WELCOME TO OAKLAND! We're glad you chose to worship with us today.  Please take a moment to complete the Connection Card.  You can complete the card from the app by clicking the following link.

Imagine a broker who credited your account each morning with $86,400 and every evening took back whatever you didn’t use.  Well, every morning God credits us with 86,400 seconds.  Tonight, He’ll write off as lost what we do not invest.  We can’t accumulate any of it.  We can only live on today’s deposits.

To realize the value of a year, ask a student who has just failed his final exam.  To realize the value of a month, ask a mother who has just given birth to a premature baby.  To realize the value of an hour, ask lovers who have only one hour left before they are separated.  To realize the value of a minute, ask a student who just missed the bus.

Today is here, why do you think you will ever see tomorrow?
