Amy Cordova, Oklahoma Baptist Convention Missions Director joins Brad this week to talk about the Edna McMillan State Missions Offering in Oklahoma. They chat about who Edna McMillan is, why is the state missions of Oklahoma named after her, and how the state is using the funds that they receive through this 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.
