Marilyn & John Garcia, Founders

Hello everyone!

Six years ago, my life was changed forever when I visited a school that offered a traditional academic model as well as home school. I fell in love with the concept of merging these two academic streams. I began researching, visiting other community schools and after two years of praying . . .the Lord released me to plow the ground and establish Brandon Christian Community School. Four years ago, against all odds; I opened the doors to BCCS. I have seen God's faithfulness in so many ways, but it did not come without a price. In my heart I knew I was to be the one to break the fallow ground for BCCS and plant the seed, but God would bring those who would water the seeds so the school could be what He intended.

After much prayer, God has brought those who will continue to build BCCS and maximize its potential. It is with great joy and peace; I bid my farewell as the owner of Brandon Christian Community School. I have learned so many valuable lessons and met some wonderful people during this journey and I am truly grateful. Now I have been afforded one more precious opportunity to see the dream in God's heart continue under the ownership of Erik and Angela Henry. They are an amazing couple who are excited to begin their leg of this journey!

Many blessings to all who believed in and prayed for me, my family and BCCS! Thank you for your continued support and encouragement as I continue to embrace God's call to the this city as well as the nations.

BCCS Founder
