The Bridge: September 30

Dear Parents and Loved Ones, 

As the month of September is coming to a close, students are settling into their service assignments and ministry teams here on campus. Throughout the year, these students will have the opportunity to show the love of Jesus by serving in a variety of capacities both on and off WOLBI campus. It is my prayer that God will use this season to give students a passion for sharing the hope of the gospel wherever life takes them. 

Intro to Ministries 

Our ministries team represents a wide range of staff in various roles around campus. Even though we won’t be able to introduce every person here, all of them are crucial to making our ministry teams, service assignments, campus events, and camps run smoothly. Below, we’ve included some of the main people your student will need to connect with during the year.
