COS I Love You

We at OC join others every year in COS I Love You‘s CityServe Day in Colorado Springs, Colorado. For those of you who are not familiar with this network of 100+ churches / organizations within our city, its driving passion is to “unite and ignite the Church to love the city.”

This is one way that OC joins other believers in working to bless our city. OC USA president Dean Carlson has represented OC at a downtown dinner with civic leaders, key pastors, and ministry leaders.

 

He’s also co-hosted a lunch with ministry CEOs and the leaders of COS I Love You in effort to build awareness and cooperation among ministry leaders about what God is doing in our city.

OC - Switchbacks Community Member of the Month

How exciting! We at OC were featured as the Community Member of the Match for the Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC (Football Club) vs FC of Tulsa in August! Before the soccer match, our One Challenge Video Promo was played at the stadium, and we hosted an information booth.

Following that match, OC alumni Robin and Teri Cook’s son Andrew played on the Unified team of the Switchbacks FC against the Union Omaha Unified team. The Unified teams’ mission is to create opportunities for people with disabilities to be included in all sports.

 

This was a fun way to get to speak with people from our local community about the work of OC. We love being part of the community and supporting local businesses!
