Personal Connection

Stop by the Family Rooms in the Lobby. We would love to meet you, show you around, and help you navigate your first steps.

At OCC, worship is simple—it’s all about Jesus. Our Creative Arts team utilizes music, technology, and storytelling to help create moments where you can connect with God in a genuine way. Don’t worry about how you sound—sing out and join us! Whether you come with kids in tow, by yourself, or with friends, we want you to feel right at home in an atmosphere that’s joyful, Spirit-filled, and focused on Him.

FRIENDLY PEOPLE
You will encounter a diverse biblical community of people seeking to love Jesus and serve their city as we think Jesus would. On a practical level, some who are attending Okolona are simply asking questions about Jesus and Christianity for the first time, while others have given their lives away in a local church for much of their lives. OCC members stretch across the spectrum of ages and backgrounds. Everyone is welcome.

JOYFUL WORSHIP
Okolona Christian Church has always been a place where we keep it very simple. It’s relaxed but focused, simple and authentic. We design our worship services to be a place for people to meet with God. During the gathering, our worship team will lead us in a number of songs. Our worship leaders seek to balance new, original music with some of the great hymns of our faith. As we sing, the focus is on Jesus! So regardless of what you sound like, feel free to sing aloud with us.

BIBLICAL PREACHING
The Bible is God’s gift to mankind! It shows us everything we need for life and death. The Bible unwraps the story of God playing out in human history. Every week a Pastor will teach straight from the Bible in a challenging and practical way. We encourage you to bring your Bible with you. If you do not have one, feel free to use (or take) one of ours.

At Okolona, you’re welcome to wear whatever you’d like. There is no set dress code, although the attire is more on the casual side. Just be you.

Middle school and high schoolers have their own programming designed with them in mind! Middle School will meet at 11:00 AM on Sunday, and High School will meet at 6:00 PM on Wednesdays! On Wednesdays, students meet at 6:00 PM for their small groups. Visit our OCC Students page for more information.

Our OCC Kids ministry offers a vibrant and fun experience for children from birth to 5th grade every Sunday at 9:30 AM or 11:00 AM. Plus special Wednesday night groups for our Pre-Teens (4th-5th graders). There’s lots of fun to be had at OCC Kids, where every week, our leaders pour into the next generation, raising up the next generation to love and follow Jesus! Visit our OCC Kids page for more information.

Absolutely! You’re welcome to use our Rock & Relax Room — a peaceful space designed just for parents and young children who aren’t quite ready for programming. This room offers a quiet, comfortable environment where you can still enjoy the service while your child plays or rests nearby. We get it — every family moves at their own pace, and we’re glad to support you however we can.

We want to talk with you and support you. You can talk with a pastor or caring leader who’d love to help you figure out your next step at church and in your relationship with Christ. You can also visit The Family Room in the Lobby on any Sunday!
