A Message from Oakdale HS Girls


Exciting News from Sunday, September 24

What an amazing 5 weeks it has been seeing what God can accomplish through our obedience and sacrifice! As of today, 9/25, at noon, God has raised about $1.55 million in cash with almost $1 million committed for the next 3 years! About 200 Oakdale families are represented in these numbers along with partners from around the nation. What an awesome God we serve!

We also have wonderful news that we were able to secure a loan from Sandy Spring Bank for the remaining amount of money! God is faithful and has provided a way for us to remain in our property. Hallelujah!

The bank is willing to work with us to reduce the loan amount as more money is raised. Every dollar donated helps reduce the loan and interest we would have to pay back. If you have not done so already, we invite you to spend time praying and listening to God's call for your family. Then respond, as you are able, in obedience. He will honor each sacrifice. Please see number 4 below for more information on how to give.

Keep praying and come ready to share disciple-making stories from fasting this past weekend next Sunday morning. Thank you for your obedience and sacrifice. May God get the glory! 


Oakdale Church’s total indebtedness is currently $2 million, in the form of a loan with Sandy Spring Bank. That $2 million is what is outstanding from the $4.5 million building project from 2014. To disaffiliate from the UMC, we need to pay the UMC $4 million.
