OUR HISTORY
Since its establishment in 1988, our church has undergone various stages of growth under different pastors. Initially known as TAG Lake View Church under Pastor ............. and later Bishop Valentine Felix Mbuke, we have experienced God's favor in numerous ways. When Bishop Mbuke joined us in 2010, there were just 72 members, and by the grace of God, our congregation has now grown to a total number of more than 1250 church members.

OUR MISSION AT BMCC
The
Great Commission
In fulfilling the great Commission, BMCC exists to reach Up – (Worship), reach In (building up each other) and reach Out – (Missions by the Power of the Holy Spirit.)
-
Reaching Up/Worship is a way of life to celebrate the presence of God personally and together in spirit and truth (John 4:23-24; Rom 12:1; Ps 150).
-
Reaching In to us means showing God's Love to all people. Every believer is a minister by the grace of God, and by the power of the Holy Spirit (Zech 4:6; Rom 12:6-8; ICor 12:4-7; 14:12; Eph4:12; Phil 2:13; IPet 4:10-11). Maintaining love and unity for all believers. (Rom 12:5; Acts 2:42-47, ICor 12:12-27; Eph 2:19-22)
REACHING OUT
-
Reaching Out/Preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ is the resolution of every ministry and partner of TAG (Luke 19:10, Math 28: 19-20, Acts 1:8, 1Cor 9:19-23, Heb 5:14). The service of reaching, teaching and empowering Christians to grow in salvation so that they become like Christ (Acts 20:20, 27; Eph 4:11-16, Col 1:9, Heb 5:14).
Our church is dedicated to outreach, and we have successfully preached the gospel and established over 32 churches in Tanzania. Since their founding, these churches have been fully supported by our BMCC Church.
