  • Micah community movement

    Micah is a non-profit operating out of OKC First that ministers to those experiencing homelessness in our city. 

     ๐Ÿ“ŒMicah has outreach teams that go out on Sunday afternoons to distribute care bags and extend friendship and dignity to our neighbors experiencing homelessness. We also provide food and personal care items specifically geared toward our unhoused neighbors who come into the church looking for assistance, as well as to the Hope Box.


    You can join the Micah Movement! To participate in our outreach team: contact Alissa Gilmore. Donate funds on the church's giving site and select Micah. And contribute most needed items: Micah_SS_collection_flyer.pdf. 


    Store this number in your phone: 405-498-2009. If you encounter a person experiencing homelessness in the area near the church, give them the number to call/text our Micah team. It is NOT an emergency number; they need to leave a message and we will get back to them.

For questions or to volunteer contact Jayden: Jayden@okcfirst.com.
