Orientation Week in Full Swing

First year women confer with senior student on library verandah


First year men check the notice board and get to know each other

It's another exciting time of the Bible college year. The 30 students who have been invited to be a part of the incoming class are here for orientation. The registrar is figuring out who has arrived and which have their school fees in hand. Senior students and deans of students are showing the new ones around. Faculty members have been leading them in devotions from the book of 1 John. Tonight faculty members are hosting small groups of new students and their families for games and dessert.

You may have noticed from the pictures that the men and women don't mix. As time goes on there will be brother-sister relationships growing. It is culturally appropriate for things between the sexes to stay at that level.

Jeff led devotions on 1 John 5 this morning. He's interviewed five of the incoming students to get an idea if they're finding their way around. Tonight two couples and their six children will come to our house.

A half-dozen of the new students haven't yet appeared or do not have fees for various reasons. Please pray God will make it clear through His provision which He wants to be ready to start classes on Monday.
