About Us
BCM is a place for students to explore the claims of Jesus Christ and experience the excitement of answering the call to follow Him.
BCM stands for Baptist Collegiate Ministries, but you don’t need to be a Baptist, or even a Christian, to find a home here. Our students come from all kinds of backgrounds. We receive generous support from churches in the Florida Baptist Convention, and we’re thankful for it! Those churches–over 2800 of them across the state of Florida–and the people who faithfully contribute to them, have committed to invest in this ministry, and in you! Everyone is welcome!
BCM exists to reach out and serve our local college campuses, and BCM @ UCF is here for students at the University of Central Florida and surrounding colleges like Valencia College, Seminole State and Full Sail University. You can contact us by emailing ucfbcm@ucfbcm.com and connecting with us on our Social Media!
Our Location
Cape Florida Ballroom on the third floor of the Student Union.
