Oilfield Workers Sharing Christ Around the World

"Our fellowship is with our Father and His Son Jesus Christ" 1 John 1:3
Grow Your Relationship
With God

The Oilfield Christian Fellowship Bible Ministry is a multi-faceted outreach ministry dedicated to get the Word of God to men and women of the Oil Patch.

“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.” John 3:16

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was formless and empty, and darkness covered the deep waters.

We have partnered with Faith by Hearing, an organization committed to reaching the nations with the Word of God in audio.

14th ANNUAL IADC CHARITY CLAY SHOOT @ Westside Sporting Grounds
Mar 22 @ 8:00 am – 1:30 pm

 

On behalf of the IADC Houston Chapter, we are excited to announce the Thirteenth Annual IADC Houston Chapter Oilfield Charity Shoot to be held at Westside Sporting Grounds on March 22, 2024.  

TEAMS AND SPONSORSHIPS STILL AVAILABLE, THE REGISTRATION LINK HAS ALL THE DETAILS..

This years event will support the IADC Houston Chapter Scholarship Program, Home Run Hitters International, Inc. and the Oilfield Christian Fellowship (OCF), three outstanding organizations.

The Oilfield Christian Fellowship began in May 1991 as an outlet for Christians in the oilfield to meet each other. The OCF has evolved into many more forms of outreach, including a Bile ministry, Prayer Breakfasts, a Bible APP and Bible Studies.  Oil workers have carried over 300,000 Bibles in 52 languages to 67 countries around the world. Of those, over 250,000 are custom Oil Patch Bibles written in English, Spanish, Chinese and Portuguese. The long-term goal is to reproduce this unique Bible, God’s Word for the Oil Patch, Fuel for the Soul into every language in the world where there is an oil and gas presence.

Home Run Hitters International, Inc. (HRH) is a nonprofit, tax-exempt organization dedicated to young individuals with limited communication skills in addition to other disabilities.  HRH provides opportunities for these individuals to be esteemed and celebrated all while interacting with their surroundings and other individuals.  HRH achieves this by hosting four programs, each designed to offer unique experiences within stimulating and supportive environments.  HRH believes everyone has the opportunity to succeed, to compete, to make friends, and to receive words of praise.

As we did in previous years, each team will be eligible to win one pistol per team (two pistols per team for Platinum sponsors) as door prizes. We believe it is important to give back to participants in addition to the charities.

We hope you will join our efforts again this year and take pride in helping us support our scholarship recipients and these three worthy organizations.REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN!!!!!
