I’ve had firsthand experience with several nonprofits, but none come close to Lisa Bain Ministries. I connected with Lisa in 2015. She has consistently demonstrated passion, dedication, and devotion to serving those in need and shows no signs of slowing down or diminishing her forward movement in service to others. Lisa Bain, Skipper Bain and all the volunteers deserve high recognition and deep respect for all they bring to our community.

I’ve known Lisa since 2015. In December my husband (Santa) and I had the honor and great joy to “peak behind the curtain” of Lisa Bain Ministries a couple of time. Words fall short to describe the way in which Lisa, Skipper and all the volunteers work tirelessly to love, serve and bless those in need. Lisa’s heart shines like gold in all she does. She has a way of making every person feel like they are the most important person she will meet. And, she does it all consistently, day in, day out, with the gift of organization and administration. Some might say I was exaggerating, but not so. Lisa (and her army of helpers) push back the darkness with the light of Christ and servant’s hearts everyday through many avenues. If I could give Lisa Bain Ministries 10 stars it would still fall short.
I met Lisa about 3 years ago and learned of her amazing non-profit. She helps those in need without batting an eye. But when I needed support after the death of a loved one, Lisa was literally the FIRST person to show up. She continued to check on me and still does to this day, 3 years later! Her heart is bigger than life, her smile contagious, and her prayers are the most healing, heartfelt prayers I have had the honor to hear and receive. Thank you, Lisa!! This world needs more Angels like you!
Lisa Bain Ministries is a great blessing to our community. The founders and volunteers are actively and freely making a difference in so many lives. They reach men, women, and children through multifaceted efforts and multifaceted groups of volunteers. I’m proud to know Lisa and Skipper, and Mabel, Maddie, and Moose!
Lisa and her ministry are such a blessing to this community. I have seen firsthand the hardworking and dedication her and her team have to helping people and making a difference. I have also been privileged to see the smiles she puts on so many people’s faces through her ministry.
I started volunteering with Lisa many years ago.
I’ve been on the receiving end of her blessings. I get to see this awesome group minister to cancer patients and so many in need. Providing care to so many in need.
What a great organization!!
I’ve Been working with Lisa for years, this is a truly grassroots organization where your money & time help the people it is intended for. Lisa is the most selfless person I have ever met. She is always endeavors to help those who need a hand whether they are cancer patients, physically challenged, or victims of abuse, Lisa is there to offer help.
Lisa Bain Ministries has help so many people in the community. From cancer patients to children in need and so many more with life altering challenges. All given with love and kindness.
Resilience boxes filled with items picked just for the person in need. Gas cards and many other gifts to bring joy. Backpacks for the first responders to give to a child that needs extra love during difficult situations they are put in.
I have been blessed to be on the receiving end and the volunteer end. Great nonprofit!

I have worked with Lisa for over 10 years in the non profit. The ministry helps cover many needs that are brought on with life. From resilience boxes to gas cards and visits from therapy dogs this ministry reaches out in so many ways. All done with kindness and compassion.
I have been blessed to know and volunteer with Lisa Bain Ministries for many years since her mom was a cancer patient at the office where I worked where she would come in with party hats on and sit in the treatment room with her. I have been privileged to hear her speak many times and attend events to help in any way she needs it. She and Skipper are the real deal spreading hope, love, and compassion with gifts and her time. I am so blessed by the friendship
When I first met Lisa , she was speaking at a Finding Hope retreat. I was impressed with her desire to help so many people in all walks of life. Cancer patients, children at the Hospital, Veterans ,young women in shelters ect. I have since gotten to know her personally and have seen for myself everything she does is Faith based/ lead by God . She saids what she means and does what she saids. God has given her a heart to serve and love others and she does it well. When you suggest she slow down a bit, she smile's and saids I can't there's too much to do. She puts others above herself. I personally am so blessed to have her in my life
If there is a single word to describe service, joy, love, friendship, and the innate ability to bring community together for a great cause, the word would be “Lisa.” A still small voice and a tug at my heart was all I needed to offer my time and expertise to benefit her ministry’s mission. She brings so much joy to so many people who may be experiencing a difficult time in their lives. Most deserving of 5+ stars!!
