2026-2027 KIDS BGMC Giving


Give to BGMC


TLDR
  • BGMC helps kids participate in missions by giving to help missionaries and ministries share Jesus and meet needs around the world.
  • Our goal isn’t only to raise money. We want to help our kids develop a lifelong heart for generosity, missions, and reaching people with the Gospel.
  • Kids can bring their BGMC offering to Commission Kids or families can give online using the Give to BGMC button below.
Why We’re Giving

We believe kids don’t have to wait until they’re adults to participate in the mission of God.

Through BGMC, our Commission Kids get an opportunity to pray, give, learn about missionaries, and discover what God is doing around the world.

A few dollars may not seem like much, but when kids from churches across the country give together, their generosity can make an incredible impact.

More importantly, we’re helping our kids learn something that can shape the rest of their lives:

God can use what I have to help someone else know Jesus.

What Is BGMC?

BGMC stands for Boys and Girls Missionary Challenge and is the missions giving program for kids in the Assemblies of God.

BGMC helps provide missionaries and ministries with the resources they need to share the Gospel and meet practical needs around the world.

Through BGMC, kids aren’t simply learning about missions.

Kids get to participate in missions.

Our BGMC Goal

Goal: $1000

Raised: $265 / $1000

Progress: 26%

We’ll update this page as our kids continue giving so families can follow our progress together!

Every gift matters, whether it’s a handful of change, birthday money, money earned from chores, or something a child intentionally chooses to give.

Why This Matters

We want generosity to become part of the discipleship of our kids.

Our goal isn’t simply for adults to give money on behalf of their children so we can reach a number.

  • We want kids involved.
  • We want them asking questions about missionaries.
  • We want them praying for people around the world.
  • We want them experiencing the joy of giving something that belongs to them.

And ultimately, we want to raise a generation that believes following Jesus means participating in His mission.

Pray With Your Kids

Take some time as a family to pray for:

  • Missionaries serving around the world
  • Children who haven’t heard about Jesus
  • Churches and ministries meeting practical needs in their communities
  • People who will hear the Gospel because of BGMC
  • Our Commission Kids as they learn to live generously
Frequently Asked Questions

What is BGMC?

BGMC stands for Boys and Girls Missionary Challenge. It’s the Assemblies of God missions program designed specifically to help kids participate in missions through praying, giving, and learning about needs around the world.

Where does our BGMC money go?

BGMC giving helps missionaries and ministries purchase resources they need to share Jesus and serve people around the world.

Throughout the year, we’ll also introduce our kids to missionaries and missions projects so they can better understand the people and ministries their generosity helps support.

How can my child give?

Kids can bring their BGMC offering with them to Commission Kids.

Families can also give online using the Give to BGMC button on this page.

Can parents give?

You can, but we especially want to encourage kids to participate in the giving process themselves.

Consider helping your child find age-appropriate ways to earn or set aside money for BGMC. The amount isn’t what’s most important. We’re helping kids learn that generosity is part of following Jesus.

Does a small gift really matter?

Yes! BGMC works because kids everywhere give what they can. When thousands of children participate together, small gifts become a powerful resource for missions.

Every gift also gives us an opportunity to teach our kids about generosity and God’s mission.


Your Next Step

Talk about BGMC with your kids this week.

Pray together about missions and help them decide how they would like to participate.

Together, our kids can help the whole world know Jesus!

Your kids need to join Junior Bible Quiz!
Junior Bible Quiz is Back at Commission Church! Junior Bible Quiz is Back at Commission Church!Sign up for JBQ TLDR 📖 Junior Bible Quiz (JBQ) is relaunching at Commission Church 🕘 Sundays at 9:00 AM during Discipleship Hour 👧 Open for age 4–5th Grade 📚 Kids will memorize scripture, learn Bible doctrine, and grow in biblical understanding 🗂️ Every child will receive a JBQ binder with all official JBQ questions for study at home 🏆 During the school year, teams compete one Saturday morning each month against other churches 👨‍👩‍👧 JBQ is a family discipleship tool. Growth happens both at church and at home. ❤️ Our goal is to help kids know the Bible, love Jesus, and build their lives on God’s Word 🗓️ Fall 2026 Start Date: Sunday August 9th, 2026 Junior Bible Quiz is Back at Commission Church! Psalm 119:11 says: I have hidden your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you. (NLT) At Commission Church, we believe children are capable of knowing God’s Word deeply, not just hearing Bible stories occasionally. That’s why we are excited to relaunch Junior Bible Quiz (JBQ) during our Sunday morning Discipleship Hour at 9 AM! This gives you an opportunity to bring your kids to church while you attend our discipleship class in the sanctuary. JBQ is designed for children ages 4 through 5th grade and is one of the most effective discipleship tools for helping kids memorize Scripture, understand biblical truths, and develop a lifelong love for the Bible. Hiding God’s Word in our hearts is one of the greatest gifts I was given as a child. From a young age, I knew God’s truth, and it formed and guided my life. JBQ is a gift to our children. We will be starting Junior Bible Quiz for the fall of 2026 on Sunday, August 9th at 9 am in the classroom What is Junior Bible Quiz? Junior Bible Quiz is a fun, engaging, and scripture-centered discipleship ministry that helps children learn and retain God’s Word through: Bible memorization Interactive questions and answers Team participation Friendly competition Foundational doctrine and theology Weekly discipleship and encouragement Kids are challenged to grow in their understanding of scripture while building confidence, friendships, and a deeper relationship with Jesus. During the school year, our JBQ teams also compete one Saturday morning each month against other churches in exciting quiz competitions. These events give kids the opportunity to work together, apply what they’ve learned, build friendships, and grow in confidence while having an incredible amount of fun. Every child participating in JBQ will receive a binder containing all of the official JBQ questions and material. This binder will serve as their primary study tool throughout the year as they memorize scripture and grow in biblical understanding. JBQ is only as successful as the families make it. While we are committed to investing in children each Sunday morning, one hour of practice, teaching, and training is not enough to truly hide the Word of God in our kids’ hearts. JBQ is a discipleship tool, and real spiritual formation happens when families intentionally engage with scripture throughout the week. As parents practice verses, review questions, and encourage consistency at home, children begin building lifelong foundations in God’s Word. We do not simply want children to attend church. We want them to know the Bible, recognize the voice of God, and build their lives on truth. In a world constantly trying to shape our children, we believe we must actively work to form them through the Word of God. Check out this video with some real questions from JBQ: This is a video of a JBQ round:Sign up for JBQ Why JBQ Matters Children are constantly being shaped by the world around them. JBQ helps ground them in truth before culture shapes their worldview. When children memorize scripture early in life, those truths stay with them for years to come. JBQ helps students: Hide God’s Word in their hearts Develop biblical literacy Grow spiritually at an early age Build confidence in scripture Learn discipline and consistency Prepare to defend and live out their faith Many mature believers today point back to Bible memorization ministries like JBQ as foundational moments in their spiritual journey. WHY JBQ CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE! Who Can Participate? JBQ is open for children ages 4 through 5th grade. No prior experience is needed! Whether your child knows a few Bible stories or already loves memorizing scripture, JBQ is a welcoming place to grow. 🗓️ Fall 2026 Start Date: Sunday August 9th, 2026 When Does It Meet? 🕘 Sundays at 9:00 AM 📍 During our Discipleship Hour Our Goal Our desire is not simply to help children attend church. We want to help them become disciples who know the Bible, love Jesus, and live with confidence in God’s truth. We believe God’s Word changes lives, even at a young age.
