                                          Journey of faith

State Of The Church 2023 coming soon
In 1988 I was at a men’s meeting and the pastor asked us to state and proclaim our five-year plan. I got up and said I wanted to start a business and with that business I wanted to be able to seamlessly flow into ministry. I wanted the freedom to make my own hours and donate time to serve the body of Christ. At the same time, Laurie was ministering and mentoring children and moms in the neighborhood. Some of whom became our first members of Oasis. Sure enough, the time came for us and we began a small home-improvement company. With the freedom we were able to volunteer at a local Christian school. Over time, we desired to serve the Lord more. I told the Lord I was willing to swing a hammer for the rest of my life according to his will. Laurie did not want a man plan but a God plan. At the appointed time, (June 1993) a small home Bible study developed into a full-time ministry. The Lord spoke to our hearts to go full-time and to trust him for the finances. He said he would raise the people up that would be supportive of the ministry. As I read scripture I see that it confirms that. Here are three verses.


1 Timothy 5:18 (KJV)
For the scripture says, You shall not muzzle the ox that treads out the corn. And, The labourer [is] worthy of his reward.


1 Corinthians 9:14 (KJV)
Even so has the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel.


Galatians 6:6 (KJV)
Let him that is taught in the word communicate ( support ) unto him that teaches in all good things.


God has been faithful for the last 27 years to be true to His promise. Pastor Laurie and I are honored to serve the Lord and his people all these years. Thank you for sharing that honor with us. We love you all.

Our Vision For Oasis 

A spiritual Oasis designed to bring refreshment and renewal to the Body of Christ. ​​​
  1. For those spiritually "burned out" who need to recover from legalism.
  2. For those who need physical healing.
  3. For those hungry for the prophetic Word.
  4. ​For those looking for the move and power of the New Song and gifts of the Spirit
Four Rhema words at this time for Oasis Ministries NY
  1. Times of refreshing in the presence of the Lord Acts 3:19
  2. You are released for increase! 11 Corinthians 8:9 / 9:8
  3.  His yoke is easy and His burden light  Matthew 11:28-29
  4. Out of your belly will flow rivers of living water John 7:37-38
Unless the Lord provides further instruction and provision we will stay focused on three main items in our mission statement
  1. Intimacy with the Father through the Worship of God in the spiri
  2. Faith in God Through the Rhema Word of God
  3. Growth through doing the Works of God in Demonstrations of the Spirit and Power.
Each ministry has a grace to do what it is called to do. 
By God's grace ​ we will stay in our grace
