Oilfield Christian Fellowship
Of The Permian Basin2014 Oil Show & Beyond
In 1991, a drilling engineer Jim Teague, and a salesman, John Bird, decided to host a breakfast in order to get to know other Christian's in the oil industry. Only advertised by word of mouth, remarkably 46 men and women showed up at 6 AM for the first meeting! Everyone enjoyed the camaraderie so much they decided to meet monthly for lunch, thus the Oilfield Christian Fellowship was founded and within a few months, as many as 250 were attending.

Today OCF luncheons and dinners are held in Canada, Colorado, Oklahoma, Texas, Louisiana, Wyoming, and Pennsylvania, with more chapters in the making. Here speakers share how they came to know Christ and what He is doing in their lives. Because of this, thousands of men and women have been encouraged, lives have changed and many have accepted Christ for the first time.
In the summer of 2000 a Bible ministry was begun whereby oilfield employees would be supplied with Bibles in the language of the country where they were sent.

To date over 120,000 Bibles have been hand carried to 46 countries, in 22 languages.
In September of 2003 John was inspired to create a custom made oilfield Bible which he named; God's Word for the Oil Patch, Fuel for the Soul. Twelve months later he and Bible supply chairman and drilling engineer Mike Chaffin had designed the first of its kind Bible specifically for the oil industry.
