Few announcements are more exciting than the beginning of a new school. We are thrilled to share with you the establishment of the International School of Theology in Haiti. There is a special and unique quality that exists with the beginning of this new school; we are partnering with Freed-Hardeman University in the establishment and operations of IST in Haiti.
Larry Waymire will serve as the coordinator for this new work and classes are set to begin in August. The first class is planning to have 24 students who will begin full-time preparations for preaching the gospel of Jesus. The Broad Street Church of Christ in Lexington, TN will serve as the overseeing congregation for the work.
We are excited about the new school and the partnership with one of our brotherhood universities. We know this will show a powerful sign of unity to the brethren in Haiti and in the U.S. of our working together in the strengthening of the church in Haiti. We ask you to be praying about this opportunity and the development of the work.
Other news from the extension schools is also exciting as God works through each school in spreading the news of Jesus. The news of God giving the increase is always encouraging and keeps us focused on the purpose for the work we are involved with in each location.
Now on to the other reports...

The program continues to grow and we look forward to the development of future locations where faithful men will be trained to go and preach the gospel to the lost where they live.
