Update on Founder Dr. Russell K. Pier by President Dr. Jeffrey A. Bell

Dear Friends,

Dr. Pier's daughter, Dorene, called me last night with an up-date on her father.  He has improved enough to be moved to a rehabilitation unit for three weeks.  At that time he will enter Grace Manor Suites, an assisted living home, in Lakeland, Florida. This will become a permanent home for him and his wife, Joan.   This residence is administrated by Christians and is only two minutes away from where Dorene lives. Dr. Pier seems very content with the arrangements that are being made. In order to accomplish all of this, Dr. Pier needs approximately $1200 a month added to his finances.   We (Dr. Pier, Dorene, FST) are so grateful for all of those who have made donations and pledges to help him.  We still need more. If you can help please go to www.faithschool.org/donate and select the 'Retirement Fund' project. Due to the major snow storm coming our way, tomorrow, we felt it necessary to dismiss our students for February break today. We will make up the classes when they return.     Blessings, (Dr.) Jeffrey A. Bell President

Dr. Pier Needs You! by President Dr. Jeffrey A. Bell

Dear Friends,

As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith. Galatians 6:10 Dr. Russell K. Pier is the founder of Faith School of Theology. He was president of the school for 47 years and taught for 50 years. He and his wife, Joan, presently live in Groveland, Florida. This past week he was hospitalized with an intestinal obstruction. When he leaves the hospital, it will be necessary for him and his wife to move into an assisted living complex in Lakeland, Florida. At the present time they are short on finances to do so. They need approximately $1200.00 per month added to their income to do this. We thought if we could get 120 people to pledge $10 a month, we could help them.  This event has opened our eyes to the establishment of a retirement fund for our staff and faculty at Faith School of Theology. However, at this time it has not been set up, therefore your donation will not be tax deductible until we have arranged for this fund. The alumni of Faith School of Theology have been touched by this man of God. Can you do something on a monthly basis to touch his life, in the next few days? If you can, go to wwwfaithschool.org/donate and select the Retirement Fund project.  Blessings, (Dr.) Jeffrey A. Bell President   pictured: Dr. Russell & Joan Pier
