You’re welcome here.
We're still learning how to live the way Jesus taught, and how to know Him and each other better along the way.
We get it wrong sometimes. When we do, we keep going, together, with grace and honesty. What we hope for is simple: that people meet God here, build real friendships, and take Christ's love home to their families and neighborhoods across the St. Croix Valley.

Your First Service
Come with questions. Leave with connection.
Sunday service starts at 10 AM and runs about 75 minutes. If you'd like, come early for prayer at 9:30. It's a quiet time to pray for the morning and ask that God would have His way, not ours. After the service, stick around for snacks and conversation.
Nervous about walking in? Don't be. Come as you are. Greeters will be at the door, kids check-in is secure and easy, and there's coffee waiting. Grab a cup and a seat.
Church happens whenever people gather.
Our app helps you stay connected during the rest of the week.
Sunday worship is only part of it. Small groups, shared meals, serving together, and prayer are where people really get to know each other. Open Church Center to see what's coming up and pick one thing to show up for.
MEET ONE OF OUR SHEPHERDS
Senior Pastor since 2024
Josiah is a board-certified chaplain and Army veteran with a Master of Divinity and a BA in Pastoral Studies. He'd rather people see what he believes in how he lives than only hear it from the front. That means following Jesus with humility, caring for people with compassion, and trusting God in the hard seasons as much as the good ones. He brings that training, that experience, and a real love for small rural communities to OCC.

What happens with my kids?
Head to the kids check-in station at the east entrance. Your child gets a name badge and you get a matching parent tag for pickup. Let the team know about any allergies or special needs and they'll note it on the badge. Every kids volunteer has passed a background check. We have Sunday morning programs for nursery through sixth grade. Nursery through 3rd grade have their own program for the whole service. 4th through 6th grade stay in for worship and head out to their class when the message starts.
