Missions Seminar- A Letter From President Jeffrey A.Bell

Dear Friends,


Our Missions Seminar will be held on Friday, September 28. This all day and evening event is built into our academic calendar. Our main speaker will be Rev. Brad Whipple. Speaker for the workshops will be Rev. Seth Aumock. If you are in the area, please feel free to attend.

Faith School endeavors to keep our costs low for the student. When a student graduates he/she will not be in great debt, and will be able to go to their field of ministry as quickly as possible.

Pictured are four of our alumni who are preaching and teaching at the Faith Theological and Agricultural school in Ghana. This team works under the direction of Dr. Edith Coombes and her husband, Michael. Gordon and Kelly Blakeney graduated in May 2012, Alyse DeMars in 2011. Anette McClellan had previous missionary experience and attended classes at Faith for a year and a half. Had they had a large debt to pay, after school, they would not be on the mission field at this time.

Blessings,

(Dr.) Jeffrey A. Bell

Alumni in Africa- A Letter from President Dr. Jeffrey A. Bell

Dear Friends,

We are so happy that our alumni are ministering all over the world. It was my great pleasure to visit an affiliate school, Overcomers School of Theology in Badagry, Nigeria. This school is administrated by some of our alumni who graduated from the former Christ Ambassadors Faith School of Theology of Nigeria. They use the same curriculum that CAFST used. Rev. Julius Gusanu is the President. In this photo I presented a study Bible to President Gusanu.


Blessings,

Dear Friends,

I am presently in Sogakope, Ghana, Africa. We had a great time in our opening services. We are thankful for the students He has given us to train. On Thursday, September 13, I will leave for Nigeria where I will visit Overcomers School of Theology. This school is operated by some of the graduates of the former Christ Ambassadors Faith School of Theology. It will be a great joy to meet with some of our alumni while I am there.

I will arrive back in Charleston on Wednesday, September 19. Please continue to keep me in your prayers.

Headed to Ghana!- A Letter from President Dr. Jeffrey A. Bell

Dear Friends,

We have had a wonderful start to the school year in Charleston. God has blessed us with some wonderful students. Pictured is my Homiletics I class saying good-bye to me as I prepared to leave on September 4th for the opening of the Faith Theological and Agricultural School in Sogakope, Ghana. Also pictured are the board members of Ghana. They came to visit me when I arrived. I will also travel to Badagry, Nigeria, to visit an affiliate school - Overcomers School of Theology. I will return to Maine on September 18th. I covet your prayers for God's anointing and protection while I am away.

Blessings,

A New Year has Begun!- A Letter from President Dr. Jeffrey A. Bell

Dear Friends,

"It is the Holy Spirit that causes the knowledge to work." Dr. Gary Heffler of Brunswick, Maryland, was this semester's opening convention speaker. His messages on the work of the Holy Spirit were a great blessing to students and staff.   Dr. Heffler attended Faith for two years (1974 - 1976). His son, Timothy, is now a junior at Faith.

On Monday, August 20th, we welcomed the freshmen as they arrived on campus - ready to start their journey on the way to ministry. Thursday, the 23rd brought our juniors and seniors back to us. Several of them had been involved in ministry internships, some had worked secular jobs, and were ready for a spiritual refreshing. Classes started on Monday, the 27th. 

The students will be involved in many activities this year - classes, chapels, prayer groups, mentor groups, outside ministry, social times, and SWAP jobs. The knowledge that they receive in these different areas will be made effective by the Holy Spirit. Would you commit to pray for them, that they will keep them strong in their walk with God?

Blessings,

(Dr.) Jeffrey A. Bell
