WElcome!

You are always welcome here!

The head of the Church is Jesus Christ!  We are stewards of God's creation and the gifts God has given to us.  We follow the biblical model of leadership as we are ruled by elders (that is what Presbyterian means).  Our leadership of ruling elders  is called Session.  These elders prayerfully seek the will God and mind of Christ in the decisions they make for the Church.  The pastor serves as moderator of Session.  If you have any questions or would like more information about BPC please call us at (812) 358-4198 or email by clicking here.  We hope you'll come safely worship with us soon.  May God bless you and keep you!
