Dear Friends,
We are excited to present this year’s Biblical Life Ministries Christmas Project: “Training and Equipping 2012”! This is a fantastic opportunity for you to be involved in sharing the Good News this Christmas- and every Christmas- by providing solid Biblical training for national pastors who are reaching the lost in their communities in fantastic ways.
In a recent survey of the graduates from one ‘school’, we discovered that 18 of those pastors have planted 51 new churches, and all their churches have grown by 50-150% in faithful, baptized members!
Here’s a couple of examples of what the pastor’s are saying about Bible School in a Briefcase:
Pastor Shadrack Maunda, Deliverance Church in Kibwezi....”The class helped me so much in the church and in my ministry such that I could know how to communicate with the people and how I could run the church in God’s will.”
“Since I graduated from BSIB until now I have seen a lot of improvement in the church...even means to reach unreached has been a great challenge. That church has grown in rate that I could not imagine...May God bless you.” Pastor Stellamaris, Soul Winners Chapel in Kiunduani.
We are looking to 2012 with great anticipation, and BSIB will continue to train pastors in the one- year program as we have always done. Training national pastors is the most effective way to reach the lost, and our program is doing just that!
God willing, and with your help, there are 2 things that we want to add in 2012: We are believing God to be able to launch the 2nd year program for BSIB graduates—a Certificate in Biblical Studies. And we are planning our first Annual BSIB Alumni Conference for June, 2012! Our dream is to gather all of the graduates from all of the ‘schools’ for 3 days of worship, fellowship, and of course, additional training! We’ll be telling you more about these events in the next few months.
Here’s where you can get involved. “Training and Equipping 2012” is a scholarship project. You can ‘purchase’ as big or as little a scholarship as you are led or able- from $100 upwards. There are those who could give a $500 scholarship, or $2500. This Christmas, we are asking you to stretch your faith with us! The entire BLM team is believing for $25,000 in scholarships to come in through this project!! Step out in faith with us!
When giving to this project, please note “Training & Equipping 2012” on your gift. We are thankful to God for His faithfulness to these pastors and the Bible School in a Briefcase program. To each of you who have invested in this program, we and all the graduates say....thank you! Many Blessings & Merry Christmas,
R. Kelly Johnson, President Biblical Life Ministries
