The cost will be about $22 for all five journals (about $30 total with taxes and shipping). You may want to consider bundling with your GC members! Another option is to use a notebook and journal along the books of the Bible. The church will be providing special bookmarks with the schedule of readings for each book. Information on how to get a bookmark will be provided soon.
Bible Reading Plan Bookmarks for Psalms: Bookmarks can be picked up at church. They will be in a bin placed right in front of the main door (parking lot side) of the EC Building.
Acts 8:4 Forum
We’ve heard a lot during this past Missions Month about ways of bringing our passions, experience, and skills into communities that know little or nothing about Christ. Are you curious and want to explore the possibilities? This sign-up is only for gauging interest in joining an Acts 8:4 Forum. The forum would be a place where you can meet (zoom for now) to learn more, network, and explore what God may have for you and your job skills and passions. If you have further questions, please contact: TK.Watanabe@odpcec.org
NEW! Did you know our church now has a Diaconate Fund? As the newest part of our Care Ministries, the Diaconate Fund is a way for our church to take care of those in need in our midst through short-term financial relief.

Bible Reading Plan: 2021
This past year, we read through Genesis to Revelation and saw the Bible as one story, interwoven with many stories, but ultimately about the Gospel of Jesus Christ. This year, we want to read the Bible at a slower pace, encouraging you to meditate upon Scripture, to journal your responses to God's word, and to write down your prayers.
