BGMC giving Sunday

K-5th graders have an opportunity on the last Sunday of every month to give to BGMC (Boys and Girls Missionary Challenge).

On Sunday, March 30 our students will be serving coffee and donuts that day and you can leave a special offering at the coffee bar for BGMC.

What is BGMC?

BGMC is the only long-standing missions ministry partner in the Assemblies of God that awakens and activates creative compassion in kids within the local church so that the next generation is empowered to pray, give, and go. We are engaging storytellers, givers, local leaders, and directors who challenge kids to embrace sacrificial living for the sake of the gospel. We see every generation personally responsible for the Mission of the Church and strive to instill a missional worldview with the goal of compassionate Missions Champions who discover how God’s heart can be their heart.”

 

Where Do BGMC Offerings Come From?

  • Young children giving in Buddy Barrels

  • Older children making faith promises

  • Parents and other adults receiving special offerings

What Does BGMC Money Buy?

Our missionaries can use BGMC funds for any ministry supplies that relate to evangelism and discipleship.

  • Puppets, music, and videotapes

  • Tracts, Bibles, and literature

  • Sound systems, computers, and copy machines

  • And a whole lot more!

Why Give Offerings To BGMC?

BGMC goes to where the need is the greatest, where the timing is the most urgent, and where people's lives can be changed forever.

When you give to BGMC, you are helping our entire ministry team all at once!

Our Goal:
For the year of 2025, our church giving goal is $1,800.
In 2024, we gave $1,693
