Graduation! An exciting time which we all remember or look forward to with anticipation. It is the culmination and celebration of several years of academic growth. Afterwards, we take our place as adults as we pursue higher education, jobs, families, and so much more! Life at BFA holds so much for our students as they not only study academics, but also deepening their personal relationship with Christ through small groups, Refugee outreach, Chapel, HS retreat, and Mission Trips, take on leadership roles as small group leaders, class officers, head of sports teams, leading Worship Band for Chapel, and so much more! Deep friendships are made through Dorm life through many different dorm activities; trips to Christmas markets, sleepovers, dorm retreat, Fellowship nights, and many more activities. Life at BFA is full and can become overflowing if one is not careful! Yet, in the midst of all of the activities, students thrive and are lead on a journey to discover their uniqueness in Christ and prepare for their future.
When Seniors graduate, they are leaving another home behind; deep relationships with friends and teachers which they may never see again. Saying good-bye is hard, emotional and can be heart breaking to watch and experience. Please keep our Seniors in prayer as they embark on a new adventure; most of them returning or traveling to the States. Since the majority of our students are Third Culture Kids (TCK's) and have been living and moving around the world as missionary kids, they do not in many cases have a strong connection to the US. They will be living on a different continent far from their parents and friends. Pray they can connect to new friendships and that their relationship with Christ would strengthen and flourish. So ends their journey at BFA as they embark on a new expedition...
