MISSIONS
WE LOVE MISSIONS!
Jesus called us to make disciples of ALL nations, so we extend our discipleship outside of the four walls of the BCM to our Campus, our Community, our Country, and the World!
At the BCM we are very missions-minded, and we encourage all Austin Peay BCM students to serve in missions. As followers of Christ, we are to be on mission for God every day. Our locations and opportunities will vary from year to year, but we encourage our students to do their part in carrying out the Great Commission. We love to work with local churches and ministries and also give our students international opportunites.
SEE WHAT OUR STUDENTS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THEIR MISSIONS EXPERIENCES!
Kaidence Parker - Sophomore
“I have never had a thought about traveling to New York in my life but I am so happy that I did. New York is a completely different world that I am definitely not used to, but I loved it. Working with Graffiti 2 was so amazing because I got to see the community that the church had built in Mott Haven, NY. It was so cool getting to walk around and see one of the church members just go up to someone that I saw as a random person, but they saw a friend. I hope that one day Clarksville could be the same. My favorite thing I did while on the mission trip was probably getting to help out the homeless and give them a meal. To see how thankful they were for that one meal was so amazing and reminded me how thankful I needed to be for all that God has given me.”

“Over the summer I was blessed to serve alongside my friends from APSU BCM in Europe. Throughout the week we got the chance to pour Christ’s love out into city locals, and we also were consistently being filled with love and teachings everyday by a local ministry. The thing I enjoyed most was experiencing a new culture and exploring God’s creation while simultaneously being able to share the gospel to others. My favorite memory while on the mission was getting to meet two foreign exchange students from China. They were so genuinely curious in what we had to say and why we traveled halfway across the world to say it. As believers we should treat everyday as a mission, but it was so cool seeing God’s plan work in action around the world."
