My Travels in Africa- A Letter from President Dr. Jeffrey A. Bell

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.

Blessings,

(Dr.) Jeffrey A. Bell
President

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,

(Dr.) Jeffrey A. Bell

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
President

Summer Vacation- A Letter from President Dr. Jeffrey A. Bell

Dear Friends,

My wife, Faith, and I will return to Charleston on Friday, August 10th. We believe we have had a successful trip, as we have made some new contacts for the school. We also incorporated a few days of vacation along the way. It was a pleasure to see several of our former students in the different churches. We were especially pleased to see a few of the alumni in the Tuesday, August 7, service in Brunswick, Maryland. They are pictured here.

We look forward with anticipation to seeing the staff who have been working so diligently on the campus this summer.  

Blessings,

(Dr.) Jeffrey A. Bell
President

Facelift - Check out the cafeteria! - A letter from the President Dr. Jeffery A. Bell

Dear Friends,
   
In the summer time our staff wear many hats. Last summer during the Nehemiah Project we were able to lay a new tile floor in our dining room. This year we have painted the walls. They are asian pear with a contrasting wall of cheris. We have learned that bright colors appeal to students. Special thanks to Rev. Alexis Topolski (Faith School Bookkeeper), Rev. Dennis J. Michaud (Director of Public Relations) and Mrs. Amanda Kneeland (Administrative Assistant to Dr. Bell) for a job well done.

Blessings,

(Dr.) Jeffrey A. Bell
President
