Local Action Teams

Join one of our Local Action Teams and experience practical “hands on” ways in which to participate and serve individuals and communities. These teams provide exciting opportunities for personal growth and ways in which you can “put your faith in action” by working in urban areas.

Oasis Local Action Teams are ways in which individuals, churches, schools and organizations can volunteer in the local community for one day to six months. In partnership with local churches and non-profit organizations we work side by side teaching “catch-up” education to children at risk , visiting and praying for the elderly in convalescent centers, feeding and caring for men, women and children who are destitute or homeless.

It is our aim to build relationships regardless of race, culture, political, social and economic background, learn to share in each in each others lives through our unique gifts and talents, food, music, art, dance, worship, sports…etc, and serve one together in a “practical way” for the mutual empowerment and transformation of individuals and communities to live as God intended.

Summer in the City

Our Oasis – "Summer in the City" team is a great opportunity for individuals, students and church members from suburbia and the inner city to share life together. This is a time where we celebrate each others unique and diverse talents, gifts, culture, food, race and background. Get to know one another through our life stories, sports, games, the arts…etc. and Put our Faith in Action by serving individuals and community members in Urban NW Pasadena.

Possible activities include:

• Participate in each others culture, food, life experience and hobbies
• Visit and encourage the elderly at a local Convalescent Center
• Serve men, women and children living in on the streets.
