Training God’s Children in God’s Truth
A Note From Pastor Brian Pardun
In 2019 I came to the leaders and asked what God was saying; as leaders we began to pray about how God wanted us to impact the community around us. We began to sense He was leading us to something that was previously not on our radar. I sensed God was calling me to either start a shelter or a school that would have an immediate effect on the people.
So my friend Rick joined me in a sincere effort to hear what we should do next. For five years we prayed and waited, and waited, and waited. I prayed that God would make things happen in the way He wanted, so we did not pursue or do anything on our ability but asked that He would bring people to us. In 2020 Covid hit and many things shut down.
In 2023 God began to bring people to us. People came and asked if I ever thought of starting a school, and I laughed. Everything rapidly began to fall into place. There was a time when I was starting to question if I heard from God correctly, but looking back if we would have started in 2020, with the pandemic it would have been extremely difficult. God’s timing is always right.
There is a battle going on around us right now, and it is for worship. Who will we worship, the worlds system or God. Our culture is being manipulated by the forces of darkness and many are blind. Our children are suffering because of the lack of values and commitment to foundational truths found only in the word of God.

BCS does not discriminate based on race, color, gender, nor national and ethnic origin in administration of its educational policies, admission policies, scholarship programs, athletics, and other school-administered programs.
BCS relies on tuition, fundraising, gifts and donations to operate, we do not accept government funding. Therefore we ask that prompt and consistent payments be made which in turn allows us the ability to provide the services needed to help fulfill our mission.
Tuition cost and other related fees are established by the school board each academic year. Multi-child discounts, full time staff discounts, volunteer, and clergy discounts are available to help keep Christian education affordable. Financial aid to qualifying families is also available.
Along with the above parents are encouraged to contribute to the needs of the school by volunteering their time in as many functions as possible. Volunteers are needed in the areas of buildings and grounds, classroom helpers, field trip chaperons, providing hot lunch and various fund raising tasks/events.
We ask that in lieu of volunteering, families who are able consider making a financial contribution.
