Drawing closer! (from May 2013)

29 1st year students

We are half-way through another term here at IBP.  It has been a blessing to teach the Christian Family class to the twenty-nine students in first year.  They are a special group indeed.  

During the first week of May we were honored to have as our guest speaker for spiritual emphasis, veteran, semi-retired missionary, Ralph Hiatt. Our students were challenged and encouraged to learn the voice of their Shepherd, Jesus, to die to self, and to live according to His will.  What an anointed time we all experienced being taught by this humble man of God and then being led to the feet of Jesus.  Thank you, Ralph, for coming and sharing at IBP!  And thank you, Jesus, for meeting us here and speaking to us.

Some of the wonderful people whom God has put together to help us run the Patagonian Bible Institute are pictured here. It has been a pleasure leading them as Interim Directors for this past year while the Jacobsons have been on stateside assignment.