As Mr. & Mrs. Claus, we have been acquainted with Lisa Bain Ministries for several years. We love and are blessed so much entertaining the children. She ministers and delivers care packages and therapeutic, healing treatment to many people through her loving support animals. This group will actively come to the aid and address hurting people that most everyone else will look the other way! Lisa and Skip are genuine, caring people that reach out as they offer their assistance to others. They do not wait for under-privileged and sick among us to come asking for help, hope and comfort. They step up and address the needs beforehand! This ministry along with Lisa and Skip are a reflection of what our Lord Jesus would do on this earth. They contact and lead others to share their gifts and talents and then funnel them to channels where each item is best received and served. This couple is a fulfillment of Isaiah 61:1-3. Not only has she nourished this good idea she has, but it definitely is a God-idea, and blessings flow freely from it!!! How beautiful could we be for each other if there were more godly, obedient people, making themselves available, who would be God’s hands and feet to point the way to His Kingdom! Hopefully we can do our part to work side by side making smile and memories for children everywhere we go!
There is so much to tell. Lisa is my hero. She has help us when my husband has a massive stroke. She has prayed with us and really cares about people. We are now volunteering for her now. If anyone is looking to donate to a Nonprofit Lisa Bain Ministries is the perfect one.
I have seen Lisa Bain Ministries in action firsthand. The scope what they do is just incredible. From the incredible amount of handmade goods they manage to get in the hands of those during their toughest hour, to carefully curated care boxes specifically made for the situation of the person receiving them, to providing resources, a hand to hold-the impact this non-profiit has on this community is immeasurable. From the viewpoint of a sponsor like myself, transparency and trust are everything, and this is one organization that I give to knowing my money is going directly to the care of someone in need. I really just can't say enough about them.

There is just something about Lisa Bain and those pups that really lift the spirits. Lisa has such a service of spirit, from her generous gift bags to her inspiring book, her work has brought me comfort, joy, and inspiration. I really just cannot say enough about Lisa Bain Ministries. Such a blessing to so many people's lives!
After going through breast cancer treatment, I was so happy to find this ministry. Lisa and her ministry work so hard to help the community.
She’s welcoming and loves people who are going through a difficult time. I volunteered with her and can’t wait to get more involved! Lisa Bain Ministries is amazing and much needed in the area.
Lisa Bain Ministries is a wonderful non-profit. They support individuals facing illness, a special need, or a crisis situation. I am honored to be a volunteer.
I’m not sure where to begin. I started working together with Lisa Bain Ministries several years ago when she met my son. After he told her I worked for a nonprofit servicing those with chronic illness, namely Parkinson’s disease, Lisa’s connection to PD motivated her to help us. They were wonderful to provide us Resilience Boxes for those who were in need and she was always there when we needed to brighten someone’s day. When my days at the nonprofit ended in May, we finally had the opportunity to directly work with one another and I realized what I was missing out on. This woman and this ministry are amazing! I have had the time of my life helping them and I’m grateful to have had the chance to have meaning in my life during my time off. I’m so grateful to Skipper & Lisa, not only working with their organization, but they are truly everything that embodies friends. And there is no competition. These pictures are of individuals with Parkinson’s who benefitted from the connection of our 2 organizations working together. The other photo is a piece of the time we have spent together over the past 7 months working on an event. It’s been a blast. Love you Skipper & Lisa! Thanks for accepting me in to such a wonderful family!
When you have the pleasure of meeting someone who can "influence the room", it is memorable! Yet the intent is never–look at me, rather what stands out is kindness, compassion, and making anyone in her path feel like they are the most important person in the room! Couple that with a need, and immediately–make a plan, activate it, and impact precious lives. Another sphere is the events created through the ministry that highlight and elevate locally-owned businesses and nonprofits that bring people together in a collaborative way.
How does one person do all this? Lisa relies heavily on her faith and Creator, who gifted her with the perfect mate Skipper! As a volunteer (and I know many of the others) we love working with Lisa and all things Lisa Bain Ministries!

