We seek to fulfill this mission through Scripture distribution, promotion, and education. We desire to be a Bible ministry resource for churches, other ministries and individual Christians throughout Maine. We maintain a variety of Bibles, testaments and other Scripture resources at our office and Scripture Center in Portland. Our Outreach Grants program subsidizes materials for qualifying missions and ministry efforts. We sponsor programs and events to encourage Bible reading, and to enhance people's understanding of God's Word.
Membership is open to all churches and individuals who support our mission.
BSM is independent. We are incorporated as an independent agency, governed by a Board of Directors made up of members from within Maine. We cooperate in ministry with the American Bible Society, the International Bible Society, the Bible League, the Laymen's National Bible Association and The Gideons, among others, but we are not formally affiliated with any other organization. We are a member of the National Association of State and Regional Bible Societies. BSM is ecumenical.
