Whether the mission is long or short term in nature, local or international, Louisiana BCMs strive to Reach, Connect, Strengthen, and Mobilize this collegiate generation. 

You can serve in Louisiana, the States, or the World!

Vacation Bible School is one of the most effective church ministries with the people of Louisiana. Join a team to serve next summer making an eternal impact teaching kids about Jesus and helping churches reach their community.
