Harmony

Tags : 

“Let love be genuine; hate what is evil, hold fast to what is good; love one another with mutual affection… live in harmony with one another… if it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all. “  -Romans 12:4-8

 

Tonight we take a look at living in harmony with one another. We will dive into what it is to not just coexist but to live as one in community. How in order to move forward, in faith and in our lives, we must learn to fill in where others have blanks and rely on the support of those we trust when we ourselves are in need.

 

We gather at our usual time. Doors open at 3:30, dinner at 5:15, and the experience to follow.

 

Hope to see you out!

OASIS has received a generous grant from The Reinberger Foundation for which we couldn’t be more grateful.  This funding will be used to help five students in The Way program, who receive financial and spiritual support in order to graduate from high school, to attend post-secondary school or training, and to secure and maintain employment.  Bus passes, shoes for school, clothes for job interviews, books, groceries and driver’s training are just a few of the many resources provided.

Lives are being changed through the financial support of The Reinberger Foundation and OASIS is pleased to be one of the many agencies to receive their support!

We are pleased to announce…

We are pleased to announce that OASIS has been awarded $4000 from Witan for the sponsoring of students in “The Way” program. Please check out what Witan is all about on their website!

WITAN, initially founded in 1943 by seven young women, has grown to an active membership of over 300 remarkable women who give their time and money as volunteers to benefit the community.

Along with countless volunteer hours within the community, the Women of Witan donate approximately $50,000 per year to community organizations. The WITAN French Market, a 2 day juried/invitational show featuring artists selling their original works, is our major fundraiser. It is underwritten by WOW, our gala Patron Party.

Since 1943, WITAN has volunteered over 3 million hours in the community and granted over 1 million dollars to nonprofit agencies.
