At BCC there is always something to do, whether it is helping to serve the tea and coffee at the end of the services, assisting with setting up, singing or playing an
instrument as part of the Music Ministry group, welcoming people at the door... the list goes on!
If you believe that God has equipped you with the gift of hospitality, abilities in cooking meals, computers, reading out loud or anything that might have a constructive use then we are sure that there is an area at BCC in which you can serve.
Those believing they have a prophetic gifting from the Lord are strongly encouraged to view our Policy on Directional Prophecy before exercising this gift.

Yes, we do enjoy our cake... But there is much more we do than just sit around eating nice nibbles at meetings!
The ministries outlined below are those which, as a church, we are committed to providing for the benefit of our congregation and for our local community of Bodmin.

Support Groups
We regard our support groups as vital for growth and encouragement.
Presently, we have three local mid-week gatherings we like to call Community Groups, one in the nearby village of Lanivet, one near Port Isaac and one in Bodmin itself. We also run other support groups which are usually smaller in size and cater for just the men or just the ladies. These include:
Men's Early Morning Fellowship - designed to build up and empower men to live for Christ and this takes place at the local Dragon Leisure Centre.
Prayer Triplets - enable fellowship and prayer in small groups and are a great way to get to know others on a more personal basis.
The Fiction Fellowship - a small group of women who are passionate about reading and really enjoy a good book. They choose from a variety of Christian fiction and biography and read titles together on a monthly basis. They then meet for fellowship, copious amount of cakes and goodies and to discuss thoughts on the book they are reading. You can currently follow this group on The Fiction Fellowship blog.
T2:4 - a bible study group for women based on the principles of Titus 2:4. This relaxed gathering starts at 9-10am for breakfast, then 10-11am for prayer & share and 11-12 for Bible study. Join in at any part or come for the whole morning. Children welcome.

Teaching
Teaching involves the Preaching of God's Word, our dedicated Children's Ministry which takes place during the Sunday service.
Preaching from the Bible enables us to hear collectively what God has communicated to us and encourages us to apply those teachings to our daily lives. Sermons at BCC are shared between the Associate Pastor and experienced seasoned preachers capable of helping others to understand the Scriptures.
The Church regularly updates its website with podcasts of the latest Sunday message for the benefit of online listeners.
Our Sunday Children's Ministry caters for children from ages 4 to 11. All adult teachers are CRB (Criminal Records Bureau) checked and dedicated to providing good Bible based education in fun ways!
Our current Child Protection Policy has been produced to cater for the Grace Family of churches to which Bodmin Community Church belongs.

Community Initiatives
At BCC we are not afraid
of trying new things to publish the good news of Jesus Christ. Currently, one of our foremost ways of connecting with children, for example, is through our 'LOL' (Lord of Lords) Puppet Team. Other ways we seek
to influence our community is through seasonal outreach events that take place in Bodmin Town.
Our Puppet Team are given regular opportunities to visit our local primary schools and prove very popular with the children. Singing well known songs with what we would regard as 'better lyrics' enables us to convey to the younger generation the benefits of a loving relationship with Jesus.
Our outreach strategy often takes advantage of the various historical traditions that Bodmin is accustomed to holding each year. St Piran's Day, Heritage Day and the switching on of the Christmas Tree lights on Mount Folly are great events for us to get to meet lots of people.
We have also run a number of CAP course (Christians Agains Poverty) to help those who are struggling to manage their money. This has been of particular blessing to many people and has enabled them to weather through our current difficult financial climate.
In addition, the Bodmin Community Church's website is always developing for the benefit of all online users and includes an extranet for church members who are actively engaged in ministry.
