WHAT TO EXPECT
We understand it can be a little nerve racking coming to a new church for the first time. We want to make sure you are as comfortable as possible and at ease with you surroundings from the moment you arrive. Here is some information that will help put your mind at ease. You can even plan your visit ahead if that makes you more comfortable and we will be ready for you!
Welcome
We’re so glad that you decided to check out OCOG online. Take a minute to look through our site to get a glimpse of what we’re all about. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at 863.763.4127. Or if you prefer to, Contact Us now quick and easily.
OCOG is a church where people of all races, backgrounds and walks of life come together to worship and grow in their relationship with Christ. Some things we want you to expect: Freedom, Honesty, Love, and Change!
We have ministries tailored specifically to every member of your family. Our prayer is that, through the ministry of OCOG, you will experience first hand the love and the power of Christ in your life.
When Should I Arrive?
For Sunday morning worship we have two services. The traditional service starts at 8:30 AM and for a more contemporary service, the time is 11 AM. We also meet on Wednesday night of each week at 7:00 PM, in the sanctuary.
If you would like a tour of the facility or to check out a certain ministry, please fill out the “Plan Your Visit” and arrive 15 minutes early so someone can show you around.
What Should I Wear?
We want you to feel comfortable, so everything from dress up to casual. We are more concerned about YOU than about what you wear. Come as you are! Dress causal or dress up… it’s up to you. We will welcome you and accept you either way!
What Do You Have For Kids?
We love seeing children enjoying coming to church and loving God! We have age-specific nursery that kids can enjoy for ages 3 and under. We also have school-age classes available for children ages 3 through 12. While parents are experiencing worship and teaching in OCOG main services, we are giving their children the exact same experience in Wave Makers.
Check out more on our information about all this by heading over to our Ministries page. For your convenience we have baby-changing tables located in the nursery and also have changing tables in all our restrooms. We now have a new mother’s room located in the front foyer. OCOG also serves hot breakfast for the children every Sunday morning in the fellowship hall. On Wednesday evenings we also serve hot meals, and have classes for every age!
We believe the Bible should never be boring, good leaders always care, and worship can be really fun! Our purpose is to guide children to put their faith in Jesus, and to teach them who God is and how He wants them to live.
What About Jr High and High School Ages?
If you are in Jr. or Sr. High School, Anchor Youth Ministries is the place to be!
