You will find ORBC uniquely balanced in our preaching and teaching. Our preaching is conservative because it is based on God’s Word. Our attitude and application is compassionate, because it is based on modeled after Christ. We love people and love to serve people. This does not mean we have compromised any methods. Actually, as a result of seeking biblical basis for our methods, our methods are fresh, creative and practical.

Our church is filled with people from all age groups, backgrounds, and professions. We love singles, families, children and teenagers!

You will love the energetic singing of great, familiar hymns and enjoy new songs written by current writers. You will find the music at ORBC to be traditional and vibrant. Our congregational singing is accompanied by a piano and orchestra. It is a wonderful thing to come together as a church and sing with our whole heart together in worship.

You will find that ORBC is uniquely balanced in our application of God’s Word. God’s Word presents a balanced approach of ministering both to the people inside the church and outside the church.

The people outside our church are served through community opportunities like Neighborhood Watch, Mission Trips both domestically (disaster relief trips, New York City mission trips) and internationally (Belarus, Mexico, Quebec), Seasonal Musicals for the community, KARM ministry, seasonal festivals, Choices Resource Center involvement, teen student outreach events and many more.
