A Ministry of Presence and Encouragement
Many in our church family are no longer able to attend in person due to age, illness, or physical limitations - yet they remain deeply valued and dearly loved. The Homebound Ministry is a beautiful opportunity to be the hands and feet of Jesus by serving those who may feel forgotten. Whether it's reading a short scripture, offering a prayer, sharing a smile, making a phone call, or simply listening - your presence matters.
You don’t need special skills - just a willing heart and a little time. Even an hour a month can brighten someone's entire week. If you feel led to serve or want to learn more, please contact Gloria at 405-513-0851 or Keith Haygood at 405-513-2213. You may also email Keith at khaygood@fbcedmond.org.
BRT is a campus with multiple cottages where house parents care for up to 8 boys at a time, so they can see what a biblical family looks like, so they can become the men God created them to be. We continuously serve these boys, so a way we can serve them is by providing a meal.
