OUR BELIEFS

Oaktree is an Anglican evangelical church with a charismatic ethos. We hold to the historic creeds of the church, the authority of the Scriptures, and the atoning work of Christ in his death and resurrection.

Our Mission

 

Our mission is to glorify God, proclaiming and following Christ, in the power of the Holy Spirit. We are committed to the mission of the world-wide church. We seek to be a bold witness in our city and community, and to welcome and reach out to people of all nations in the power of the Spirit.

  • What this means is:

    • Glorify God

      We focus all our attention on God. He is the hero in all our stories. We want the whole world to know how amazing God is.

    • Proclaim and Follow Christ

      We declare Jesus’ message near and far. We grow people who love Jesus and follow Him and we love one another, as Jesus taught.

    • In the Power of the Holy Spirit

      We seek the presence of God in our lives and our meetings. We rely on the Holy Spirit to empower us in all that we do.
