Vacation Bible School and OEP Playschool visitation program is another opportunity for OEPC to reach out to those in the local community that we serve. Each summer many children learn about Jesus Christ as Savior and provider of eternal life through OEPC's VBS program. Nearly half of those children are from families without a permanent church home. We reach out to those families several times throughout the year to encourage them to join us in worship. We also reach out in the same way to the families of OEP Playschool children that don't have a permanent church home.
Service Opportunity: Give Out Preparation, Visitation
