Providing for Parents of Students

The Residence Life Program provides parents the option of offering a safe environment and a quality education for their students, while they continue their work at their respective jobs and ministry placements around the world.

The BFA Residence Life Program is unique for several reasons

  • The residences are located in the numerous villages surrounding Kandern, Germany.
  • Each residence builds community and creates its own identity through traditions, weekly dorm fellowship times, and special celebrations throughout the school year.
  • Boarding life strives to emulate an atmosphere that encourages and stimulates good interpersonal relationships and acceptance of others.
