Graduates from Denver and several other locations in the extension program are now located in their respective places and beginning to serve the church. After two years of intense study, these men and their families are prepared to help the local church grow numerically and spiritually. We are encouraged by their desire and pray God will bless their efforts for His kingdom.
Moving through the summer months seems a little more quiet than usual. We do have a few more graduations scheduled throughout the extension program and we know God will continue to bless those who are studying during these months. We are encouraged by the diligence and dedication of each of these men who “press on toward the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus,” as Paul identified in Philippians.
Reports this week describe the current work of students in their day-to-day activities in the classroom and their evangelistic involvement. We know that you will be encouraged when you read through each report this week and see how God continues to give the increase to the Gospel preached by these brethren. The kingdom grows on a daily basis, as these reports indicate.
Please pray for these good brethren as they prepare and preach. One report addresses the nature of the work from the local prison in Cameroon. They face numerous challenges each day and willingly endure because of the good news about our Savior. Our prayer is that God will help us pursue the cause with the same level of commitment, reaching out with the Gospel to the people in our own country.
Now on to this week’s incredible reports...
