BEAR VALLEY BIBLE INSTITUTE, TAMALE - GHANA
FEBRUARY REPORT 2021
The Lord has gracefully taken us through the month of February, 2021 in a very successful manner. We owe God all appreciations. We agree with Paul the apostle indeed that “for in Him we live and move and have our very being ….” As custom demands, we write to update all concerned persons of the happenings in the school for the month of February.
STUDENTS
After our much busy activities of the month of January, the students went on a three weeks break from the 8th of February to the 28th of the same, 2021. The break was necessary for them to go and visit their families, congregations and to also put their personal things in order. All of them have reported back, as we have returned to school to continue with studies. Bibles and commentaries on the Life of Christ 1&2 have been given to them. In addition, we have had two new students who came for an interview and have qualified and have joined their colleagues as lectures are ongoing.
MEETING WITH DIRECTOR
On the 9th of February, 2021, our Director (Daniel Adjei Mensah), held a brief meeting with the regular staff, especially those of us working as instructors and doing administrative work. He appreciated our efforts during the activities of January. He also called for us to work as a team in helping to lift the school to higher esteem. We all saw the need for us to make good use of the facilities at our disposal to help the church in Northern Ghana. In attendance was Albert, James and Director Adjei.
VISITATIONS AND CAMPAIGN
We continue to strengthen our visitations and campaign for students. We believe through this channel, we will connect and create a strong bond between the school and preachers and the churches in Northern Ghana, especially congregations that our past graduates are working with. We intend to make a great impact with the tool of visitation and to send the school to the doorstep of all congregations as much as their doors will be opened to us across the breath and length of Northern Ghana.
Yes, now is the time for us to do that, with the opportunity we have through the sacrificial help of you our brethren from the United States and Bear Valley. Brother James has been to the Upper East Region twice this month alone, making visits to Bawku and Pusiga areas on the 1st to 7th and that of Sumbrongu and its environs on the 24th to the 27th February, 2021. These trips by brother James have contributed to four souls being baptized into the church at Pusiga and Zebila respectively. Brother Albert also made a journey to Naakpa for a marriage event on the 6th and 7th of February, 2021.
CHURCH PROJECT
The church project is almost completed to roofing level. As it is a great blessing to us and we rejoice over it, we believe the building as it is shaping up is also preaching to us by calling for souls to come and worship in it. We are discussing how we can do effective evangelism to convert souls into the building, so that the resources that have been directed to it will not be a wasted one.
In all things, we continue to light and great growth is ahead of us in the coming days.
All praises to God,
Sent for the Director
Daniel Adjei Mensah
