As we step into a new year at The Oceanside Sanctuary and a renewed vision and mission, you are invited to lean into community and help us cultivate a Christian spirituality “reclaiming its calling to be known for love, liberation, and the celebration of God’s image in all people.”
It is with full hearts and a touch of bittersweet emotion that we share some important news: our beloved Family Minister, Claire Watson, will soon be transitioning off staff at Oceanside Sanctuary. This past Saturday, Claire was officially ordained as a minister in the United Methodist Church, an incredible milestone that opens the door to a new chapter.
June at OSC marks the season for our annual supporting member drive! As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we cannot operate without your generosity. So just like your favorite public radio station, once a year we invite you to become a supporting member of OSC.
May is our annual volunteer drive! As our church community grows, so does our opportunity to create an even more inclusive, inspiring, and impactful community of faith right here in North County. We believe that everyone has unique gifts and talents to share, and we invite you to join us in making a real difference through volunteering.
From the whole staff at the Oceanside Sanctuary, we want to thank you for making our annual year-end fund drive a success! Our goal was to raise $50,000 to support our Community Impact programs, and you helped us exceed that goal by raising $53,127!
November 21st 2024 marks our 149th birthday as a church and the beginning of our 150th year. This is an incredible milestone! Our church has existed longer than telephones, record players, or light bulbs! We would love to see you this coming Sunday November 17th for a 149th birthday celebration immediately after church in our new downstairs community room.
