First Baptist Church Kingfisher 1340 S. 13th Street, Kingfisher, United States

REGISTER FOR Kingfisher COUNTY GATHERING Dear Church Leaders, OKDHS and County Agency workers, We are delighted to announce that our next Community Gathering for Kingfisher County has been scheduled. The First Baptist Church of Kingfisher, OK, has graciously volunteered to host our upcoming gathering on Tuesday, March 12th. These Community Gatherings are essential in fostering collaboration and support among the faith community and local agencies. The heart of 111Project is mobilizing the local church to respond to these needs. By making local churches aware of the needs within our community, we create an avenue for ministering and supporting families in crisis. Kingfisher County has six churches enrolled in CarePortal. These churches are meeting requests placed by OKDHS and agency workers. These answered requests have served children in your community for an economic impact of more than $27,847  by the churches and community responders in Kingfisher County.
