First Baptist Church Of Jenks

What First Baptist Church Of Jenks does

First Baptist Church of Jenks (FBC Jenks) is a Southern Baptist congregation headquartered at 11701 S. Elm St., Jenks, Oklahoma, operating as a 501(c)-equivalent nonprofit religious organization with approximately 18 staff and an active congregation of roughly 1,200 members across three Sunday services (8:00 AM Classic, 9:45 AM and 11:00 AM Modern). The church offers a multi-generational ministry portfolio spanning Preschool, Kids (birth-6th grade, including The Exchange preteen program), Students (7th-12th grade), Adults (with Small Groups and D-Groups discipleship pathways), and Primetime Adults 55+, supplemented by a Starting Point membership onboarding class, Wednesday midweek programming with a pay-as-you-go community dinner, and ESL classes. Its Missions Program operates at local (7+ partner organizations in the Jenks/Tulsa area), domestic (multi-city trip rotation), and international levels, supporting three full-time missionaries in Kenya and a footprint of 31 churches planted, four schools (approximately 400 children), and the Family Preservation Ministry including the Crown of Beauty and Blessings Bakery.

The church runs on a non-commercial revenue model anchored by recurring tithes and offerings from members and attendees, supplemented by designated giving toward mission projects, midweek dinner unit sales, and Community Preschool fees. Technology infrastructure is utilitarian: an InFellowship-managed fellowship/community platform, an online giving system, YouTube live streaming of all Sunday services plus on-demand message archive, keyword-driven SMS campaigns, and standard email communications. Distribution is delivered through in-person campus worship (Sunday and Wednesday), small group meetings throughout the week, online streaming for remote participants, and direct service engagement via 7+ community partnerships and a Community Preschool.

Go-to-market is community-led: the church attracts and retains members through local visibility, member referrals, faith-story content (Stories of Faith testimonials), and digital touchpoints (website, YouTube, Facebook, email, SMS). The congregation is governed by pastoral leadership (currently Lead Pastor Cody Brumley, succeeding Rick Frie at end of 2023) supported by a board of deacons, autonomously from any parent organization although affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention. There is no external ownership, no funding rounds, and no investor base; financial flows are inbound from members and outbound to operations, staff, missions, and facility costs.
