HIRE OF CHURCH PREMISES

Thank you for your interest in hiring out the church buildings. Oasis Christian Fellowship  does hire out its premises as part of its service to the local community. There are some limitations however, as to the purposes for which the buildings may be used. For example, we do not hire out the buildings for:

• adult parties, (although children's parties are considered but not for Halloween parties).
• use by political parties or politically-minded interest groups.
• for the use by other faiths for worship or religious ceremonies.
• for commercial business activities.
• any form of public entertainment.

We therefore make it a requirement that individuals or organisations making an application for the use of the church premises will be asked to declare the purposes for which the premises will be used.

 In summary, we welcome the use of the buildings for community purposes so long as the activities do not conflict with the values and beliefs of the church. The buildings are well kept and offer good facilities but naturally, there are some restrictions due to church use and due to the size of the rooms available.  Please see photos of the various rooms for hire below & on other pages under hire. The full hiring conditions are available from the church office. Please ask for details.
