Greetings from Arizona,
The past 2 months have flown by. Thankfully, we have had much to celebrate by experiencing a blessed start to the 24-25 school year.
Photo above: introducing our 4 new full-time students (l to r) Carter, Andrew, AJ and Mildred; and 4 re-admitted full time students (r to l) Micah, Roman, Kyle and Kai.
It’s been exciting to have the new students join us to begin their journey at Indian Bible College (IBC), as well as those returning to finish their degrees (after several were gone from campus for 4 or more years).
Please pray for the students to have a rewarding year through all that they are learning in class, as well as the practical hands-on ministry through relationships and growing spiritually in community and individually.
Part-time students & special chapel
Two of our classes this fall were available for part-time students to join. There are 20 part-time students all together from 5 different states, 14 of whom join the classes on line and 6 are attending in person.
Recently we had a special chapel designated for the part-time students where they could join us in person or through Zoom. It was such a blessing to have 17 of them participate during the chapel in some capacity allowing the on campus full time students and staff to get to know them a bit more and to pray for them. The sense of community and development of unity was rich and a lot of fun!
Please pray for the part-time students that the Lord would bless their lives through what they are learning and that even some may be called to join as a full-time student in the future.
Alumni
Regularly our Alumni Director shares with our staff prayer requests from the IBC alumni. Often, they are reaching out for wisdom and opportunity through their ministries, healing and times of reconciliation for family and relationships, provision in areas of need, etc.
Please pray for the IBC alumni that God would meet their every need while shining brightly through their lives for God’s Kingdom purposes.
Personal
In late September, my siblings and I celebrated our Dad’s 90th Birthday with everyone gathering together in Arizona and my niece baking his 90th Birthday cake. Yum! Prayers for Dad to continue settling in well to life in the memory care facility.
In mid-October I was blessed to join with family for my nephew’s wedding in Wisconsin. It was a lovely occasion and lots of fun to spend a few days together. Many blessings to Paul and Margot and their new lives together!
Thank you for your prayers!
God bless you,
