Touchy Topics Book Club: More Reading, More Discussion!
Our Touchy Topics Book Club is continuing conversation and study and reading and learning about all those issues that we know we need to talk about, but that can be hard to talk about…
Join us, the first Wednesday of every month at 6:30pm at Hartford Coffee Co.

Holy Humor Sunday
There is an old church tradition of celebrating the resurrection of our Lord with joy and laughter. With that in mind, we’ll be celebrating Holy Humor Sunday in worship this week. So, bring your very best bad joke, wear a silly hat, and prepare for all kinds of silliness and glee!
AMEN season is coming!
We are gearing up for another full summer of visiting mission teams at AMEN St. Louis! 
We’re scheduling service projects, processing requests and forms, gathering speakers, and hiring summer staff.
AND…we’re stocking up on toilet paper and garbage bags and box fans, too.
You can help support this growing neighborhood ministry! Check out our AMEN Amazon Registry. This is a great way for folks to support our community outreach from the comfort of their own homes! Order a couple of supplies to support the visiting summer teams, and have them shipped directly to the AMEN House. Or, if you’re local, and would prefer to shop local, feel free to pick up an wish list item off our Wish Board in the back of the sanctuary, shop at your favorite small business, and leave the items in the Large Assembly Room next time you’re in the building.
Thank you for supporting the ministry of AMEN St. Louis!
Pancakes!!
Join us for our 10th annual Pancake Supper and Fat Tuesday Celebration!
Tuesday 2/28 from 6pm-7:30pm at Oak Hill Presbyterian Church (4111 Connecticut St.)
Pancakes, sausage, ham and eggs will be served with all the toppings to make this a feast to be remembered!
This is a family friendly event with lots of good food and great fellowship to support Isaiah 58 Ministries.
You are invited to make a donation to support this critical neighborhood ministry at the door. Then come on in and eat all the pancakes your stomach will allow!
Can’t wait to see you there!

Third Fridays- Open Gym Night
Did you know our church has a gym?! Come check it out. On the third Friday of the month, we open up the old gym for basketball, floor hockey, soccer, volleyball, etc. And for those who don’t feel so sporty, we also have craft projects and food downstairs. All are welcome and bringing friends is encouraged!
We’re also always looking for adult volunteers for these events. Please contact the church office (office@oakhillpcusa.org) if you’re interested in helping out!
