Local & Global Outreach at BattleCreek Church

We help you meet the tangible needs of the most vulnerable individuals in our city and our world and introduce them to the ultimate Care-Giver, Jesus.

Local Outreach

In Tulsa today, there are…
1,024

children out of their home, either in foster care or waiting for a foster placement

510

open foster homes

70

children waiting to be adopted

This translates into a heartbreaking reality of broken homes, urgent tangible needs left unmet, and a pressing demand for more available foster homes to provide stability and love for these vulnerable children.

To tackle these issues, we partner with local organizations and individuals through the CarePortal program.

Meet a Need

How our CarePortal System works to meet Local Needs:

Step 1

We Receive Needs

We receive tangible needs from various sources, including DHS, local schools, and ministry partner organizations.

Step 2

You Get an Email

We send a mass email with the input needs directly to the inboxes of those who have signed up to receive the needs.

Step 3

You Meet Needs

You can then choose to meet these needs either by yourself or with your community group.

Choose Your Neighborhood and Sign Up to Be a Responder

We have organized CarePortal requests by proximity to each campus. Once you select your campus, you’ll sign up with the best email for you to be contacted. Then, you will receive requests in your inbox a few times a week for needs in your neighborhood! You can also search for needs by logging back in with your email address and scrolling down. Remember, we’re doing this together as a church, so there’s no pressure for you or your community group to try to meet every need.

"CarePortal is one of the best ways church can meet specific needs in the community. We have had several opportunities to meet with folks in person and express to them how much they are loved. We’ve been able to invite folks to church with us and point them to life-changing ministries. People won’t know what BattleCreek has to offer unless we tell them, bring them and walk with them. Please consider meeting a need in the days to come. You’ll be amazed at how God’s blessings flow!"
