Hands-On Ministry - A letter from President Dr. Jeffrey A. Bell

Dear Friends,
We are so thankful for churches that give our students opportunity to do hands-on ministry. They are helping us to mentor students for their future. Following are some students ministering at different churches.

Mr. Tim Heffler of Brunswick, Maryland, is the youth pastor at Mars Hill Full Gospel Church. He did an internship this past summer with Rev. Wesley Faloon, and now travels up each weekend to work with the youth.   

Mr. Jonathan Randall is the worship leader at Patten Pentecostal Church, working under his father, Rev. Frank Randall. He travels every weekend to Patten. Jon also leads worship in a Bangor Church during the week when he is not too busy with studies. 

Three students go to minister at Bradley Baptist Church each Sunday morning. Miss Kate Hinkley of Hollis, New Hampshire, helps the church with sound and media ministry, Mr. Robert Daniel of Bangor, Maine, plays the bass guitar, and Mr. Brent Benzanson of Lockeport, NS, Canada plays the drums. 

Both students and churches are blessed in these endeavors.

Alumni on Crusades by President Dr. Jeffrey A. Bell

Dear Freinds,
I had a great time on the Fall Crusade, traveling with the Faith Trio. Our travels took us to - Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, West Virginia, Maryland, and New York. We thank the Lord for keeping us safe over the many miles. We also thank Him for the lives that were touched through the Word and song. 

Whenever I am out traveling, I look forward to having Faith alumni attend our services. I saw several on this trip. Mrs. Kimberly (Stotler) Smith graduated in 1981.  She drove 45 minutes to attend one of our services. She had heard that I had two alumni kids with me.  She had been roommates with both of their mothers. Ashley Randall of Patten, Maine, is the daughter of Rev. Frank (91) and Tammy (Deroiser) (89) Randall. Paige Dumond of Gulf Shores, Alabama, is the daughter of Rev. Bruce (92M) and Heather (Yeaton) (91M) Dumond. The other member of the trio is Andrew McLaughlin of Perham, Maine.
