Summer afternoons are always busy at the BCCM! Children are invited to play beginning at 1:30 PM and stay until 5:00 PM. They do recreation and crafts, watch cartoons and movies, play Nintendo and computers, spend time in the library, and learn music, puppets and drama. Bible study is also provided each day as well as refreshments. There are two full weeks of Vacation Bible School in July and two summer workers are hired for the
afternoons in the summer just for the kids! We often see 1 to 3 missionary groups during the summer offering
everything from music concerts to manual labor—but always taking something from the experience.
