    Who We Are and What We Do

The OAFC is a quasi-ministry of and operating under the auspices of Harbour Fellowship Church in St. Catharines, ON. We are a group of men, primarily from  the Niagara Peninsula, who meet and compete in outdoor sporting activities in order to strengthen ourselves and other men in discipleship and edification and enjoy fellowship in God's creation. We host numerous open events during the year as well as occasional meetings of special or topical interest for our members and guests. In addition, we are committed to assisting other Christian groups and charities through fund raising and support. Over the past decade we have contributed over $35,000.00 primarily through our Annual Wild Game Dinners and Marksmanship Challenge events.

We have endeavoured to extend the mission of the OAFC by supporting the needs of Christ-centred organizations for His glory and to further the Kingdom of God. Some recipients include:

  • Almirez Orphanage - Mexico
  • Hannah House - Port Colborne, ON
  • Christians In Action - Uganda
  • Niagara Prison Ministries - Thorold, ON
  • South Niagara Life Centre - Fort Erie, ON
  • Recycled Kids - Welland, ON
  • World Vision – Canada/International
