Childcare: Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry does not provide childcare. However, you may contact Bethel Christian Preschool at (530) 246-6010 for information on childcare costs.

Bethel Christian School: Bethel offers a private Christian School for ages Pre-K-8th Grade. If you have children that you are considering enrolling into BCS, I would encourage you to start the application process early as enrollment is limited and it does fill up fast. Please note that BCS starts school in August and not September. You will want to make sure your move to Redding is done far enough in advance to accommodate their start date. Visit the following link for more information www.bcsredding.org. New enrollment applications for 2012-2013 will be accepted beginning March 1st, though not processed until March 15th. We will notify parents of the availability of openings on the 15th.
Housing: Each student is responsible for their own living expenses and arrangements. You may contact the school office for limited assistance in locating housing.
Simpson University has made room and board available to our students for the 2011-2012 school year for a reasonable rate.

For more information, see our Simpson Housing page.
