BCM  --  Baptist Campus Ministries
Gadsden State, Cherokee Campus

Thank you churches, for your donations & meals you provided for the students.  BCM will began back with the 2017 Fall Semester.

 

 

The Cherokee Baptist Association
is no longer receiving used church literature.  
For years, we worked with a local source and a church in Oxford to pass these materials on.  Recently, both sources have closed down this ministry leaving us with no workable options to continue this ministry.
