Wednesdays at BFC Students

BFC Students meets every Wednesday from 6 to 7:30pm Our goal is to help students to develop their own faith and be sent out into the world.

Each week, worship comes first to focus our hearts on God. Worship helps us let go of distractions, reminds us of God’s presence, and unites us in gratitude and faith. It’s our way of preparing to hear from God and grow together as a community.

Worship

The message is a time to dive into God’s Word and discover how it speaks to our lives today. It challenges us to grow, encourages us to live with purpose, and helps us understand God’s truth. This time helps us take what we hear and put it into action, so our faith isn’t just what we believe, but how we live.
