Originally established in the Oildale community within Bakersfield in 1919 and incorporated in 1938, OBCC has a long history as a family friendly non-denominational church. Woven into the fabric of our history is the conviction to never turn away an opportunity to respond to the needs of others.  Today, that same conviction is reflected in our mission statement, "to be a church that shares the fullness of life in Jesus Christ with weary people from all walks of life."

At OBCC, our Sunday worship and weekly activities are designed to create opportunities for every person to know Christ, grow in a Christian community, and go out in Christian service.

Located in the northwest Bakersfield community of Rosedale, our goal is to be a family friendly church that shares Christ’s message of hope through worship, discipleship, and svice.er

Whether you visit for the first time or have been with us for many years, our priority is to make sure that you feel welcomed, valued, and appreciated. So, ready to experience life to the fullest? Then, come grow with us! You’ll be glad that you did.

_{Our Pastor}

Thanks for checking us out! I have been privileged to be the pastor of OBCC since June 2017. I have served in ministry in various locations including Michigan, Oklahoma, Kansas and Washington state pror to moving to Californis. I was born and raised in Whiteholl, Michigan, then served in the U.S. Marine Corps. While stationed in Soutern CA I was introduced to Jesus Christ. On that day at church I also met Sandy Asbury, who one year later I was blessed to marry. We have three children scattered across the country. I love people, I love being a pastor, and I love Olive Branch Community Church. I hope you will visit us and when you do, make sure to introduce yourself to me.

May God bless you,

Bill Vincent
