2010 Revival and Thanksgiving Service at OBMBC

"If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I wil...l hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land." 2 Chronicles 7:14

Our God is great! Many who has come to this event surely been blessed. Young and Mature worshiped in one accord with spiritual songs and messages. O.B.M.B.C.'s thanksgiving moment was delightful when collated together with Revival worship. We give thanks for His wonderful grace that brings us into a cycle of mission. The mission returns home. Oakland First Baptist Church has rich history of home missionaries, Grace and Gorden Sea-Grave who went to Burma during 1900s. The church allocated 50% of annual budget to be used in the Burma mission. Out of that 33% of annual budget of O.F.B.C was actually used for mission works in Burma. We praise God for the beautiful sanctuary and education building to be entrusted in our hands as O.F.B.C. is shifting their ministry direction. We thank God for being entrusted us to be a good stewardship of this ministry. It is so meaningful for us to give thanks as we pray, seek and turn in our revival moment. There were eight churches and organizations participated this event annually. May our hearts be filled with Spirit and remember to pray in humility, seek His face, and turn away from our wicked ways. May God bless everyone who participated in it.

Do You Know What I Know? at Christmas Eve

I was wondering, how to celebrate the Birth of Christ in the best way that we can? Sure enough! It is the only way to know how, to be able to feel once again just like Christmas night in Bethlehem. Shepherds, Angels, Wise men, Mary & Joseph, etc.. must be there to feel Christmas spirit. Above all, the true Christmas message that we can all agree on is "peace on earth, goodwill toward man." So how to tell the story of Christmas this year again? Small and humble way that we can, "let the animals tell the story of the Savior's birth!"



Mary & Joseph is pretty serious about doing the show. Look at them, they already selected their costumes. What about the animals? Oh! yes, they are fully dressed up. Just see for yourself, the Meewow! cat show off her claws. "You better watch out, you better not cry..."



Angels shall sing praises and trumpets shall sound that night, Oh what a night! Come and worship with us to feel, to be healed, and to adore Him once again. Merry Christmas to you all.




The address is 534, Twenty Second Street, Oakland, CA 94612. Time, 6:00 PM worship at sanctuary and drama at 7:30 PM in the Gym.

Global International Mission Rally

Recently, some of us attended the Global International Mission Rally event at San Jose. About twenty churches attended this event. Missionaries shared their mission experiences and motivated us to do mission work. We are impressed with the missionaries from South Africa and Central America. Definitely God is at work with people in the world. He is still saving people from their sins.

The question is are we doing enough to evangelize people here in our surrounding areas? By the way, we presented Burmese song and offer prayer during this gathering. Thank you for everyone that come along and join us in this special annual mission event.

In the end, my eyes still see vividly how the pastors, missionaries, and leaders of churches come together and holding hand to hand to pray for the nations. May God bless our gathering as we pray for the mission here and far.
