Greetings from Arizona,

“And he said to them, ‘The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest’.” – Luke 10:2

As a part of fulfilling the Indian Bible College (IBC) mission, every spring there’s a week set aside known as the Ministry Immersion Trip in order for the students to engage with hands on ministry opportunities.

Mission Statement: Indian Bible College exists to disciple and educate Indigenous Native Christians for lifetimes of biblical ministry and spiritual leadership to their people and the world.

Ministry Immersion Trip

At the conclusion of the second term of the semester, the student body headed south to the greater Phoenix area to serve in multiple capacities both on the reservations and elsewhere.

They served and ministered through a variety of experiences to children, youth and churches by utilizing and implementing what they’ve been learning here at IBC, while functioning as a community on mission.

Please pray for the students to receive God’s protection as they step out in faith to pursue His call on their lives and continue to develop the discipleship, life transformation and character skills necessary to be an effective laborer for Christ both now and in the future.

Recruitment and Enrollment

This spring there has been a strong commitment by the Admissions department to share IBC’s story and opportunity with potential students from all over the U.S.

Two of our students (photo right) have recently been a part of visiting High Schools in New Mexico and Arizona seeking more Native men and women to answer God’s call to be discipled and trained for ministry and service to their own people.

We continue to see tremendous obstacles to growing our enrollment and filing our campus. Please consider helping through devoted prayer for this matter. Thank you!

Life Coaching

I am a life coach for two freshman ladies this spring semester, Sarah and Jianna. They seem to be eager to grow and develop in the areas of time management, academics, work, finances and ministry. Would you please pray with me that they are able to accomplish their semester goals over the next 5 weeks, draw closer to Jesus, and understand more deeply their identity in Christ and His call on their lives.

Last Term

At IBC we have three 5-week terms each semester. It’s hard to believe the last term of the semester and school year is upon us. Please pray that the students can stay disciplined and focused in their classes, ministry responsibilities and spiritual formation while finishing strong and bringing God glory.

Thank you for your invaluable prayers!!!
Many blessings to you,
