What is the BCM?
The BCM is a Christ-Centered, student led organization. The BCM exists to help students come to an understanding of the message of the Gospel, urge them to consider the impact it can have on their life, encourage them to commit their life to Jesus Christ, and grow in their understanding of what it means to be a Christian.
We offer ministries that help us achieve this goal such as worship, student led small group Bible Studies, Intramural Sports, Mission Opportunities, and much more. We also have a game room, with a ping pong table, a pool table, a TV, and couches as well as several study spaces available.
If you are a student at UAB, we hope to see you soon. We are located at 1216 15th Street South, just behind the CVS and student parking lot, feel free to come visit us or give us a call at 930-0035.
