MONTHLY OPERATIONAL REPORT

JANUARY – MARCH, 2020

Thank God we are alive and seeing His Glory. There was panic all over, thank God it is now dying down but we are being curious and that all the necessary measures to prevent the spread of the virus are being observed.

Our fellowship with Bear Valley International has been a blessing as we now have the needed logistics in place and that is helping with the teaching and learning in the school. Our students are happy with the lunch provided and the materials the school provides. Praying that God bless your work and that for Him.

We have 15 students and all are attending and well participating in all the activities of the school. We had The Preacher and His Work, Homiletics and The New Testament Survey taught beginning from January. Daniel and Thomas Gyabaa were the instructors. 

Our impending campaign for March was cancelled due to the restrictions of people and we plan to have it when all the panicking are over. However, we had 4 baptisms from the reports from the students in their works as leaders and preachers in their congregations.

We are still waiting for the Course Materials from you (we made that request in our last report) as that will help and guard us in our lesson preparations. 

Thanks, continue to pray with us as we do for you.
