Accreditation is finally a reality, and a new scholarship fund is now set up to assist deserving students with the cost of missionary training. Praise the Lord! On May 20th, we celebrated with 90 Bible school graduates (including some from the online program). 30 grew up in other countries where their parents are missionaries. 58% indicate they plan to use their schooling in full-time missions (most with Ethnos360; 7% with other mission organizations).
Growing interest means that enrollment is nearing max capacity (250 in-person students). Previously, interns lived in vacant student housing. The school was
able to buy several fourplexes on the edge of campus, which will provide a long-term housing solution for them. They needed a lot of work, so Ken is working hard this summer to install nine pallets of laminate flooring, among other things!
Earlier in the semester, we took 19 students on a Spring Break trip to a tribal missions exposure campus in Pennsylvania. It is staffed by missionaries with successful church-planting experiences in remote language groups of Brazil and Papua New Guinea. This is a great way for people to get a glimpse of Gospel needs outside their comfort zone!
