Bittersweet and beautiful all at once 💛✨

Today in Norman, we broke ground on new facilities that have been 30 years in the making — a moment filled with gratitude, hope, and so much anticipation for what’s ahead. To everyone who played a part in making this dream a reality, thank you. Your dedication is shaping the future in ways that will be felt for generations 🙌

This is only Phase One, and we know God has even greater things planned. The best is truly yet to come!

Today we celebrated a special milestone as Jennifer was enrolled as a Senior Soldier in The Salvation Army Norman Corps!

As we’ve been studying Nehemiah, we’re reminded that God’s work has always been accomplished through ordinary people who trust an extraordinary God. In Nehemiah 4, the people faced opposition, discouragement, and weakness, yet they continued building the wall because God was with them. They worked with a tool in one hand and a sword in the other—builders and warriors for the Kingdom.

Today, Jennifer joins that same mission. As a Senior Soldier, she stands as both a wall builder and a warrior for God’s Kingdom, committed to serving Christ, sharing His love, and helping strengthen His Church.

Nehemiah reminded the people, “Do not be afraid of them. Remember the Lord, who is great and awesome…” (Nehemiah 4:14). What a fitting reminder for all of us. In our weakness, we have an awesome God who equips us for every task He calls us to.

Congratulations, Jennifer! We thank God for your faithfulness and are honored to serve alongside you in His Kingdom work.

🍩 National Donut Day is about more than just a sweet treat.

It's history is rooted in service, compassion, and community. Since 1938, National Donut Day has been to honor the brave "Donut Lassies" who served fresh donuts, encouragement, and a taste of home as The Salvation Army served the American soldiers on the front lines during World War I.

As we celebrate today, we're reminded that even the simplest acts of kindness can make a lasting difference. A donut may seem small, but a smile, a conversation, and a caring heart can brighten someone's entire day.

We are grateful for the opportunity to continue that legacy of service right here in our community.

🚧 At The Salvation Army here in Norman, it's beginning to look more and more like a construction and demolition site! 🚧

Exciting things are happening at The Salvation Army of Cleveland and McClain Counties as we continue taking steps toward expanding our ability to serve our community.

A place where more individuals and families will find hope, food, shelter, support, and a fresh start.

We're grateful for every donor, volunteer, partner, and supporter who has helped make this vision possible. The progress is real, and we can't wait to share more updates as this project continues to take shape in the coming weeks!

Stay tuned—there's much more to come! ❤️🛠️

National Donut Day is about more than a sweet treat.

It’s a day rooted in joy, service, tradition, and community—values that have been at the heart of The Salvation Army’s National Donut Day celebration since it was established in 1938 to honor the Donut Lassies who served soldiers during World War I.

As we prepare to celebrate this Friday, we’re reflecting on how simple acts of kindness can make a lasting impact. Whether it’s sharing a donut, offering a smile, serving a meal, or gathering together for fellowship, every act of compassion matters.

Here at The Salvation Army, we carry on that spirit each week through our Tuesday morning "Devo & Donuts" at our Emergency Shelter in Norman. "Devo & Donuts" are brought by Lt. Mandy, this is a time of devotion, encouragement, coffee, donuts, community, and the Gospel of Jesus! It’s a reminder that meaningful connections often begin with something as simple as sharing a table together.
