As each week goes by, we are encouraged by the brethren we meet with to share the news about the extension program. Today, we met with brethren in Conway and Enola, Arkansas to present the work and the encouragement we received from our brothers and sisters is what makes the work even more exciting. The summer is full with more appointments in the weeks ahead, but we look forward to seeing everyone.
News from the schools reporting this week is even more exciting. Each report contains information that explains why we are so privileged to work with the dedicated men who are preparing themselves to serve the church in greater ways. Before they graduate, their involvement in sharing the gospel with others where they live continues to demonstrate the power of God who gives the increase.
The exciting nature of this work is also seen in the increased interest of men who desire to be involved in the next enrollment class. Nearly every school we have visited with reports more students for the next intake of students. Word is getting out and more students only means that more people will learn about Jesus where they live.
Each of you are part of this growth. Our prayer is that as you read through each report you will be encouraged and grow with excitement at what God is doing in and through the extension training program.
Now on to the other reports...
