Winter is here, and that means it's time for our 2026 high school ministry retreat to Seven Springs Resort for fun, fellowship, and Bible study! The dates of the retreat are Saturday, February 14th - Monday the 16th. PLEASE NOTE, similar to last year we will leave on Saturday and come back on Monday. We plan to meet at OBF at 9AM on the 14th to load the vehicles and hit the road! We'll stop for lunch around Columbus, then proceed to the rental home about 10-15 minutes away from the resort. On the return trip, we will be eating lunch on the road and arriving back at the church around 5PM. Early bird pricing for this retreat goes through January 31st and will be $250. After that date, the price will increase to $275. This price includes skis, lodging, and food, with the exception of lunch on the drives to and from the retreat. Students will need to bring additional spending money for those lunches, and additional spending money if they plan to do other activities at the resort (mini golf, arcade, snacks, bowling, etc). NOTE: the resort is now completely cashless so purchases there will need to be via debit/credit card. There are scholarships available to cover any costs needed for students. Please let me know if cost is a factor and we will ensure that your student(s) are able to come on this retreat! SIGN UP HERE

Are you interested in being baptized as a public profession of your faith in Christ? The next baptisms will take place on Sunday, February 22nd. If you would like to learn more about baptism and the opportunity to publicly declare your faith in Christ, please complete this interest form. A staff member will follow up with you to schedule an interview.

We will be having a membership class on Sunday, March 1st after second service, at noon. It will be held upstairs in the Loft. A light luncheon will be provided during the class hour. This membership class is not only for those who are interested in becoming members. It is also a great “first step” in getting to know more about Oxford Bible Fellowship! You will hear from several elders about our history, our leadership, our doctrinal statement, and other things that make us distinct from other churches in the Oxford area. Please register to attend here.
