Purpose Statement:

Our ministry exists to bring children into age appropriate WORSHIP where they can BELONG and CONNECT to the family of God on a level they can best RECEIVE God’s message and GROW in their walk with Christ. Our children and youth will learn to SERVE and SHARE Christ in the world!

Climate 180 is the name of our Children’s Ministry at OCN and is lead by a wonderful team of staff and volunteers. Our team of leaders have a deep passion to “Connect Kids to God and Others!” Our goal is to provide a fun and interactive program tailored just for kids, no matter what age and grade, to help them know Jesus, want to know Jesus more, and grow spiritually as they build meaningful relationships with the other children and adults.
