Events
March Prayer Night
As we step into spring break and the pace shifts for a moment, let’s begin this new season by turning our hearts toward the Lord.
Join us for an evening of prayer as we gather to seek Him together. Bring what this season has held for you so far. The full schedules. The unanswered prayers. The gratitude. The places where you are hoping for fresh growth.
We will spend time praying for our families, our church, our community, and the months ahead. Spring is a reminder that God is always renewing, always restoring, always bringing life in places that once felt dormant.
Let’s pause together and invite Him to do that work in us.
We would love for you to join us. 🌷 Feel free to arrive when you are able.

Hope you can join us. Let us know you’re coming here.
May Prayer Night
Take a break from the busy week and join us for an evening of prayer and conversation. We’ll lift up our families, friends, church, and community, and just take a moment to pause together. Everyone’s welcome—bring what’s on your heart and a friend if you’d like.
Women's Retreat
Save the date!
Step away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and join other Orchards women for a weekend of rest, connection, and refreshment in beautiful Central Oregon.
We’ll stay at a cozy lodge with plenty of space to relax, unwind, and have fun—think bikes, billiards, and a hot tub. The retreat will include times of worship, listening prayer, intentional reflection, and simply hanging out together. And of course, we’ll take advantage of the stunning outdoors for walks, fresh air, and the beauty of the season.
Come ready to rest, recharge, and enjoy meaningful time with God and with one another.
Registration will open in March.

Orchards Church Camp Out
It’s official! We’re making our July Campout an annual event.

This year, we’re looking forward to more of the same—disc golf, bike rides, marshmallow roasting, campfires, and plenty of time to relax, connect, and do life together as a church community.

We’ll spend time praying over:
Our kids and their friendships
Their teachers and school staff
Classmates and classrooms

The Harvest Party will be held indoors at Countryside in October. While the location and timing are different, the heart of the evening is the same: good food, great company, and plenty of fun.
We’ll still have:
The mechanical bull
A delicious meal
Dancing and music
Space to connect and celebrate together
