Friendship International

Friendship International is a ministry to foreign born women and their preschool children. This is a great opportunity for women to reach out and minister to women from around the world with Christ's love.  We have women from 20 - 25 different countries, many of whom have never heard the gospel of Christ.  We meet on Thursday mornings during the Edmond school year from 9:30 AM to 11:30 AM.

Although the meetings are held at Highland Park Baptist Church during the school year, observing Edmond school calendar for days off, the majority of the volunteer teachers and workers are from Edmond's First Baptist Church.  Our church does support the ministry financially.

Please watch as the 2009 - 2010 dates and refreshment schedule become available.
