Thank
you BCM.
There’s
no way that I could thank BCM properly in a blog post or a video for everything
that it has meant in my life, but I’ll give it my best shot. After reading all the wonderful testimonies
already posted, I have decided to share simply all the great things I gained
from being a part of BSU/BCM. It would
be quite concerning if these opportunities were ever not afforded to our
college students.
Simply
by being a part of BCM…
It gave me tremendous mentors. Jane Poster, Greg Nix, and Chad Stillwell to
name a few.
It gave me lifelong friends. Eight years after graduation, I’m still as
close to many of my BCM brothers and sisters as I was back then.
It gave me accountability. I shudder to think what kind of roads I would
have gone down had I not had the support of friends who cared about my
Christian walk.
It gave me encouragement. It is incredibly moving when your peers do
great things in name of Christ. There
were countless examples of my friends going out and making the world a better
place because of their opportunities through BCM.
It gave me mission opportunities. All I had to do is sign up my time, and
through BCM I served in trailer parks, soup kitchens, homeless shelters, thrift
stores, Bible Camps, three week long service trips, and one eight week
missionary trip in Kershaw.
It gave me the tools and confidence to take what I
learned and spread the message of Jesus Christ throughout the world in
everything I do. I’ve incorporated the
lessons I learned into the churches I have been a part of as well as into my
everyday life.
It gave me hope that in an
increasing secular world, there is a program that is equipping young men and
women to be the future of our church.
BCM
has given me so much. I could never give
the organization enough praise.
