Break for Change is PCI's short-term missions program that offers students opportunities to serve in communities across America and around the world. Over Spring Break students lead BFC trips to join ministries in inner cities, community centers, and churches after six months of preparation and team-building. One week of intensive ministry grows to an academic year of learning about, praying for, and loving our ministry partners. 

PCI works to cultivate long-term relationships with ministry partners by returning regularly, giving students and faculty an opportunity to visit again and grow along with them.  See photos »
