Managing

Managing the service is an important role on a Sunday. It involves overseeing other people’s roles and ensuring they have what they need, alongside being responsible for any problems that arise such as there being no projector for the song words, or someone being ill and finding another to take over their role. Duties include arranging bibles, leaflets on tables, setting up creche room, tidying up after the service and even putting up signs for the toilets!
It’s not glamorous or ‘up the front’, so may suit you down to the ground! The main benefit is that you don’t miss out on the service for the most part (although you do need to be ready to help if any need arises), and once you’ve done it a few times, the tasks needed to be done each week become second nature!

We at Oak Tree strongly believe that every time we meet together whether it be for a central meeting or in our Branch Groups, we should take time to pray for each other. It is great to meet our friends but we also expect to meet with The Living God! Every meeting is an opportunity if required, to share a problem, seek God’s wisdom or ask for his healing (Testimonies).
As part of our normal activity we at Oak Tree have a Prayer Ministry Team trained up to pray wisely and in the power and love of the Holy Spirit. We don’t want anyone to go home from one of our meetings feeling that they could not get help for something that was bothering them. On countless occasions we have seen God draw near to people in their suffering and struggle as we have prayed for them.
As a church we want to take seriously John 14:12 where Jesus himself says “I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing”. This included opening the eyes of the blind and even raising the dead!
We shall be running regular training events for those on the team. Opportunities to attend training sessions are open to team members and we shall also run introductory sessions for new members from time to time. However, the church leadership does reserve the right not to use on the team all those who attend these sessions. For further details please do contact us.