I am so honored to be a part of this wonderful nonprofit. I have know Lisa for 7 or 8 years now. She is the light in this world of darkness. She spreads hope to everyone she meets or visits. From visiting chemo patients to visiting someone in the hospital or at home she and her therapy dogs are a breath of fresh air. She loves on the hurting and even the sometimes forgotten people of our community. I’m forever thankful that our paths crossed. To know her and her mission is to love her. If you are looking for a nonprofit to donate or even volunteer with look no further.
I have found total transparency, legitimacy, and selfless service to hurting people through Lisa Bain Ministries. The "Care with Connection" is sincere and heartfelt! I appreciate being able to call on this ministry when individuals or families truly need help; my requests have always been honored. Thank you, Lisa Bain Ministries; my husband and I will definitely continue our support!
I can not begin to convey in words what this ministry has meant to my heart & so many people I love. Lisa & her beautiful tribe know no limits when it comes to truly being the hands & feet of Jesus. There’s not a need out there they don’t jump to meet, reminding precious souls that they are indeed seen and matter!
We are so thankful there are people out there like Lisa Bain Ministries. This Christmas was a very difficult one for our family due to illness and loss. They made it one of hope and joy. We received a huge care box filled with items for every member of our family. Our kids had a Christmas because of this ministry. They LOVE the toys and stuffed Mabel puppies and never put them down. The money cards helped us with groceries, and prescriptions we would not have been able to get due to cost. The stories of each gift in the box meant so much. You could tell so much love went into everything. We truly had lost hope that there were still good people in the world and the love we were shown by these people gave us faith they really do still exist. We can't wait to meet the real Mabel Joy in person someday! We are so thankful and wanted to let others know what a great ministry this is.
I’ve heard mainly through my wife what Lisa Bain Ministries had helped others in starting their own nonprofit ministry. She helps with such a giving heart. I would highly recommend this ministry to donate to.
Lisa Bain Ministries has touched so many lives who desperately needed that touch because those people were going through a heart wrenching time. Lisa Bain always steps up. Thank you Lisa Bain Ministries.
Thank you doesn’t begin to express the gratitude I feel for this ministry. They care. I write this note in tears. Good ones. Do you even know how long it has been since I have been able to say that? I have felt so alone on my cancer journey. I sometimes feel like I am just a number on a chart, then I received a care box. I love the name on the box! “Resilience Care Box!” For the first time since my diagnosis I didn’t feel alone. To see the notes left by people who cared enough to have a part in my care box brought me to tears. During my chemo I am wrapped up in the prayer quilt, knowing I was prayed for and I am holding on tight to the stuffed Mabel dog. Gosh I love her! I am wearing my necklace from the box and don’t think I will ever take it off. I didn’t have snacks for all day chemo, but your bag of snacks got me through the day. And I even wore my socks that told me I could do all things through Christ every time I looked at them! Money cards helped me with my prescriptions and groceries, and so many other items in this huge box helped me through my journey. The entire box has so much meaning, but most of all love. It’s like I opened up a box of many people showing love and care. Thank you for praying for me. Thank you for reminding me I am not just a number on a chart, but there really are people out there who care about me and I am not alone. This ministry is the real deal. They really care. They have been a God-send.
My English Bulldog, my baby boy was diagnosed with inoperable cancer in February 2023. There was nothing I could do but count every day he gave his love to us as a blessing. On April 12, 2023 we had to say goodbye to my sweet boy of 10 years old. Just two days earlier I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Although treatable it’s a woman’s nightmare to hear those words. Well God sends you gifts in the way of people and kind words and gifts. I received a huge package in the mail from a stranger who I now consider an angel. The box contained every item anyone going through cancer and chemo could ever want or need. That Angel was Lisa Bane of Lisa Bane Ministries. The love and care that went into making and filling all the beautiful items from the beautiful hand made blanket to the stuffed animal filled my heart with love for this person that I’d never even met. But if God grants any wishes my wish is to hug this woman and her warriors that make up Lisa Bane Ministries. Tammy Palmer. Future cancer survivor!!
