Financial Updates

Fourth Quarter Review

We are encouraged when looking at the finances of the end of the 2025 – 2026 Fiscal Year. In the fourth quarter, both the General Fund and Building Fund offerings exceeded our anticipated giving thanks to the faithful generosity of the people of Oasis. We exceeded our projected Building Fund expenditures in the last quarter of the month due to expenses related to our Phase II expansion project, but continued to remain under budget for the year as a whole. Our General Fund expenses were approximately $16,000 less than budgeted. That, along with the increased offering, helped offset lower giving totals seen earlier in the year. We continue to see many new individuals and families week after week and are honored when they choose to make giving part of their worship. 

A Deeper Look

Oasis Church has two main funds supported by the generosity of the people of Oasis: the General Fund and the Building Fund. The General Fund sustains the work and ministries of Oasis, including facilities, staffing, ministry operations, and paying down our current debts. The Building Fund, where all Jairus Project donations go, is and will be used to pay for building related projects like the road widening, architectural drawings, future parking, and other expenses related to Phase II expansion.

This fiscal year, 72.6% of gifts went to the General Fund and 27.4% of giving was directed to the Building Fund. This split keeps us in a healthy position throughout the year — continuing to keep existing ministries funded as our Building Fund continues to grow for future expenses and construction.

Other than the regular day to day ministry work that is regularly visible to the church, we continue to support missions, have partnered with a Church Planting network (Carolina Movement), care for individuals and families in need through benevolence, and see many choose to be baptized and experience new life in Christ! While regular giving supports all of our day to day operations, your financial support is reaching much further than any of us could ever imagine!

Looking Ahead

Wrapping up the fiscal year on a high note, we are expectant of how God will continue to use the faith and generosity of Oasis Church to further His name and His Kingdom going into the 2026/2027 budget year. 

The chart to the left shows our total General Fund and Building Fund offerings for the full year, as well as our budgeted income for the 2026/2027 fiscal year. Our staff has gone through a budgeting process, making decisions on where they are going to make the best use of the funds so generously given to Oasis in support of their ministry work.

This coming year, we are looking forward to the many opportunities we will have to present Jesus to those who don’t know Him and pursue Him with those who do. We will gather together in connection, community, and worship – we will celebrate baptisms and new life in Christ, Men’s and Women’s breakfasts and events, the launch of Oasis Academy classes, Christmas, Easter, and surely many more offerings as we seek all that God has for us and His people here at Oasis Church.
