EAST Aleph 2015 Started
EAST Aleph for new students started last Friday and runs for two weeks before academic classes start. We are grateful for the bumper number of new students this year coupled with new faculty who has joined us for this new academic year.
Please pray for a most fruitful time for all during the EAST Aleph as new students: attend their Research Writing class, get oriented to their academic program and resource facilities, develop skills of evangelism, live out Spirit-filled walk, and begin relationships with fellow Mentoring Group members. Thanks!
