The Big Buddy Program

of Outreach Community Center (OCM) in Carol Stream

Wheaton Bible Church has worked closely with OCM since its beginning in the 1980’s. OCM has many wonderful ministry opportunities.

One of the key partnerships Wheaton Bible Church has is with the Big Buddies program. The Big Buddy program matches adults with children at risk, living in the apartment complex on Gunderson Road in South Carol Stream.

A big buddy meets with their little buddy each week for a year. What kinds of things would you do? You could do just about anything. Have the kids come over to your house to make cookies, take them to the park, help them with homework, go to the library, or anything else. Outreach also does monthly activities where all the big buddies and little buddies get together to hang out.

If you are interested in reaching children and their families with the good news, please contact Dori McFarland.
