Meet Our Elders
Our elders are volunteers appointed by our Pastor. They serve as shepherds of the church and assist in teaching, providing guidance, and act as caretakers of the church's spiritual well-being. Elders lead by example and uphold sound doctrine. These individuals are dedicated to providing support, guidance, and comfort to those in need. They are willing and prepared to engage in conversations & prayer with individuals seeking spiritual guidance, counsel, or simply a listening ear. Their wisdom and compassion make them valuable resources for emotional support and spiritual growth. Don't hesitate to reach out to our elders for support and guidance; they are here to provide the help you need with grace and love.
Meet Our Board of Deacons
Our church deacons are an essential component of our organization. They are volunteers and serve as the board for our church as a tax deducible 501c3 organization. The while the board is chaired by our Pastor, our Deacons are selected by a committee and then voted on by our members. They are spiritually mature leaders and pillars of support within the congregation. Their role primarily focus on the organization, financial, & practical needs of the community. This allows the elders to focus on ministry as we see in scripture. While these individuals primarily function in the organizational running of the church, you can always reach out to them for prayer and support.
Our Countless Dedicated Volunteers
Without the selfless service and the commitment of our volunteers OCC would not exist! Churches often begin with volunteers & a vision. A Sunday morning at OCC typically takes 20+ volunteers to provide all the services; worship, childcare, coffee & snacks, greeters, ushers, etc.

Osceola Community Church is blessed to have so many people willing to give their time in service to others and our community. Most of our leaders started as volunteers doing what may seem like modest tasks, but every role matters. Even Pastor Josiah attended and volunteered at OCC for almost 7 years prior to pastoring here. We are servants at heart and we pray that never changes!
