What is ministry referral?

The Ministry Referral Service of The Baptist College of Florida provides resumes of BCF students and alumni to churches and other ministries that are seeking persons to fill staff positions. The resume service is only available to students and alumni of the college.

How can I add my resume?

1. First, you will need to complete the on-line ministry referral submission form. Please read the information below in its entirety before completing the form. The form is located at the bottom of this page.
2. Second, you will need to submit a current resume for distribution.
• Prepare your resume in standart, format preferably in Microsoft Word, but other word processing software will be accepted. However, the file must be saved as an RTF file, that is, Rich Text Format.
• In effort to streamline this process, please follow the resume guide available in pdf format here. (You will need the free Acrobat Reader to open this file. To download a free copy of the Reader click here.) Please follow the resume format and limit your resume to two pages.
• Please have a recent photograph scanned into your resume in the upper right corner of the first page. If you cannot do this, please e-mail a recent photograph of yourself with your resume. If you are married the photograph may be of you and your family. This photo will not be returned.
• After completing your resume, .e-mail the rtf file as an attachment to whfloyd@baptistcollege.edu.
• You may wish to have additional information or resources ready, such as a video or audio tape, when a church contacts you and requests it.
3. Next your resume will be sent to those churches who request them from our office. Our service exists to only to distribute resumes. After distribution it is up to the church to then contact you further. You will not be notified each time your resume is distributed, however, as long as it is active in our system it will be sent to each church with an appropriate request meeting your criteria.
4. Last, but not least . . .When you are called to a position with a church, please notify our office in order that we may deactivate your file and discontinue sending out your resume. If any information changes on an active file, i.e. address, references, etc., please notify us so that we may keep your resume as current as possible. This small effort will help us to better serve you and to serve those churches who are in need of staff.
