Chaplaincy
 
School chaplaincy has exploded within Australian schools thanks to the Federal Government's funding. Chaplaincy provides support to students, staff and parents who are in need of mentoring, pastoral care, life skills, positive choices, support, a listening ear, etc.
We have a number of local school chaplains who call Oasis Church home. As a church we have had a long invovlement with school chaplaincy. Pastor Brett was a volunteer chaplain at Redbank Plains High for almost 8 years. Brett's wife Carolyn aslo provided volunteer chaplaincy services to Redbank Plains High for many years and is now the chaplain at Mt Ommaney Special School, Bronwin Illing-Smith is the chaplain at the Brisbane Youth Detention Centre and Sharman Irvine is the Scripture Union Dsitrict Coordinator for Chaplaincy across the City of Ipswich, the Fassifern valley and western suburbs of Brisbane.
Our church's invovlement also extends to the leadership of Woodcrest College Local Chaplaincy Committee with one of our elders Peter Surgeoner as chairman of this comittee.
