Looking for a Church?

BJU encourages all students to be heavily involved in a local Greenville-area church. Many of the churches around us rely on students to help with nursery, choir, children's programs and youth group. While all of these are very important for the function of a local church, we encourage you also to partner with churches in evangelistic outreaches. This is another way our students can "reach beyond" themselves.
