Another exciting week unfolded over the last seven days with Bear Valley Bible Institute International. Students in Denver continue toward the half-way point in their second quarter of studies. As they prepare for mid-term exams, they also complete assignments for each class. They continue to be an encouragement in the dedication they display and determination to complete the program in Denver. Next month, Gary Pollard and Jesse LeMay will finish their journey. Please remember to pray for them as they leave Bear Valley and serve in God’s kingdom.
Two graduations are highlighted in this week’s report. One graduation recently occurred at Chimala Bible Institute (CBI) in Tanzania. Coupled with the exciting news of their graduation is the announcement of the incoming class they prepare to train. With more than thirty applicants, the need for help at CBI is pressing. Please read about the needs in Chimala for the upcoming class in January 2016.
In two weeks, Andrew Connally School of Preaching (ACSOP) will host their next graduation. Having graduated 140 men in the past, adding fifteen (15) more to this number continues to encourage everyone as the influence of the gospel spreads throughout the northern regions of Tanzania and surrounding countries. Remember to pray for CBI and ACSOP as they faithful train men to share the gospel of Jesus in East Africa.
Other reports below also provide news of the great work accomplished throughout the world. We urge you to read through the reports and pray for the work in each area. As God continues to bless the efforts of these men, we know Satan is working to stop the growth of His kingdom. Join us in prayer to strengthen the faith of all involved in our efforts to train men to preach the gospel to a lost and dying world.
