- April 5th, 2020: Sunday services are “drive-up” style outside. Lubbock mayor gave us the “Greenlight”. Loud-speakers and pastor will be setup outside. To respect “social distance”, attendees will sit in their vehicles while they listen to the service.
- Due to covid-19 public health concerns and city stay-at-home order, we have to postpone all other inside activities at Oakwood UMC. We will advise when it is safe to return to normal operations. God bless, stay safe, help others to stay safe. We all need to be wise and mindful. See the Lubbock city announcement here: https://www.facebook.com/cityoflubbock/videos/1373284062872170

Who We Are?
We celebrate the Creator. Oakwood is full of people who want to love God and their neighbors a little more each day. We are the kind of church where you can find a friend. Love is a fruit in season at all times, and within reach of every hand. It is the greatest gift anyone can give. We are located at: 2215 58th St. Lubbock, TX 79412 – (Google Maps Link) (2 blocks East of University & 58th)
Communion
We believe the Holy Communion table is open to all; it's Christ’s table, not ours. We believe the elements of Communion signify body and blood of Christ for us, helping us to be Christ’s body in the world today. TAP FOR MORECommunion
We serve Communion every Sunday at the Contemporary Worship Service, and the first Sunday of the month at the Traditional Worship Service.
Holy Trinity
We understand God to be three persons in one: Father, Son & Holy Spirit. We believe God the Father is the creator of life and the one who sent Jesus Christ the Son to bring salvation to all on earth. TAP FOR MOREHoly Trinity
We believe Jesus died for the sins of humanity and rose from the dead. We believe that the Holy Spirit is God’s present activity in our midst.
Baptism
We believe baptism is a symbol of new life and a sign of God’s love and forgiveness of our sins. Through baptism we are joined with the Church and with Christians everywhere. We will baptize persons of any age. TAP FOR MOREBaptism
We baptize by sprinkling, immersing, or pouring. It is our understanding that baptism should only happen once in a person’s life. Since this is a sign of God’s love, we do not believe it can be done incorrectly.
“Boots on the Ground” is our neighborhood ministry. We work with Oakwood Baptist Church, Vandelia Church of Christ, and Generations to reach our community. Click to learn more about Boots on the Ground.
“The messages that we communicate by our lifestyle are the most powerful messages that we can send. People are watching and listening. Not to the messages that we wish we could give, but to the one we can’t help but give – what we show by the way we conduct our everyday lives.”