I’ve had the pleasure of getting to love Lisa and Skipper since the very very early days of their nonprofit journey. I have been honored to have our professional relationship turn personal. They’ve stood by my side during so many different chapters in my life. I couldn’t think of better people in this world. Lisa inspires me daily. The Lisa and Skipper you see publicly is the same Lisa and Skipper off camera and out of the light, just genuine good people.
In 2016 when I was diagnosed with breast cancer I met Lisa Bain. Since that time we have became personal friends and she has been a great prayer warrior. There was something different about Lisa when I met her. She has the most giving spirit and kindness about her that surpasses anyone I know. What she does for this community is over the top. I have seen her give and give and give when she has nothing else to give really.
Lisa, I love you so much and am glad to call you my friend.
I decided to volunteer as soon as I could because I wanted to be a part of something that touched people like Lisa did.
I have numerous stories about the goodness of Lisa Bain Ministries. Lisa and Mabel Joy have come out to visit our residents at Flourish Homes. We are a supportive living home for young women aging out of foster care or facing homelessness. Our young ladies are DELIGHTED by Lisa's visits and they are so comforted and joyful playing with the dogs. Lisa Bain Ministries has provided our young ladies with wonderful duffle bags full of nice presents and there are stuffed Mabel Joy dolls throughout their rooms. We have been able to volunteer with Lisa, learning to be servants and givers by preparing bags to give away. I am so thankful for Lisa's prayerfulness and support to us as a new organization. She helped us get our first video produced and seems to always be looking for ways to bless us! Lisa Bain Ministries is a great light in the community, making people feel loved and seen!
I have known Lisa for a few years now and she is absolutely incredible. It doesn't matter if you have known her years, months or minutes she brings light to your life. What she and everyone involved with her ministries does, is authentically beautiful. The outpouring of love and support you gain from them is abundant and wonderful!! You'll find out when you meet her that she is, without a doubt, an angel here on earth!!
Lisa Bain Ministries is a wonderful organization in the Tulsa OK area providing care, comfort, resources and joy to people of all different needs. The ministry has blessed deaf and hard of hearing children at Happy Hands Education Center for a few years now with an awesome Christmas celebration. They bring mascots, their therapy dog, Signing Santa and Mrs. Claus, volunteers, gifts and just a whole lot of joy to these special needs children and the staff. More impactful is that the organization and their volunteers commit to praying for our children and their families and our staff. They share our mission with others in the community and promote joy and kindness in all that they do and with everyone they encounter. We are grateful for the folks at Lisa Bain Ministries.

Lisa Bain Miniseries is an awesome organization! Lisa and Skipper are what I would call Earth Angels! They provide care packages for individuals going through cancer or difficult times. Each package is prayed over. They will visit you, cry with you, laugh with you or just hold your hand! They are amazing and I’m honored to be a volunteer/friend with Lisa and Skipper. Oh and those precious therapy dogs, Maddie and Mabel. Everyone loves dog kisses.
If you are looking to find an organization to donate to, please consider donating to my sweet friend Lisa, with Lisa Bain Ministries.
Lisa helps so many people of all ages and gives so much of herself back to others and our community each and everyday!!
Her volunteer group that works with her is amazing and of course her two amazing therapy dogs Mabel and Maddie are always ready to provide a hug for those who want one
I’ve worked with Lisa Bain Ministries for the past two years to help bring comfort, joy, and support to individuals in need.
I’ve seen the impact of the mission firsthand through resilience bags/boxes given to gold star families and veterans in need. The care and compassion shown to these individuals during their lowest point is truly a lifeline.
Lisa Bain Ministries is making a positive impact in the world!
Lisa Bain Ministries is excelling and their fearless and faithful leader is key. They serve so many across their community and are always ready to respond when someone is in need. One aspect of LBM is that they deliver care packages to Gold Star families. I've witnessed this and can vouch for the care and hard work they put it. Bravo Lisa Bain Ministries, you're a gem and doing amazing work!
I volunteered with Lisa many moons ago training service dogs. She has always had a heart of gold and I love watching the work she is doing all over the community with her therapy dogs, kids backpack donations, prayer warrriors, her care box donations that go to those in need, hospitals, cancer centers, local police and fire depts, you name it she's going to be involved in helping in whatever way her and her awesome organization can. She's the best of the best!
