All students of the college irrespective of any differences comes under the care of the Baptist College Fellowship once admitted into the college.

The Baptist College Ministry team is involved in the following activities:

  1. Devotional Services: Devotional services are held on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays for the different classes of both the Arts and Commerce sections. The participation of the students in these services is encouraged and this provides them an opportunity to explore their talents. It is a platform where they can exercise and develop their public skills.
  2. College Camp: The ministry also organizes a camp every year,  for a period of four days. The camp is where the ministry seeks to impact the lives of the campers with spiritual values and encourage them to develop a relationship with God. The camp focuses on small group Bible studies, dealing with challenging issues of life and helping them find a Christian response to these issues.
  3. The BCF is also partly involved in the Student Christian Fellowship (SCF). SCF is a Fellowship for students in Kohima which meets at 10:00 AM on Sundays at the Baptist College Campus.  Although the SCF is not directly associated with the Baptist College Fellowship, many of the BCF members are involved in organizing the SCF on Sundays.  SCF functions independently and has a wider audience reaching out to many students and hostellers from other colleges
