One Year Anniversary

In November it will be one year since Generation Church came into existence. The Lord has been so good in taking two dead congregations and creating one vibrant body in the middle of South Oceanside. In the last year we have seen 16 people be baptized, hundreds make decisions for Christ, join small groups and commit to membership. We have seen God use us to be a voice for the homeless in Oceanside. To say the least, God has been good

Easter Was Amazing

Our Easter weekend was amazing!
On Saturday we had somewhere around 400 visitors and on Sunday we had 341 people show up to worship. God has been so good to us and he continues to bless us. The Sunday after Easter is traditionally our lowest attendance of the year and we had 226 people in worship (a non holiday attendance record). Even more important than the number of people coming to our worship gatherings is the amount of decisions for Christ that have been made in the last few months. God has been so good to us and we look forward for further blessing

On April 28th we are having a Financial freedom conference at South Oceanside Elementary School. The event goes from 9:00 am till 1:00 pm and it is 100% FREE! Childcare and lunch will be provided.

Enter the Ring

One of the things that the leadership of Generation has been working on over the last few months is a process of discipleship called the RING. The ring is a series of classes designed to help people draw closer to God through transformation, worship, servanthood, community and outreach. It is a great way to get involved in the church and draw closer to Jesus. Hear are the classes

1. R re:Generation: this Class is a intro to who the church is and where we are going. It also talks about some of the things that are essential to the life of a believer. Baptism, Church, Communion. It is a great class for someone who is new to the church and wants to know what we are about, someone who is a new Christian or spiritually seeking.

2. I Intimacy With God: This is a class that touches base on how to develop a better personal relationship with God. Interpreting Scripture, Prayer, developing a community that sustains faith, becoming a generous Christian, plans for reading the Bible.

3. N Now Discover your Gifts: This is a class that teaches the theological concept of spiritual gifts and then helps you discover what your s are. In this class you will study what the gifts are, take an inventory about how to find yours. We will then counsel you and help you get involved in ministries where you can use your gifts.

4. G Go Share Your Story: This is a class that gives a person the ability to share their faith and their story without looking like a religious freak. Sharing the story of God does not have to be a scary thing. We also share what Generation Church's plan for World missions is.
