Our mission is connecting: upward, inward and outward.
We are a group of people who share faith in Christ and a love for God. We strive to care for others by following the example of Jesus. We are welcomed by God, just as we are, and we pray that we welcome others in the same way. Come visit us!

We have discovered that the traffic noise is often too loud for all to fully participate in our socially-distanced fellowship.
So, we have decided to go to peoples’ homes for our gathering. The places we want to start meeting are at the homes of people who need prayers. If you would like to offer your front or back yard, let Pastor Mark know. We gather at 7pm for fellowship, prayer and Holy Communion. LOCATION: -Wed, Oct 7, CW & Sharon West’s yard (11633 SW 4th Terrace in Yukon.). -Wed, Oct 14, the Budzeins home (10305 Bonnie Castle Dr, Yukon) -Wed, Oct 21, The Hortons home (6101 N Sarah Rd, Yukon) We will update the locations as they are set.

https://www.facebook.com/rlcofficial/live/ Our New Prayer BoxThanks to Peter Borseth for a new prayer box by the driveway at RLC. This gift to the church was his Eagle Scout project.
We already have had some prayer request put in it! You are encouraged to drop off prayers or invite others to do so. What has already been in the box: “Bless this box to be a blessing to others,” several prayers of thanks to and love for God, a prayer for Tristen, prayers from a girl (name starting with A) for her father who had a heart attack, for her brothers, that her stepmom feels better and for a house, and a prayer from Halea telling God she loves her mom. Holy Cow Cluster: Bedlam Food DriveOur congregations have a friendly competition to see which congregation is the most generous in collecting food for our neighborhood food pantries. In addition to competing as congregations against each other, we have a competition between OU and OSU fans to see which team has the most generous fans. Last year RLC got second place and provided the impetus for OSU to defeat OU in generosity. We will begin collecting food soon, and will collect until the Bedlam game on Nov 21.
For more updates on the Holy Cow Cluster, go to About Us/Holy Cow ClusterHoly Cow Cluster. Reformation Sunday Boxed PicnicOn Sunday, October 25, we will be selling box lunches of hot dogs or brauts, with chips, a dessert and a beverage. Watch for upcoming details.
Pastor Visits and Prayer RequestsBecause of Covid-19, Pastor Mark has done very few personal visits. He has tried to connect with many of you by text, email, Facebook or phone, but that can’t replace face to face contact.
Want communion kits? Pastor will meet you on your front porch and check in with you and deliver your kits. Just let him know. Do You Want a Visit? Holy Communion? Pastor Mark makes house calls. If you want to do a visit (in your yard, socially distanced in your house, at a restaurant, park or coffee shop), let Pastor Mark know. If you would like to receive Holy Communion, or have communion kits delivered for the next Sunday, let Pastor Mark know. Also, please email Pastor Mark at prmark@rlcok.org if you have any prayer requests. Readings for Oct 14-25We continue to read through the book of Acts for the next month and a half. Pastor Mark posts devotions on the church Facebook page most days based on the reading for that day. Then, Pastor Mark’s sermon the next Sunday is based on what we have been reading. Here are the upcoming readings for October:
October 14: Acts 22:17-21 October 15: Acts 22:22-29 October 16: Acts 22:30-23:5 October 17: Acts 23:6-10 October 18: Acts 23:11 October 19: Acts 23:12-15 October 20: Acts 23:16-22 October 21: 23:23-30 October 22: Acts 23:31-35 October 23: Acts 24:1-9 October 24: Acts 24:10-21 October 25: Acts 24:22-27 Thank You for Your Regular GivingThanks for your faithful giving. The giving has dropped off a little bit as our Covid-19 isolation has stretched on. You can drop off offering at church Monday-Friday from 9-Noon, mail it in, bring to the drive-in (or one of the other events at church) or consider setting up Bill Pay from your bank. Thanks!

-Due to the spread of Coronavirus when singing, we will not be singing in the church at this time.
-Hand sanitizer will be available in every pew. You are also invited to bring your own.
