The Youth Group Car Wash has been rescheduled to Sunday, June 1st following our Sunday Morning Worship Service. The money raised will help fund the Praying Pelicans' Mission Trip in June. Pray for the youth group and for this trip specifically.

OFC Community will begin this year on Wednesday, June 4th. Come join us from 6:30 PM to 8:00 PM and help create VBS decorations for the entire church. You can make giant flowers or cement stands to put them on. We’ll be sawing large carpet tubes and PVC pipe for the trees. There's something for everyone! We need hot glue guns and medium to large sized cardboard boxes. Large appliance boxes would be great. If you have questions, contact Lauri Narem (614) 517-7429 or email lsjnarem@gmail.com.

KIDS: Take a closer look at God’s awesome creation to discover how big and powerful He really is! Join us for Lifeway VBS 2025 at Orange Friends Church Monday, July 14th thru Friday, July 18th from 6:30 to 8:30 PM!

PARENTS: Please register your child today, so he or she can join us for a blessed time! We are looking forward to spending time with your children, sharing the Gospel and seeing God work in their hearts!

Each spring, OFC serves our local community with a midweek ministry blitz called OFC Commission. This year, we’re focusing on the Mustard Seed project that is one of the three pillars of our five year vision - asking God to help us reach the international population around our church. Meet us at OFC at 6:30 PM on Wednesday nights through the end of May as we pray, disperse, and seek new relationships with people around us!

Our student ministry team will be traveling to Detroit, MI, to serve in inner-city ministry from June 21st to June 27th, 2025. We need your help! Please pray for our group! There is still time to support the youth with donations. If you would like to donate, please mark your check “Friends Youth” and drop it in the offering plate on Sunday morning, or you can give online to the “Friends Youth” fund at https://secure.myvanco.com/L-Z3PS/campaign/C-15GCQ.

Mark your calendars! The Market on Orange (a community outreach of Orange Friends Church) is returning to OFC this summer! Our annual farmer's market will run on Tuesdays from July 1st to August 12th from 4:30 PM to 7:30 PM in the church parking lot. The market will feature food trucks, loyal community vendors selling handmade gifts, specialty baked goods, fresh produce, eggs, and bread, live music, a children’s area with toys, stories, craft time, and volunteers, and great times! To see what vendors will be at the market, visit https://maps.managemymarket.com/7373.

If you would like to volunteer in any capacity, please write "Market on Orange" on your Connect Card.

We're reading through the entire Bible together in 2025! Pick up your copy of "The Five Day Bible Reading Plan" at the Welcome Center at the church or get a copy online at www.fivedaybiblereading.com.

Join us for a Bible study on Sunday mornings at 9:30 AM in the Courtyard Room. All adults are welcome!

There has been a refresh of our Care Ministry to increase our capacity to make sure the needs of the body are met. In addition to calling the church office, you can share a need through our new Care Team email address, care@orangefriendschurch.org. The care ministry is in need of more volunteers. If interested, contact the church office or add a note on your Connect Card.

Join us for our basketball and volleyball open gyms during the week in the Worship Center. Volleyball is held on Thursdays at 7:00 PM. Basketball is held on Sundays at 6:00 PM.

We are partnering with People in Need to do a bread drive since this is a food item they often need. Please bring loaves of sandwich bread to church (white, wheat, rye, etc.) and place on the table in the church lobby / café area.
