PIONEERS…..
Paul and Lucinda Bentley: They are incredibly grateful to God to be able to report that Paul has been recovering from the illness that he had earlier this summer and are so glad that they were in the US where he could get proper treatment.
They are eagerly looking forward to returning home to Cochabama, Bolivia by the end of September. Please pray for safe travels and ease any concerns they may have. They thank us very much for our continued support and prayers.
NILE THEOLOGICAL COLLEGE…..The college year has begun and as in the past, there are more students than the college can accommodate. Muca Codi studied two years at Evangelical Theological College in Cairo, Egypt (where the Kennedy’s are professors) and is now teaching at NTC.
