Pray for Bible School Students

The school year started off with a real bang, over 55 first year students as well as returning students made about 150 students, and might be one of our highest enrollments since 1982. We were not only pleased with the quantity, but the quality of students as well. They all seem hungry for God and His Word. It is always a joy to teach those who searching for greater understanding.



Yet, as we closed out the first semester of the school year, we saw that there was trouble a brewing. Almost half of our student body were not able to finish paying their school bill. I believe this is the first time we have had so many who could not pay. It tells the story how difficult things are here in Haiti. You must know that in Haiti there are no financial aid programs or student loans available. Everyone has to pay cash for their schooling. I guess if it was this way in the States, most of those who are presently in college would not be there. Thankfully, it is not quite as expensive here in Haiti.


We do not know if these 60 plus students will be returning in January if God doesn't intervene on their behalf. As you can see we need a miracle. Pray with us that God delivers us from this difficult situation.
