenant Group meetings are centered around these elements:

Community Building forging strong relationships within the group, building trust

                                          and giving unconditional support.

Faith & Discipleship growing in faith journeys, sharing and discussing beliefs

                                          and growing closer to God.

Prayerpraying for and with group members and for others.

Missionundertaking a mission project to help those in need.

Small groups have had a transforming effect on churches of all denominations for many years.  The renewed spiritual growth and deep personal relationships within these groups consistently energizes the congregation as a whole.

A current meeting schedule is listed below:
