Weekend of October 4
Bring your kids and celebrate fall with us!
Join us for Pumpkins & Praise on Saturday, October 24 from 10am–12pm at the Borner Farm in Cottage Grove. We’ll enjoy a morning together celebrating the season and learning how carving a pumpkin can help tell the Gospel story. Bring your own pumpkin to carve or paint—we’ll provide the tools! Afterwards, enjoy a hayride, snacks, and crafts. Invite a friend—everyone is welcome! Click here to register.

Impact little learners in Cottage Grove
We have an easy opportunity to make a difference in our community! We’re partnering with SoWashCo CARES to provide Goldfish crackers for ECFE programs at seven elementary schools in Cottage Grove. You don’t need to purchase the crackers; just pick them up at church and deliver them at your convenience. This can be a one-time thing or an ongoing monthly commitment. For more info, or to help deliver, email Melissa Borner.
Belong beyond Sunday
Life is better when we don’t do it alone. Small groups are one of the best ways to build meaningful friendships, grow in God’s Word, and walk through life’s joys and challenges with others. Whether you’re new to Oaks or have been here for years, click here to find a group to belong to.
Ladies, Women’s Ministry fall offerings start next week!
Ladies, looking for a place to connect, grow, and spend time with other women? Oaks Women’s Ministry is offering Bible studies, fellowship, and prayer gatherings on Tuesdays this fall, beginning October 6, 6:30–8:30 pm at Five Oaks Church. Questions? Email Angie Corbett, for info and to get on our mailing list.
Help grow the next generation
Every child who knows they are loved by Jesus has someone who chose to show up. As Oaks Kids grows, we need more leaders to help kids know Jesus, feel valued, and grow in faith. Whether you teach, welcome families, serve in a classroom, or support a child one-on-one, you can make an eternal impact—even serving once a month! Email Kayleigh Allred to get started.
