At BICF ZGC we are gathering, growing, and going…

Gathering – People from many nations gather together to worship and serve the Lord Jesus Christ throughout BICF. We preview the day those from ‘every tongue, tribe, people, and nation’ will gather before Him. He is the Chief Gatherer and He enlists us to bring people into the joy of His family.

Sundays we're in Xijiao Hotel. During the week we gather in Café Heaven, dorm rooms, apartments, restaurants, parks – our Father owns this city! As we each share some of our time, talents, and treasures we see Him do great things for the glory of His name.

Growing – Jesus invites us into a life-transforming journey with Him - He’s given His Word, Spirit, and family. He is making us true ‘living letters’ for our lost world. The message of the Cross challenges this world. But be encouraged! A new world has been born in Christ’s resurrection.

Going – Jesus commands us to “make disciples” – in every country, into every corner of this city. He holds “all authority in heaven and earth.” In ZGC we learn more about going with Him day by day so that we might serve Him around the world year after year.
