The Bridge: September 2

It is hard to believe that a new school year is upon us. The team here is excited to welcome new and returning students to Word of Life Bible Institute for 2022–2023. Please be praying for your student and our whole student body that this year will be a time of tremendous growth in their lives. 

Our resident assistants (RAs) and Student Experience Program leaders (SEPs) arrive today! They will be in training all week with our deans and resident directors (RDs). Below is the link to view our welcome packet, which includes the schedules for today’s registration along with next week’s registration.

As you are aware, our students get the opportunity to be counselors of either campers or camp crew during our summer camp season. Below are the numbers from our New York camps this past summer. We are so thankful for all the lives that were changed, and we are grateful for how the Lord used your students and worked in their lives as well.
