The Big Idea

What is the big idea? Oak Tree means different things to different people, but what comes across time and again is the central importance of relationship.

RELATIONSHIP:with God, each other, with local churches, & with the wider community around us.

This high value for relationship works its way through the fabric of Oaktree in our gatherings, community work and branch groups as we look for everyone to get into their relationship with Jesus more.

We are not a traditionally-styled church and visitors will not find a robed choir and lots of hymns and organ music. However, we hope a visitor might find a warm welcome, a family atmosphere and a group of people committed to serving God and each other.

Here us what people have said about us:

“Oak Tree is a community of people who are committed to each other.”

“It’s been an adventure since we started…like God’s adventure with us personally.”

“It’s a spiritual home, a place where I’m taught about God and Jesus and where I can come and worship. But it’s also a place where my friends are, a safe environment, a place to be myself.”

“At its heart Oak Tree means being part of a Christian community….”

“Oak Tree is a great church that is serving Acton and serving God—and we’re moving forward.”
