Seminar At The Bible School

On the weekend of April 17-20th we were honored to have Dr. Al Purvis VABC Thailand and Dr. Ron Denotter from St. Albert, Alberta Canada come and minister to the students and some local Pastors. They spoke on Leadership and humility and being a model to those around you. The students and Pastors were blessed to have Pastors with this type of experience come and speak into their lives and we as a family were certainly grateful for their fatherly input into our lives. The best way to describe this time of input is found in I Thessalonians 1:8 where it says, "...we were well pleased to impart to you not only the gospel of God, but also our own lives, because you had become dear to us." We appreciate you much! .

Friends From Canada

In early April we had the opportunity to host our good friends from Canada, Peter and Colleen Jackson. What a great time for us and the students. Peter and Colleen ministered to the students on the ministry of the Holy Spirit. God has used this couple powerfully in the market place ministry and we are so thankful that they would come and minister to our students. God moved powerfully on the lives of the students through this couple and students loved this couple! We certainly appreciated their giving hearts and some of the advice that they gave to our family. Peter and Colleen left an impact on the lives of the students and on our lives! Thank you so much! If there are any other couples that would like to come and visit please feel free to contact us.

Creating Disciples ...A Wonderful Opportunity

We are now almost finished with our first three months of training. What a great experience for our family. We have ten students and they have been very responsive to the things we have been teaching them. We have been instructed by the Apostle Paul in II Timothy 2:2 to "commit these (spiritual realities) to faithful men who will be able to teach others." The Gospel which is the good news is to be given away. There is no greater calling than to preach the Gospel and raise up disciples and we are grateful for the opportunity. Along with teaching the Bible the students have practical ministry (cleaning and taking care of our large yard and planting gardens). We also teach them music and English every afternoon. Our family has learned that in doing this, it takes time, energy, and money. I am so grateful to those who have been helping us in this endeavor as it would not be possible without our supporters in finances and prayer.
