OUR HEARTBEAT
BCH: MANY MINISTRIES BEATING WITH ONE HEART
The heart of Baptist Children's Homes (BCH) beats with a rhythm of hope that extends to children, families and adults. For every person's specific need, there is a unique BCH ministry ready to help. We are many ministries beating with one heart -- the heartbeat of Jesus.

Through the EVERY CHILD Foster & Adoption Initiative, a BCH/NC Baptists partnership, we train and license couples to be foster families to give every child a caring, Christian home. BCH's Christian Adoption Services aids couples with domestic and international adoption. We counsel expectant mothers helping them make an adoption plan for their unborn child -- we show them the beauty of choosing life.
