The week is ended as it began with wonderful news about the growth in the Lord’s kingdom. The reports this week share exciting news about the work of students who are proclaiming the gospel of Jesus and influencing souls eternally. We never tire in hearing about the ways God continues to give the increase and bless the work.
The week ahead brings an end to the third quarter of the academic year in Denver. This means that in one more quarter we will see another group of students graduate from their intense studies over the past two years and enter the ministry. We will share more in the weeks ahead about these men, their families, and their plans for serving in the ministry after they graduate. Their initial plans have them locating from the West coast to the East coast and as far away as Malawi.
Several of the locations where we partner in extension training also have graduations scheduled over the next few months. Seeing the development of these students and witnessing their efforts to glorify God through the preaching of the gospel continues to be exciting. We look forward to reporting more about these graduations and the development of the work in each location.
The development and growth that occurs each year through the graduates who enter into ministry excites everyone. The reports indicate only a few of the ways God is working in the world to reconcile the lost to Him through Jesus, our Lord and Savior.
God is great!
