Friday Night Streaming is Back! by President Dr. Jeffrey A. Bell

Dear Dennis,

Greetings from Faith.

Once again, our Friday evening services will be streamed. This will begin on Friday evening, October 11 at 7:00 PM.  We want to say a very special thanks to alumni member, Blagovest Fartsov (class of 2010) of Pazardhik, Bulgaria, for his help in this project. He has been a great blessing with our computer problems in Africa also. God has given us some very talented students in many fields, over the years, and Blago is one.


Join us live this Friday night as we commission our students to work in the harvest field for ten days. Crusade is October 18 - 28.  Students will travel to churches to be a blessing in all areas of church work. We are believing that lives will be touched, and souls will be brought into the Kingdom of God.


We look forward to you joining us live again on November 1st at 7:00 PM after we return from Crusade.

Click here to go live.


Blessings,

(Dr.) Jeffrey A. Bell

Founder's Day by President Dr. Jeffrey A. Bell

Dear Friends,

Greetings from Faith.

On Friday, October 11, we will celebrate Founder's Day at Faith. Born in 1925, our founder, Dr. Russell K. Pier, will celebrate his 88th birthday on that day.  Faith School of Theology was founded in 1959. We honor him for his service to Faith. Presently residing in Groveland, Florida, with his wife, Joan, he still preaches and teaches. 

We are having a wonderful semester at Faith. The Holy Spirit is moving in our classes and chapels.  Students can be found in the prayer rooms most any time of the day or night. An old song, said that Prayer is the key to Heaven and Faith unlocks the Door. We are seeing doors opened in student's lives and ministries. 

Blessings,

(Dr.) Jeffrey A. Bell

Man with a Van following God's Plan from President Dr. Jeffrey A. Bell

Dear Friends,

Greetings from Faith.

We have often said that students are the reason that Faith School of Theology exists. We are also very thankful for our STAFF. The passion of our staff is to Mentor the Students for Ministry. God has blessed us with a staff that is both willing to pray, and to sacrifice. They work for a minimum wage, and give in so many other ways. May I tell you a true story?

Last winter we took our school van to be inspected. We used the van to pick up groceries and supplies each week. When the inspector looked at it - he said, NO, sorry, it is too rusty to pass inspection. When we could not get it inspected, our buyer, said he would use his own vehicle to do the shopping each week. He did for several months, and we have been praying that God would supply us with a van. This week another staff member came and said, "My wife and I were going to sell our van, but God spoke to our hearts to give it to the school." Thank you, Lord, for answering our prayer. May God bless these staff members for their sacrifices for the kingdom of God.  

Blessings,

(Dr.) Jeffrey A. Bell

They're Here!! by President Dr. Jeffrey A. Bell

Dear Friends,

Greetings from Faith.

We are so excited!  They are here! Our freshmen arrived on Monday, August 20th. They came from as far away as the country of Korea and as near as the town of Charleston. They unpacked and went through an orientation, preparing them for their tenure at Faith. Our sophomores, juniors, and seniors will arrive on Thursday the 29th. 

We will have our first Friday night service on August 30th. We need to announce that we will not be streaming services this year. However, they will be recorded and you can download them to your computer.

Please keep us in your prayers. Our greatest desire at Faith is to see God move among our students and staff in a powerful way this year.  

Blessings,

(Dr.) Jeffrey A. Bell

Eleven, Ten, Nine....From the President Dr. Jeffrey A. Bell

Dear Friends,

Greetings from Faith.

Our staff will arrive on Monday, August 19th. You might hear the following conversations at that time. Two more pages and I will complete that project. Can you help me with this? Oh, we have some furniture to move. We need to finish cleaning the kitchen. We need to take that to the attic.  

Eleven, ten, nine - the countdown is on. Our freshmen will arrive onMonday, August 26th. Upper classmen will come on Thursday the 29th. We are making every moment count as we finish up maintenance jobs, office projects, and cleaning. We want to be ready for the students when they arrive.

Just as we are getting ready in the natural for the students' return, we want to be ready spiritually as well. We have prayed that the Holy Spirit will move in a great way as we minister to the students in the classes, chapels, and in everyday life.  

We believe the countdown is also taking place for Jesus' return. What do you have to finish before He comes?


Blessings,

(Dr.) Jeffrey A. Bell
