INTRO
The Compassion Offering is our annual giving campaign designed to unleash compassion all over the world. Since we launched the Compassion Offering in 2017, you have given more than $7 million to make a huge difference in the lives of people in our city and around the world.
This year, our goal is to create a bright future for under-resourced kids and families and to build a permanent, life-giving church in Broken Arrow!
GIVEPLAY
We have a list of 5 projects we consider "Must-Dos" for our 2021 Compassion Offering! Take a minute to read through them below. When you're ready, we invite you to give a financial gift toward the Compassion Offering.
INITIATIVE 01
BROKEN ARROW
$2M
Over the past year, you’ve faithfully partnered with us in praying for a home for our church in BA, and God has provided! Located at 71st and Lynn Lane—in the heart of our beloved Broken Arrow community—this new home will allow us to do ministry in our own space seven days a week. We want to begin construction and renovation in 2020 and move our COTM Broken Arrow services to this location in Spring 2021. We’re excited to welcome new families to our church and build our kids and student ministries in Broken Arrow even more!
GIVEINITIATIVE 02
GBB
$100K
We want to fully fund a Christmas experience for the families of inmates at both Dick Conner Correctional Center and Dr. Eddie Warrior Correctional Center in Oklahoma. Incarcerated parents and their children will experience Christ’s heart for reconciliation as they share Christmas together as a family. For some inmates, this will be their first-ever Christmas with their children and for others, the first in a long time.
GIVEINITIATIVE 03
DREAM CENTER
$160K
We want to fund the Splash Pad portion of the Tulsa Dream Center pool project. This project will provide a safe place for water safety programs, exercise, and educational advancement through a swim instructor. Not only will kids and families learn to swim and have fun in a new recreational space, they will also be surrounded by Godly men and women committed to sharing the love of Christ with them. We can’t wait to be a part of this vision!
GIVEINITIATIVE 04
READING PARTNERS
$240K
Budget restraints are a stark reality for the public school systems in our state, so we want to fund the start-up costs of opening a Reading Partners Center in another local school district. By offsetting start-up costs, we can see Reading Partners expand their reach and help more students in our area than ever before.
GIVEINITIATIVE 05
CARE
$250K
We plan ahead to ensure generosity is a natural expression of who we are as Christ-followers. Through our 2021 Compassion Offering, we want to set aside money for our four local churches to care specifically for the communities we’re in. We steward these funds carefully so we can be ready to deploy money as needs arise or opportunities present themselves to better care for the people around us.
GIVEWe invite you to give a financial gift, over and above your regular tithe, and consider setting up recurring giving toward the
Compassion Offering.
