S.E.N.T. MISSIONS TRIP
     Once again, it is our privilege to introduce the Student Evangelism to the Nations Team (S.E.N.T.) for 2006. The S.E.N.T. missions program is operated under the direction of one of our graduates, Dr. Charles Pahlman of Mentor, OH.
 
Nine FGBI students will be traveling to the Philippine Islands this summer! They will be departing July 26th and returning August 8th.

     The purpose of S.E.N.T. is to provide students with the opportunity to experience life on the mission field as short term missionaries.
    During this two week period they will be busy ministering with Bro. & Sis. Petit at our

  Philippine Bible Institute, preaching in outdoor crusades, doing children’s ministry in the   local schools, as well as visiting local hospitals and the provincial jail. What a tremendous opportunity this will be for these ministers in the making to experience world missions firsthand!
     Students going on the trip must raise at least $2,500.00 to cover travel expenses as well as the needs of those being ministered to upon the foreign field. The airfare for two of these nine students (James Burgess and Mercy Shultz) has been provided as part of a grant from The Fasset St. Church of Toledo, OH and Heart For Kids Ministries run by Rev. Clayton Massey of McKees Rocks, PA.
     Let me take a few lines to acquaint you with these prospective short term missionaries. Perhaps your church will find a way to invite one
 of these individuals to present their burden and vision for this trip as they endeavor to raise the needed funds. Contact information and references are listed at the close of this article.
     Our Academic Dean, Sis. Claire Beam, will also assist in the oversight of this trip. God is continually opening new doors of ministry for this dedicated laborer.
     We trust that you will keep these students in your prayers as they prepare for this life changing trip to the Philippine Islands. What greater joy is there than seeing young people committing their time and resources to the work of the Lord? Sending them a note of encouragement or even inviting one of them to your church would go a long way to support them in their walk of faith and obedience to the Great Commission.
