Can you help our friends at John 3:16?

Sometimes the things that help the most are the simplest. As we prepare to celebrate 3:16 Day, we're collecting a few essentials for our Downtown Shelter.

Scrubs, towels, sheets, and deodorant.

These items help us take better care of the men who walk through our door every day. If you would like to help out, bring a donation by our Warehouse and Distribution Center at the Refuge (575 N. 39th W. Ave.) and be part of the food happening here in our community. Use our Shelter Amazon link to give online now: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/WBWOKFZH33ZB?ref_=abls_nvfly_swo

There is a chance for severe weather overnight in Tulsa County. It’s a good idea to take a few minutes this evening to make sure you’re prepared just in case.

• Keep an eye on weather updates tonight
• Make sure you know where your safe place is
• Charge your cell phone and keep emergency supplies nearby
• Have multiple ways to receive weather alerts
• Turn up notification volume so alerts can wake you if needed

A little preparation now can help you stay informed and ready if weather conditions change.

Today is . If you're caring for someone with a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), please know:

⏱️ Recovery takes time. Most progress happens in the first 3–6 months after a TBI, but healing can continue for years.
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 TBIs affect the whole family. Role reversal is real, with adult children suddenly caring for parents who were once the head of the household.
🧠 Symptoms are complex. Physical: headaches, fatigue, dizziness, vision changes, sleep issues, coordination problems. Cognitive: memory loss, changes in attention span, and communication challenges.
💪 Caregiver health matters. Caregivers of people with a TBI experience higher rates of stress, anxiety, anger, and depression - increasing the risk for high blood pressure.
👀 Watch for changes. Some brain damage is immediate, while other damage develops gradually over hours, days, or weeks. Report changes to the care team ASAP.

You're their best advocate.
