An update from Trinidad

TRINIDAD SCHOOL OF PREACHING

TSOP BUS

May God bless you plenty plenty for twenty twenty!!! God continues to bless TSOP and as such we want to share those with all of you! Firstly, the new “Betsy” ( how Parker Henderson called the bus years ago) is on the road! Brother Robin Achaibar worked day and night to make it possible. Her maiden voyage with all the students will be February 7th 2020 when TSOP  will visit and participate in an evening of songs at Morvant congregation. Pray for a safe journey.

Secondly, as a result of having the bus, we will plan to visit several congregations. Please do not mind if we just turn up but we will try to call first so that arrangements could be made to partake in the Lord’s Supper. We want to sing, preach,  teach, read, be ushers or just be there to encourage the brotherhood and to share the joy we have found in the Lord. Do not hesitate to contact the office if you would like to invite us over.

VISITING STUDENT PREACHERS

Thirdly, we have been blessed with a group of awesome students who would like to visit and teach or preach during the year. The practice will allow them to experience the preparation and delivery of lessons they did in class. They are all willing and able so please open your doors for this opportunity. All we ask is that you help them with transport to and from your building and an honorarium. Please contact the office for arrangements.

BARBADOS STUDENTS VISIT

Our Barbados visitors Yonnick  August and Justin Parsons have returned home safely and we anticipate great things from them as they serve there!! These young men were allowed to attend classes here while they are doing the online program. We are excited about the possibilities for the church in Barbados

LIBRARY NEEDED

Fourthly, due to our increased efforts to upgrade the teaching staff with the aid of Bear Valley Bible Institute,  if you have books and you are willing to donate to our library or you know of someone willing to donate books, please consider us. While we understand and accept the web sites that are available, we want to open our library to congregations and those who do not have access to internet. This blessing has already started as we received donations from brothers abroad and we are preparing to set our library in order.

TEACHERS WORKSHOP

Our school continues to play its part in congregational development and as such we invite congregations to utilize the faculty and students in whatever way possible to help build up the cause for Christ. On this note alongside teachers in San Fernando we hosted a Teachers workshop designed to help teachers prepare better lesson plans and assessment strategies for use in the children’s Bible classes. Sisters Denise Dimsoy and Karen Achaibar did tremendous jobs delivering. Both are teachers  and we extend a hearty thank you to both.

CONGREGATIONAL INVOLVEMENT

The San Fernando congregation has launched training towards eldership. Both the Director and Trovel Emmanuel are assisting in teaching. We commend the efforts of this congregation towards eldership. Pray for them that this goal be reached soon.
