What people say about us

Since 1981, our friends at BASIC have provided vision and practical tools to help our church reach out to the local campuses. The BASIC conferences have been a fantastic experience for students; they have consistently encouraged their love and devotion for Christ.
Rick Sinclair, Pastor
For my entire life, I was searching for meaning. I was searching for something to find strength in. In the moment that I was saved by Jesus, all of my pain and strife and suffering from 18 years of life was replaced with love that has no equal.
Emily, Student
The Lord used BASIC mightily during our time at Geneseo. We have shared our testimony at our group and have been able to witness to our families. I was baptized with my mom and Brendan. The Lord is changing the atmosphere wherever he puts us.
Brendan & Katy, Students
BASIC is just a small part of our budget, but it has a big impact on our church…The BASIC group has provided a steady influx of college students to our church body. They have a positive influence on our young people, and their enthusiasm encourages our older members.
Ron Burgio, Pastor
