Wednesdays 1015a.m – 12 Noon

Oasis came into being eight years ago, to give emphasis to the older (50 plus age group) people in the church, many of whom would prefer a daytime – midweek meeting rather than going out in the evening. Although some enjoy the experience
of both.  

Why Oasis?

‘Oasis’, encapsulated the vision of providing a place for rest, recuperation, refreshment and fellowship in a warm and friendly atmosphere.

We begin with an informal time of coffee and tea, then move into a meeting with praise and worship, and ministry of the Word of God, either through preaching and teaching or discussion. 

We end with sharing a packed lunch; people really appreciate this opportunity to socialize together. On occasions we manage to provide the meal for everyone - which of course goes down well!

Each year (in May), we have a midweek ‘weekend’ away at Minsteracres Retreat Centre near Corbridge, when we mix informal times with worship and teaching sessions.  For some it is the only holiday of the year and it is much looked forward to.
