Since 1903, Oklahoma Baptist Homes for Children has provided a place for kids in need of a home, and to help families requiring assistance to find hope in a time of need.
Boys Ranch Town began in 1953 when Mr. And Mrs. James M. Johnson donated money and land after they lost their only son, Jimmy. Since then, more than 1,000 residents have called BRT home. The ranch campus is located just one mile from Henderson Hills in Edmond, Oklahoma, off 33rd street, and several church members have found opportunities to serve there. Some of our members even call it home.
There are numerous ways for you, your family, or your Community Group to engage and serve at Boys Ranch Town. Opportunities include providing occasional meals, discipleship with young men, cottage and annual special event support. Events include a Rodeo in September, a Christmas Pageant in December, and a Style Show in July. To learn more about the Boys Ranch Town visit their website here.