Many have said that there are Angels who walk among us - well I can say that Lisa Bain is an Angel among us. Through her nonprofit she touches so many in anyway that can brighten the day. From the simple phone call to say hello or home visit or many hospital visits - Lisa Bain is Lisa Bain Ministries. Her light shines even in the darkest of moments or through the shedding of tears. I have known Lisa for almost 15 years and she always amazes me with her strength, endurance and faith. Even when she is not at her top she makes sure that those around her are the stars. Lisa Bain Ministries helps so many in our community - many who would be forgotten - but not anymore. I could go on and on - but there is no need. Anyone that has come in contact with Lisa and Lisa Bain Ministries knows - she is doing God's will and he is right by her side. She glows - and she spreads that light daily. I am humbled to be called her friend and to aid her in her non profit in any way I can.
I have had the opportunity to work alongside of Lisa and Lisa Bain Ministries in a few different capacities. She and this organization came into my life at just the right time. Lisa and her organization exude peace and you will not find another who is more rooting in prayer and the love of God. While their mission of coming alongside the broken hearted is simple, it has made an enormous impact in the lives of those who have had the chance to experience it.
Lisa Bain Ministries is an abundant blessing. They helped my Mom when she had cancer by giving her gift bags with items that she could use during treatment and they prayed fiercely over her all throughout treatment. After my Mom passed, they then helped me through one of the hardest times in my life.
At one time, I also worked for a non profit that helped children with special needs and their therapy dogs made the children (and staff!) So happy.
I couldn't recommend another rnon profit more than I do this one.
The work Lisa is doing truly helps so many. I have the great pleasure of caring for the fur kids to keep them happy and healthy. Lisa Bain Ministries reaches so many with vast needs, while making everyone involved feel so special. It has been a pleasure to be involved with Lisa Bain Ministries and see the changes she provides for people.
I truly love Lisa Bain and her entire family and I know whatever mission she is on is lead by God and I can't wait to see the wonderful outcome. I love to make as many events as I can and just see firsthand the absolute wonderful things the Lord has in store for all of us. Lisa is the real thing and is greatly loved by many. I love this ministry she has began and can't wait to be a bigger part of it. I will follow Lisa Bain to whatever the Lord might lead her to. I truly believe in her and i believe her. This is a loving ministry with a big heart.
Lisa Bain is the real deal. She loves people with her whole heart and is using her wisdom and lived experience to show up for people who need hope in the hardest of circumstances. She is efficient, reliable, honest, genuine, and JOYFUL! Her nonprofit is built on integrity and a heart of service. I have no doubt that her impact as Lisa Bain ministries will be tremendously successful in bringing life and hope to families in our community and Tulsa is lucky to have her!
I have worked with Lisa Bain for the last 3 years on her service projects and she is an incredible light that puts love, joy, and service at the forefront of her mission. She has taken the most difficult moments of her life and turned them into opportunities to serve others. When she is blessed by others with funds to gift forward, she makes sure those funds are used to their maximum and bless people.
Lisa Bain and her husband Skipper have a heart to serve, support and encourage those who are hurting, going through medical treatment, going through difficult life situations, etc., by providing care boxes, visiting, praying and providing resources to get them through difficult times. She also shines a light on other ministries. She says her ministry is there to complete, not compete with other ministries. Visit her website and view her Treasure Talks to learn more.
I have known Lisa for 7 years now. What you see is what you get. She is such a beautiful light in this dark world. She has such an amazing heart for the community and people that are hurting. She is just an amazing humanitarian. She loves God and it shows in the compassion she has for others.
