churches in boston college life group meetings

College Ministry

We believe that college students can change the world.

Throughout history, university students have proven themselves capable of changing the world. Church history is no exception! At Antioch Community Church Brighton we recognize the college years as a unique window of time in a person’s life, ideal for growth and transformation as a follower of Jesus.

When and where do we meet?

Our weekly small groups, Lifegroups, are where we meet together to worship, pray, read the Bible, and learn what it looks like to follow Jesus in college- all while having fun! No matter where you feel like you are in your journey with God, you are welcome!

Sunday Service

We meet at 10:30am on Sundays at the Edison K-8 School right next to Boston College's campus. (60 Glenmont Rd; Brighton)

Rides to church are provided by young adults & families in our church the first few weeks of the semester.

Want a ride to church this week? Fill out our college student ride share form by 8am on Sunday. We will text you the pick-up location, name, license plate and photo of your driver by 9:45am.

If you attend Boston College: fill out the Boston College ride share form

If you attend any other university in Boston, fill out the general share ride form.

Email Rosie Holmes (rosieholmes@accboston.org), College Pastor, with any questions!
