People meet Jesus at every OCC service, every weekend. We envision our meeting space as a more welcoming, ambience-rich and appealing environment where believers are inspired and non-believers introduced to a life of Loving God. This includes upgrading audio/video technologies, carpet installation and maximizing the room as a venue that comfortably houses gatherings of 1,500, 3,000 and 5,000.
God has provided an incredible facility for us and we want to maximize that gift by bringviting as many people as possible. We are exploring options to provide multiple worship venues on-site that would appeal to a diverse Eastside and Seattle population (including a Spanish and Portuguese speaking venue).
As part of our vision to expand to multiple venues, our second family-friendly venue will be in OCC’s south lobby and coffee cart area linking people via video LIVE to OCC’s Sunday services.
People in China, Iraq and other remote locations are now choosing to worship with Overlake via OCC.ORG each week! Our vision is to construct an easily accessed online theater that will allow them (and many others) to participate more fully with the OCC family as we worship together. This Web venue would become a resource for OCC LifeGroups as well.
While God has always supplied our needs, it is wise to restore an adequate buffer for emergency or unexpected circumstances. We seek to build a legacy so that God’s work at Overlake not only benefits ourselves and the current generation…but the generations yet to come.
Our children will also serve Him. Future generations will hear about the wonders of the Lord. His righteous acts will be told to those not yet born. They will hear about everything He has done.
Psalm 22:30-31
