BCM International was founded in 1936 as the Bible Club Movement when some young people in Philadelphia asked Bessie Traber, a missionary who had returned from the Philippines, to run Bible clubs for them like those she had organised overseas.  Over the years the Bible Club Movement spread into Europe, Asia, Latin America, and Africa.  As children’s ministries expanded to Christian camps, church planting, leadership training, publishing Bible teaching materials, and a variety of compassion and counselling ministries, BCM modified its name to reflect its ever-widening focus, becoming Bible Centred Ministries.

Today Bible Centred Ministries International has more than 700 missionaries representing five different continents serving in more than 50 countries around the world.  


In 1947 BCM arrived in the UK with Bible clubs run by volunteers.  Within a year there were 48 Bible clubs around the country and there was a need for full-time workers.  An office was set up in London and over the years BCM missionaries began to arrive.  In 1975 the UK headquarters was moved to Weston-super-Mare where it is still based today.