I have know Lisa for over approximately 10 years and during this time have need the true love of her and Skippers hearts… just recently I have had the opportunity to serve as a volunteer with Tulsa women Expo that brought the hearts of many together as Lisa released her book Brokeness th story of Broken in her life that could have stopped many but how we can learn and follow how Lisa turned these moments to light and love.. as I volunteer it helps me as much or more than the ones I volunteer for… thank you for being the Real Thing Lisa the hands heart and feet to many… LMB fills voids of empty my heart needs filled…
Lisa and I met through a mutual friend and as they say, the rest is history. I also have a nonprofit and we serve the same community: those navigating through cancer. Lisa has provided care packages for our cancer clients. I am not talking about a "simple" care package, I am talking about gift cards to fill up their cars to get to/from treatment, meals, informational resources, blankets, mugs, so many things that are practical that help those in cancer treatment. To see the impact of what Lisa does for people is truly amazing! Her giving spirit, outpouring of love, and prayers help so many! Her heavenly crown will be overloaded with gems! I am so thankful to know Lisa and her team and be a small part of her mission. Edie Tolbert, The Stonebrook Project, Inc.
I have know Lisa for many years. She has a passion for serving others. I have personally experienced her kindness and generosity through watching her serve and care for people in the community. I reached out and ask her to to speak to our Church women’s group and she with out hesitation agreed. She came and blessed the women with information about herself and a strong message. Lisa is a kind and generous woman and will partner along side anyone to assist or help in anyway. I absolutely love Lisa and the Mission she and her mother built through facing a difficult time in their lives.
I am very eager to share my admiration for Lisa Bain and her ministry and all that she does for others. I met Lisa when my husband was in hospice care and her love and caring brought smiles to my husband and so much comfort to our family during such a difficult time. It has been almost seven years since my husband passed away and I have been blessed to watch Lisa as she gives so unselfishly to so many in our community. Lisa Bain Ministries is meeting many varied needs and bringing hope to so many hurting people It is hard to put into words but when Lisa walks into a room she brings light and hope. She has the ability to organize and get things done with her enthusiasm and her obvious faith in God. This is an amazing ministry and I will always be grateful that our lives were touched by Lisa.
I've known Lisa Bain for over 10 years and her ministry to care for others is genuine!! She intentionally meets people in their brokenness and shows them love & kindness. Her resilience boxes are packed full of all kinds of things to help the recipient.
Her therapy dog, Mabel Joy is just the sweetest dog ever! These pictures are of us delivering quilts, stuffed Mabel dogs and snacks to patients at a local cancer center, where Lisa's ministry began years ago with her mom. I love getting to volunteer with this awesome non profit!!
Lisa and her crew of magic makers are always ready to help, whether that be sending a box packed full of carefully selected comfort items (resiliency box) or just being there to listen. There’s more hope and love in our community because of LBM!
Lisa Bain Ministries has changed my daughter's life, and subsequently mine, by restoring her hope during a time of incredibly difficult health challenges. Lisa & Mabel Joy presented my daughter with a care package, and literally every single thing from chapstick to a homemade quilt gave her a renewed sense of peace and happiness that someone noticed her pain, met her where she was at with unconditional love and a listening ear, and offered encouragement and prayer. The box was absolutely incredible - the heart & purpose behind it, even more incredible - and now we want to give back to others so they feel the same renewed strength we've received from the kindness of Lisa Bain Ministries!
This is an amazing ministry. Lisa Bain has a heart that reaches so many hurt people, either physically and or mentally. I would recommend this Ministry to anyone.
Lisa has a genuinely big heart for encouraging people to rise above their difficult circumstances. Through Lisa Bain Ministries, she puts that heart into action in real and tangible ways, and inspires others to reach out and help others.
I reach out to Lisa Bain Ministries about possibly purchasing a Mabel Joy dog to give to a young man (2 years old) currently at St. Jude going through Cancer treatment. Not only did I receive a Mabel Joy she presented me with the complete care package. It will be waiting on him when he is released from the hospital to go back to the supplied apartment by St. Jude. Just one awesome organization than can provide Joy to people going through difficult times.
I have known Lisa for over 8 years. She is an inspirational and Godly woman, a living legacy of her mother. She continues the mission that she and her mother began through her ministry, Lisa Bain Ministries. Over the past 8 years, I have witnessed first-hand the countless number of people she has blessed through prayers, therapy visits, and care packages, as well as the many lives she has blessed through volunteer opportunities. Lisa Bain Ministries is a light to those in need of joy, comfort, and connection.
