We will be going on a short mission trip to the Omaha Tribe in Macy, Nebraska, March 16-22. The group is limited to about 8 people. The cost should be about $100 per person.
We will be engaged in aiding Pastor Ron and his wife, Alfie, in the ministries of their church by visiting, doing some repair in the church building and in the homes of tribal elders, crafts, Bible studies, and helping with a block party.
If you are interested in going, please see Bro Rick, asap.
ISBC Youth will have a rummage sale to raise money to go to Falls Creek Camp. The sale will begin at 7 am on May 5 and go until sold out. No early birds!
The sale will be by donation with hardly anything with price tags. Give what you think it’s worth.
If you’d like to donate items for the sale, please have them here by May 4 afternoon. If you have any questions, please email the pastor at pastor@immanuelsouthern.com.
After serving the citizens of Wagoner for more than 9 years, the Food Pantry Ministry has ceased operations, effective today.
Dee Berryhill, the first Food Pantry Ministry Director, builds shelves in our first store-room in 2009.
The Pantry has a long list of faithful volunteers who have worked selfishly to distribute food to the poor. We have seen many, over the years, come to saving faith in Jesus Christ because they were told the Good News while getting food for their family.
It didn’t take long to grow out of space again.
And, of course, we have had our trials, difficulties and challenges. But God has always been faithful.
Volunteers Mary Matthews, Nancy English, and Wanda Nickel up to something in 2009.The Youth had a canned food drive to support the Food Pantry Ministry in 2010. (L-R) Travis Brown, Matthew Boyd, Audrey (Boyne) Ellis, Tony Boyd, ?, Jacob Mathews, Lori Boyd, ? & Emily Boyne (in pink).
We have been told of many wonderful stories from those whom we have helped over the years.
A busy Food Pantry day early on in 2012.
We have seen God heal many that we prayed for along with many other answered prayers, such as, homes, cars, and jobs.
Everyone who had ever volunteered at the Five Year Celebration.
One of the very last people we served today trusted Jesus for salvation!
Charlie and Linda Cameron.
The volunteers have enjoyed the fellowship of serving alongside others and have enjoyed serving the Lord by serving the people of Wagoner.
Nancy English, Wanda Nickel, Linda & Charlie Cameron in 2011.
The folks whom we served have always been very appreciative of the food that was given.
The volunteers in 2013: Charlie Cameron, Zona Tillman, Barbara Smoot, Linda Cameron, Amanda Montgomery, Richard Krailacek, Audrey Ellis, Sheila McElmurry, Wyatt McElmurry, Nancy English, & Katie Dunn
At the very least, every person who came for food, left with the offer of prayer and an invite to attend church with us. Only a few times in the past 9 years, has anyone refused to be prayed with/for.
On the anniversary of the 9th Year of Service: (at the table) Benny Berend, Linda Cameron, Judi Joy. (Standing L-R) Rufina & Michael Fountain, Zona Tillman, Janet Colbert, Martha Whipple, Sherry, Rohana Weiesnbach, Sandy Laviness, Rick Boyne, Carol Weiesnbach, Jennifer Briggs, Jack Whipple, Tonya, Susie.
A great big “THANK YOU!” to all those who have served over the past 9 years! May God bless you for your faithful service!
The Food Pantry Ministry of ISBC celebrates 9 years of service to the community!
In those 9 years, nearly a million meals have been provided to needy families. It is staffed entirely by volunteers, many who serve 3 or more times each week!
The Food Pantry Ministry is open on Tuesdays from 9 am to noon (or until we run out of food). This service is open to residents who reside in the 74467 ZIP Code.
