BAPTIST COLLEGIATE MINISTRIES
BCM reaches students on 39 campuses across Oklahoma with the hope of the gospel. Staff build relationships in cafeterias, dorms, and classrooms. Many students come to know Christ, including international students who return home as gospel witnesses. Through discipleship and leadership development, students discover a call to ministry or missions. The State Missions Offering helps fund mission trips and equips these young leaders to impact the church and reach the world for Christ.
FOSTER CARE
The child welfare crisis in Oklahoma creates real and urgent needs. Through ministries like 111Project, churches respond to caseworker requests, providing beds, groceries, and clothing to families in crisis. These acts of service open doors for gospel conversations and lasting relationships. Even those who cannot foster can make a difference by supporting families in their community. The State Missions Offering helps churches meet practical needs and share Christ’s love with vulnerable children and families across Oklahoma.
MULTI-VOCATIONAL PASTORS
Multi-vocational pastors serve both their churches and communities, often working full-time jobs while faithfully leading small or rural congregations. They are a vital part of gospel ministry across Oklahoma. The State Missions Offering encourages and equips these pastors through training, connection, and practical support. By investing in MVPs, we strengthen local churches, expand outreach efforts, and ensure pastors have the tools they need to lead well in every area God has called them to serve.

About the Edna McMillan State Missions Offering
The State Missions Offering is named for one of its earliest advocates and mission pioneers, Edna McMillan. After graduating with honors from the Huntsville Female College in Alabama in 1890, Edna married a young Baptist man, George McMillan. She respected his quest for Godly character and was inspired when she first met him during a church service where he pledged a generous amount to a special missions offering.
Both of the McMillans became faithful stewards of their time and their resources. George served in church and worked in the oil business. They settled in Muskogee in 1902 and later spent most of their lives in Bristow. Edna held numerous roles in the church and worked diligently and tirelessly for Oklahoma Woman’s Missionary Union. She held many positions in WMU and served as state WMU president for 11 years from 1927 to 1938.
Edna was an effective communicator and consistently challenged Oklahoma Baptists to give generously to state missions. In 1932, she said, “A rich man is one who has enough for himself and enough left over to help others. Though he be possessed of millions, a man is poor, who has only enough for himself.”
The state WMU Board in 1939 met in Muskogee where Edna was surprised to hear the recommendation and later unanimous vote to name the State Mission Offering in her honor. Through her many travels and days away from home to champion mission cause, Edna never accepted a penny for her expenses.
“Children have great opportunities in their own neighborhoods and schools to love others and share the Good News of Jesus. The Missions Education Activity Sheets provide engaging activities to open young eyes to missions in their own backyards!” – Edna McMillan
