Volunteer Builders will be a mix of part-time Builders and full-time Builders.  Most Builders are part-time Builders who come and build on Friday and Saturday.  Full-time Builders sign up for an entire week or more.

To become a Solid Rock Builder, just come to the building site. You don’t need to fill out any paperwork in advance.  You’ll be asked to sign a short application form when you arrive.  We start working at 7:00am on Thursday, Friday and Saturday.  Come whenever you can make it, and drive safely.  No work on Sunday.  Sunday service is at 10:00am.

Bring your friends and family.  In addition to builders, we need all kinds of support people from supplying material to serving food. Come experience the awesome power of spiritual fellowship working shoulder-to-shoulder with other builders.

Solid Rock Builders began assisting them to build a church in July 2006.  Excel Engineering was hired as the architect.  A concept plan was completed in April 2007, and detailed architectural drawings were finished in May 2007.

Oakbrook Church – The small congregation of Oakbrook Church in Oshkosh, WI has been without a church for 14 years.  God has blessed Oakbrook Church and they plan to build a 10,610 square-foot church this late-summer/fall 2007.  The only way Oakbrook Church can financially afford to build is with volunteers help.
