Vision Gathering

We invite you to come together with us on Saturday to think and pray about the future of OiC. The purpose of the gathering is as follows:

1. Pray - We need to seek God´s will and guidance for us as a church

“If it is not the LORD who builds a house, the builders are wasting their time. (…) The Lord provides for those he loves, even while they are sleeping.” (Psalm 127). Trying to do anything apart from our relationship with God and his guidance, is a waste of time. We desperately need Him. Lets pray!

2. We would like to share with you how we think about continuing the process, how you can be involved, and we would love to hear your input if you have any.

3. Lets dream together. Its time for us in OiC to think about formulating a vision. What is your dreams for OiC? What do you long for,  and what do we together think is the will of God for us?

LOCATION: Lyder Sagens gate 7

TIME: Saturday at 10:00 – 12:00
