Life Groups are a great place to connect with other students in a small group setting.  These groups provide you with an opportunity to study God’s Word with other students as well as the chance to really share what is going on in your life with others.  These groups are a place where students can be real and share their hearts with one another in a safe place.

“Being a part of a small group changed my life,” says BCM intern, Natalie Flake.  “My college small group taught me how to study God’s Word and allowed me to form meaningful relationships with other students.  Those who were in my small group came to be some of the best friends I’ve ever had.”

Leadership Team

BCM is largely student led. Each year, students are chosen to serve on the Leadership Team. The Leadership Team works with the BCM Staff and serves in freshman ministries, worship, fellowship, communications, missions, sports ministries, outreach, discipleship, creative ministry and community ministries.

IMPACT

IMPACT is a ministry of BCM that seeks to exalt Christ through drama. The IMPACT team ministers at FUSION, at local churches, mission’s settings and more!  This year, Jacob Bagwell is leading this creative ministry.  No matter if you’re a regular thespian or if you’ve never done drama at all, you are invited to be a part of this vibrant ministry.

Without Lips

Worship happens in a variety of ways. Signing the lyrics to Christian songs has become a valuable addition in many worship services. Without Lips trains its members how to sign and gives them the opportunity to lead worship through sign language.  Without Lips is available to minister in local churches and at community events. Ciara Canady is taking the lead in this ministry.

Disciple Now Teams

A Disciple Now is a weekend retreat that local churches sponsor and is geared towards middle school and high school students. It is a weekend ministry with the goal of challenging and stretching students to become more committed Disciples of Christ. As a Disciple Now leader, you would be leading a small group of either middle or high school students for the weekend.   BCM equips students in how to lead in Disciple Now’s and strives to connect these students with area churches who need assistance in leading their youth.

Community Ministry Team

College students have a lot to offer the community and this team tries to equip students in serving the local community. This ministry team provides opportunities for students to serve the community. Some examples of how this ministry serves are nursing home visits, helping at the food pantry, balloon animals and face painting in Helen. Fabiola Toussaint leads the Meals on Wheels team and Stephanie Strong is in charge of nursing home visits.

Sports Ministry

Athletics play a major role in the lives of many students. Athletes have incredibly busy schedules and this ministry is designed to adjust to the changing needs of Truett’s athletes. Christian White leads this ministry and seeks to find innovative ways to reach and equip athletes for Christ.

TMC Missions Center

Take a moment to visit the Missions Center and let us know about Mission trips that you have taken while attending Truett-McConnell College.

Approximately 35 Truett-McConnell College students served in special summer missions projects during the summer of 2008, carrying the message of Christ across the United States and around the world.  Two of those students have written accounts of their summer missions experiences.
