As 2013 approaches completion, this blog post recaps what the BCC student ministry has been up to, while also looking ahead to what’s coming up in 2014. Thanks for your continued support of the BCC student ministry.
The BCC Student Ministry exists to challenge and equip students to BE LOVED by Jesus Christ, to GO DEEPER in a maturing relationship with Jesus Christ and to LIVE IT OUT in their day-to-day lives.
Be Loved: “We will share the Gospel message of Jesus Christ.” Go Deeper: “We will provide our students the tools (HABITS) to mature in Jesus Christ.” Live It Out: “We will provide opportunities that challenge our students.”
