Partnership Requests

Let us use our networks and connections to help your church find long-term partners.

The BCNE shares partnership requests through various channels, but, unfortunately, we can’t guarantee a match.

Your church agrees to take full responsibility for managing the project, and potential partners will be encouraged to contact you directly.
If your request involves work with children or youth, you must ensure that all incoming volunteers have had a background check within the last two years and have received training on child/youth protection in ministry. (Visit our Safety & Security page if you need some guidance on this step.) By submitting a request, you acknowledge your responsibility to ensure volunteers have completed security training and background checks according to your state and local laws.
*Please note that requests can only be accepted from BCNE member churches in good standing.
