In the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus tells us that the harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Then, he commands us to pray that the Lord of the harvest would raise up more laborers. So, that is what we’re asking you to do:
Will you join your SEND BCM/D team and pray that God will raise up more laborers? Join us at one of our four gatherings across MD/DE to seek God and his will for our region.
The prayer gathering is open to all – pastors, ministry leaders, church members, church attendees – as anyone can be a part of church planting and revitalization!

George Liele Church Planting, Evangelism, And Missions Sunday
2025-02-02 | MD
Southern Baptists set aside the first Sunday in February to celebrate the work and leadership of African American and Black pioneers such as:

George Liele, who many acknowledge as the first overseas missionary from the United States in 1782
Lott Carey, who organized African American missions in the 1800s
S.M. Lockridge, who was a faithful preacher of the gospel in the 20th century
Sid Smith, who was one of the first African American Southern Baptist denominational leaders in the modern era
Fred Luter, who was elected as the first African American president of the Southern Baptist Convention.

We celebrate the life and work of these men by recognizing that their legacy encourages us to send more African American and Black missionaries. The world’s greatest problem is still lostness and there is no problem that should unify us more, because in the gospel, God has given the solution. Together, we get to share the good news of Jesus with people and places who have never heard the gospel.

About the Speaker...

Dr. Larry Anderson holds a doctor of ministry degree from Biblical Theological Seminary, Hatfield, Pa. His dissertation topic centered on ministering to a community with the whole Gospel through its existing social services. The project assessed the social organizations of the West Oak Lane community and two agencies were identified for partnering with the Great Commission Church. The church has continued with this “Missional Living” model reaching out to the community with many ministries. As an assistant professor, teaching Practical Theology, Dr. Anderson taught and advised many students and developed the Urban Programs for the seminary. He also held many leadership positions while in college, and is called on by several organizations to be one of the leading voices of missional theology in an urban context.

In-Person Sexual Abuse Awareness Training
2024-09-28 09:00 - 10:30 | MD
For: Church leadership, staff, and volunteers
YOU ASKED AND WE MADE IT HAPPEN!
Many churches have asked for in-person sexual abuse awareness training for their church staff and volunteers. Kris Buckman is now a certified sexual abuse awareness trainer through Plan to Protect®! If your church does not use an online provider for sexual abuse awareness training, such as MinistrySafe or Protect My Ministry, BCM/D is pleased to offer an in-person alternative. It is strongly recommended that church leadership and anyone serving children, youth, and vulnerable adults are trained in abuse awareness.
Sexual abuse awareness training is the first line of defense in preventing and responding to sexual abuse and sets the foundation for a church’s policies and procedures. Anyone working with children must be able to recognize the signs and symptoms of abuse, understand the grooming process of predators, and know how to appropriately respond when abuse is suspected, witnessed, or disclosed. All of which will be covered in this training.
Participants will be quizzed on the material at the end of the session, and upon successfully passing, they will receive a certificate of completion (good for one year). Certificates should be placed in the participants’ personnel file.
This is the first recommended essential in BCM/D’s Pathways process: TRAIN, SCREEN, PROTECT, REPORT, CARE.
When: Choose from three dates: January 13, May 18, September 28 9 – 10:30 am
Where: BCM/D office 10255 Old Columbia Rd. Columbia, MD 21046
Cost: $5 per person (Not to exceed $50 per church. If your church sends over ten people, the cost will only be $50).
