Bent Oaks Church of Christ
Rockport, Texas
Our members are very active and look forward to every opportunity to enjoy each other's company. The following are a few of the regular activities of the congregation.
First Sunday Eat & Meet
Game Night
Saturday Morning Pancake Breakfast
Birthday Celebrations
July 4th Fireworks and Barbecue
Men's Friday Morning Bible Study Breakfast
Women's Bible Study
The first Sunday of every month everyone brings too much good food and shares a meal after the morning worship service. There are always great new recipes and lots of opportunities to get to know everyone. Visitors are encouraged to stay and enjoy the good food and fellowship so that we don't have to take as many leftovers home. (Everyone shares their leftovers and seldom does anyone go home with the same food) On these Sunday's we enjoy our Family Friendly Sundays where instead of having evening services we stay after the meal and enjoy a devotional so that everyone has the opportunity to spend the evening enjoying their family time.
Once a month we enjoy time to try all of the latest games and a few old favorites. From 84 to 42 to Sequence to Sticks to Chickenfoot to Pegs and Jokers - Every new and hot game is brought to the table and everyone enjoys a snack and lots of fun playing and learning new games. The action is hot and heavy and there are lots of times when people talk TRASH (in a loving Christian manner).
Saturday Morning Pancake Breakfast
Every so often Daryl pulls on his chef's hat and cooks a mean batch of pancakes and sausage with others bringing other "heart healthy" foods for a great start to a Saturday.
Birthday Celebrations
Everyone enjoys a birthday party and we are no exception. Especially when the big ones come around.
July 4th Fireworks and Barbecue
Every July 4th we get the opportunity to enjoy a front row seat for the Rockport firework display. After enjoying a short devotional and a great cookout, we pull up the lawn chairs in a member's yard to relax and watch the great Rockport firework display.
Men's Friday Morning Bible Study Breakfast
The men meet each Friday morning at 6:30 a.m. to start the day with a Bible study and a great breakfast. The restaurant of choice is the Taqueria Puerto Vallarta on Hwy 35 North near Tackletown - a frequent breakfast stop.
Women's Bible Study
Our ladies meet at the building on Tuesdays at 10:00 to study the Word and also take part in various service projects. One just has to look around the building to see how busy our women are. Also included in their projects have been Thanksgiving and Christmas baskets and other items to make sure that the children know they are treasures from God.
