Update from ABTS

Dear friends,

 Greetings from the Arab Baptist Theological Seminary.

 With the end of this academic year, we thank our Lord for His unfailing love that strengthens us, and allows us to remain steadfast in pursuing our mission to serve the Church in the Arab world. We also thank our partners and friends for standing by us as we strive to serve the Arab church by equipping effective leaders for ministry.

 In the enclosed June issue of the ABTS newsletter, you will read about challenges of theological education in the Middle East as perceived by 3 Lebanese faculty, about our students’ ministry among Syrian refugee children, and about Prof. Perry Shaw’s new book, ‘Transforming Theological Education’.

 On Sunday June 22, we will hold our graduation ceremony during which we will release 17 students to serve God across the Arab world. Join us in prayer for God to protect and strengthen them, because “the harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few.”

 

With every blessing,

 Wissam al-Saliby
