CBC Day 2022 Announced

         Thank you to the faithful churches of the BMAA in partnering with CBC in helping us to carry out our mission of transforming this generation through higher education that “integrates Christian faith and academic excellence in a Christ-centered environment.”

         CBC Day for 2022 has been scheduled for Sunday, Sept. 11. We are encouraging churches to set aside this Sunday, or another day which best fits your church calendar, to pray for CBC. Churches are also encouraged to take a one-time offering for the annual fund program, “Gifts that Transform,” and/or make a pledge to give additional offerings over the 12 months to follow. The ultimate goal of the annual “CBC Day” is to fully underwrite the expenses associated with the Bible and Missions Departments and to fund the Ministry Tuition Grant Program — all distinctives of CBC.

         It is my strong desire that the churches of the BMAA come together for one day of our three-month Special Emphasis and see what God can and will do through our people.
