MISSIONS OF THE MONTH
GEREIF BIBLE SCHOOL…..This school is located in Khartoum Sudan. This 3 year course is designed to prepare evangelist and teachers to go into the communities to share the gospel and to start churches. It is also used as the first level before the Nile Theological College. One problem Gereif Bible School is having is keeping good quality teachers employed. They can make a much higher salary in government employment. Our money sent would help offset this.
