OKM - About Us

Operation Kindness Ministry from McLean Bible Church on Vimeo.



Operation Kindness, which is part of our broader Military Ministry at MBC, supports our deployed service members in Afghanistan through monthly care packages and direct interaction with the WIA in local military hospitals and their visiting families. The ministry has been active for 9 years and has sent more than 90,000 lbs (45 tons!) of items in their monthly care packages to contact chaplains and deployed family members of MBC.  Each box contains a bible, tracts, personal letters, and an invitation to our internet campus in addition to the snacks, toiletries, coffee, etc.   

Thank you for remembering to support our service members!

About Us
The Operation Kindness Ministry (OKM) provides God's Word as well as physical comfort items to service members deployed to Afghanistan via care packages shipped to contact chaplains.  

OKM also provides support to wounded in action service members (and their families) who are at the area military hospitals.  

Volunteers can contribute their time to these and other related ministries: 

    > Frontline... We are working with Frontiline leadership to determine how to best move our joint interests forward. If you are a Frontliner and have a desire to participate in the event planning or execution, please look for the announcements in the normal Frontline communication channels or contact Bob Jepsen to get involved.

    > Website. Diana Villarreal (diana@creativeconcepts.com) leads our communication efforts (MBC-OKM website, bulletin, etc). If you have interest in helping Diana to be part of the team that keeps up with the many activities in this area, please let Diana know.

    > Other Campuses...We continue to welcome a large number of volunteers from all of our campuses to the packing at the Tyson's Campus and WIA events.  The campus liaison at Loudoun is Tina Hamilton (tina-hamilton@hotmail.com). The campus liason at Prince William is Kathryn Scott (jfkascott@verizon.net).
