Realizing Our Call!
As we enter 2021 and look to the year ahead, we yearn to come together as a congregation for worship and to fulfill our call to do the work of the Lord. How does your individual call connect to this congregational call? How do we do that in the face of a still dangerous pandemic? How can we commit to action going forward? We invite you to join with friends and members of the Oxford Presbyterian community for a Zoom retreat on Saturday, January 16, 2021 from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm. to explore these and other questions.
We will have small group discussions of questions such as those above and we will be blessed to have Rebecca Barnes, Coordinator of the PCUSA Hunger Program, join us for an inspirational reflection on our Calls.
In preparation for the retreat, we have recorded short videos for you to view prior to the retreat. Please click here to access the retreat video playlist on our OPC YouTube channel. In the playlist you'll find an invitation from Pastor Lawrence, a brief recap of our "Called to Life!" journey by Pat Gifford titled "How Did We Get Here?", an update on Eradicating Systemic Poverty by Anne Bailey, and an update on Caring for Creation by Carla Blackmar.

Years of study, prayer, reflection and action have brought us to this point in time. We are excited about this opportunity to gather in a unique way to envision our journey ahead!
