Burien Free Methodist Church Marks 120th Anniversary With Free Community Celebration

Burien Free Methodist, also known as Oasis Home Church, will mark its 120th anniversary with a community celebration on Saturday, March 28, according to organizers.

The free event will run from 1 to 5 p.m., and a celebration service will be held at 2 p.m. Organizers describe the afternoon as an open-house style gathering with time to reconnect and share stories, and to “celebrate what God has accomplished across generations.” Telling the next generation what God has done is a fitting focus for an anniversary (Psalm 78:4).

Organizers said the event is open to longtime members as well as newer attendees, with a focus on celebrating generations of community involvement. In a statement, they said: “We invite you to join us as we honor the past, celebrate the present, and look forward with hope to what God will continue to do in and through Oasis Home Church.”

“Whether Burien Free Methodist/Oasis Home Church has been your church home for decades or you are newer to our community, there is a place for you here,” organizers said.

The church has served as a neighborhood gathering place in Burien for more than a century, and the anniversary event is intended to highlight its continued role in the community.
