Bible School Application (webmaster)

---EDIT: go to later posts to see, I HAVE been accepted to the Calvary Chapel Bible College in Murietta, California. And will begin classes feb 1st/2005---As I have alluded to in the PRAYER: Prayer Sheet for SI Webmaster post I am currently applying to go to CCBC (Calvary Chapel Bible College) in Murrieta, California. I would appreciate your prayers and help in this process.I have felt through the last 3-4 months there has been a change the Lord has been wroughting in my heart preparing me for the next step in what I should be doing. In the last month it has become much more clearer and my being made aware of the Calvary Chapel movement www.calvarychapel.com has been something God has lead me to directly. Through much prayer and seeking God I feel that its Gods will for me to be going to this bible school which is un-accredited and is a 2 years generalized program.I will be applying and attending the school on campus as an internation student because I live in Canada. That adds abit of complexity to alot of things but I feel its in the Lords timing and plan. The running of SermonIndex will be changing also due to this going to bible college and I will need help from brothers and sisters at SI that have a vested interest in this ministry and its reach into the world.I am applying this week and almost have all things together, and there is a 2 week wait for the approval process. Part of that is the proof of funds to pay for one entire year with surplus funds to be granted a M-student visa by the United States Government. I am trusting the Lord for the funds of the second year and for many other things necessary for the 2 years of living in California.Here are some specific needs:Specific Needs for the Bible School.-Need of a vechile (car or van) to be used for driving in Calforina.-Need of more funding for the second year of bible school, I will be living on campus for both semesters.-There also is a need of getting a laptop computer for school work and updating of sermonindex.-I will not be able to work while in California so dependancy on donations and also sponsors on sermonindex will be much more important and vital. Pray that I can get in the next 3 months I can raise monies through contract work and other means.---I will keep everyone updated please feel free to ask any questions there are many things I am leaving out. thanks for your interest!

Brother, I really feel that you are going to have a great time at bible college! Enjoy it and be sure not to take it forgranted. Study, study, study hard!

wowee, this will be an adventure for you! What an awsome opportunity. Don't worry (not that you would), if it's the Lord's will then every thing will be taken care of.Hi Chanin, I really feel it is Gods will for me to go and yes I know He will supply all my needs thank you so much for that encouragment. Please print off a prayer sheet for me for the next 2 years: PRAYER: Prayer Sheet for SI Webmaster. I love you all so much at SI and how you have been a blessing in my life, thank you for your support and prayers.

(Also have been looking into some more geek training...)nice! yes there will be a need for alot more participation from moderators to keep the forums on the straight and narrow. Also more attentive answering questions to people who are on the site. Yea and just to let people know Mike is like the Robin side-kick so you can always bug him and ask him stuff.These are the practical 'rubber meet's the road' items. My hope is that those of us who have been given so much might seriously consider what we could give back in tangible support.If God does put it in your heart that would be awesome, I am relying on God to help supply my tangible needs for this next 2 years. I have gotten a few contract jobs already for this next 3 months before I have to go down but it will not near be enough.

I know these season of focusing solely on the Word and your relationship with Jesus is going to be a very fruitful time. He will make a way for you brother.Thanks brother Ed!! yea im really encouraged and already blessed on how the Lord is showing He is with me every step of the way with this move. There are alot of things for me to take care of this next 3 months, I am very excited of this season for my life and the Lord is showing me that during these next 2 years He will make very clear what He wants me to do. I am in His hands! I would encourage people interested in helping me in this move to print off the prayer sheet: PRAYER: Prayer Sheet for SI Webmaster

I am sending the application tommorow in the mail. Please pray when they review everything that it would work out according to God's will. I am very happy and pleased about how so many things have been coming together its really amazing confirmation on a call that I feel God has put in my heart. Thank you for your prayers and encouragements I will keep everyone posted on new things that arise from this. Many details about staying in the USA are really working out, its becoming less of a daunting task to go to school in America and really have a peace about it.

You know that I'm praying faithfully and fervently. God is so good and faithful to lead us when we abide in Him and obey.Thanks yolanda for the prayers, I encourage anyone else who wants to pray for me and this ministry over the next two years to download the prayer sheet here: PRAYER: Prayer Sheet for SI Webmaster. Things are really coming together! I am looking forward to fellowshipping with you again and also brother Josh, Craig and all the other wonderful brothers in the escondido fellowship.

I would ask you continue to pray Gods will be done. They have recieved the application and I have to send them an financial form now from my bank. If you haven't done so feel free to print off the Prayer sheet that you can use to pray for this application process and if I get accepted myself being in California for the next 2 years. God is really putting on my heart alot of things to get done and tie up loose ends before I go. Please pray for all these above things. I am so excited I thank you for all your support and prayers. Please feel free to ask any question here in public or private message me.

Thank you for all the prayers and support emails sent. I HAVE been accepted to the Bible College so Gods leading is becoming more of an reality now. I am very excited at what God will be doing in and through my life in these next 2 years in california. Praise God for a his leading and will, I know that Gods direction in my life will be sustained by His grace! God is going to do a work and I am already in awe of it.The Semester for the School will be starting February 1st / 2005. I will probably be goind down early to california to visit some brothers and sisters in the Lord. I appreciate your prayers during this time for me adjusting to this new routine, it WILL be challanging to get into school work and be in that atmosphere but I know it will strech and bless me to be more of a man of God.Also I appreciate continued prayers for this ministry because I will not be able to spend as much time taking care of the site and all the other facets of ministry involved with it. NOTE: I will still be updating and monitoring the site of a surety and I know the bible school experience will help me be more faithful and better steward of this ministry intrusted to me by the Lord.There are quite a few loose ends I have to tie up in Toronto, Canada before I leave also. I appreciate prayers for wisdom to ensure I leave with everything prepared as it should be.WOW im excited. 8-) 8-)
