Dear Fellow Alumni,
Howdeeeeee?? Yep, I said "Howdeeeeee." Life is
wonderful when we spend it living for the Lord.I trust this newsletter finds you
happy, healthy and holy.
HAPPY - "Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his
help, whose hope is in the LORD his God"
HEALTHY - "Beloved, I wish above all things that thou
mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth."
Holy - "For this is the will of God, even your
sanctification."
Sis. Patty Bellows

"Thank You" to her. She will be giving some information in this letter

We are looking
forward to see you. our fellow alumni at the Alumni Convention. Come to receive
from the Lord and the fellowship, the strength to go on in God's will. We need
all the help we can to endure to the end. It is not how we start, but how we
finish this race. There are all kinds of ways to get sidetracked, but the Word
of God, the Holy Spirit and the fellowship of the saints are essential to keep
us on the straight and narrow. Hebrews tells us to exhort one another daily,
lest we should be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin I believe there will
be help for you at the convention.
Let me encourage us, as those who have been blessed to
receive our education from Free Gospel Bible Institute. Hold on to the faith
that was once delivered to the saints. Hold on to the truth of Holiness, it is
still a necessity as we aproach the coming of the Lord. Hold on to the alter and
the prayer closet. God still answers prayer. Preach the Word for truly you will
both save yourself and them that hear you. No matter where you are at, God still
wants to use you, if you let him. But we must be in God's will.
The Bible school is worth supporting and praying for
and sending your young people to. Pray for the faculty, the students, the board,
and Bro. and Sis. Peretic. Also pray for each other as alumni that we would do
God's will. This is something that I believe in. Gods answers prayer. May the
Lord bless each and every one of you and may we greet one another around the
throne someday.
Bro. Jeff Dissmore
