Send a Handwritten Letter

When our mission teams travel to our schools during the summer months, you are welcome to send handwritten letters/pictures, and we will send them over with a BCA mission team leader.

We can also scan your handwritten letter and email it to our team in Zambia for distribution to the child.

Your letter can be mailed to:

Bethlehem Christian Academy
PO Box 483
West Plains, MO 65775

Please do not send money in any form. Small gifts (such as friendship bracelets and small toys/trinkets) are acceptable.

 

Helpful tips for writing a letter:

  • Share a testimony, about how God has saved you and the Gospel has transformed your life.

  • You can include your favorite Bible verse or something God has been teaching you.

  • Let them know you are praying for them.

  • Write about different topics such as seasons, holiday traditions, family and pets, your job, hobbies, your involvement at church or your favorites (foods, sports, play activities, etc).

  • Include photos of yourself and your family. Label the names of each person on the back of the photo.

  • Avoid writing about the “stuff” you have as the children at the school are not as materially blessed as we are.

  • Avoid slang.

  • Do not offer your phone number, address, or email address.

  • Please do not include any money.
