Our Baptism and Membership Course will be undergoing two phases of restructuring, with Phase 1 commencing in Oct 2020 until Apr 2021. We hope this will provide our candidates with a more enriching, well-grounded experience as they commit to journeying as Disciples of Christ and members of the BRMC family.
