BEAR VALLEY BIBLE INSTITUTE, TAMALE - GHANA
APRIL 2021 REPORT
The operating report for the month of April 2021 was very impactful by all standards. In the month of April, we were engaged in many activities. Many of these activities gave us the confidence of great advancement for the Tamale campus of Bear Valley Bible Institute.
BROTHER STEVEN
It’s always a joyful experience to have Brother Steven in our midst. Once again this year, we had the privilege of having him in Tamale in the month of April to strengthen, educate and motivate us to fight for the Kingdom of God. His presence saw us have a series of discussions and meetings concerning the growth of the school and the Churches in Northern Ghana. He educated us on how to use the syllabus that has been developed for all Bear Valley Schools. We also had a brief look at the challenges with these syllabuses.
Mechanization of the well, Making farms to support the feeding of the students were also deliberated. The way forward of the continuation of the building project for the Kpalsi South Church wasn’t ignored. His coming to us was very necessary as it has always been. May the Lord continue to give him long life, good health and prosperity in all things.
LECTURESHIP
Brother James Legend taught the Life of Christ one in the first week of April as the students prepare to go on break to have some rest and take care of their family and congregational activities.
MECHANIZATION OF THE WELL
Mechanization work for the well we had by the grace of God and the help of our brethren from Healing Hands International started in the month of April and we are hopeful to complete everything in the month of May God’s willing. We hope to acknowledge the efforts of all Brethren who are helping us in Bear Valley Tamale to have a much conducive environment to progress the course of Christ. God bless you all.
ALL NIGHT PREAYER MEETINGS
The director (Daniel Adjei Mensah), has seen the need for us to strengthen the element of prayer for the school, Churches of Christ and other relevant issues. He decided we host one prayer night every month in the school that will involve congregations within and around Tamale who are interested in participating. The maiden one took place in the month of April. It was an excellent experience.
KPALSI SOUTH CHURCH OF CHRIST
We are determined to work to increase the numerical growth of the local congregation of the Kpalsi South church. As a result of that, we are not giving up in preaching the Gospel to all who are ready to hear the word. As difficult as it is, our efforts are bearing fruits gradually. One soul was added to the church on the 25th of April, 2021. May His name be praised forever; amen.
PERSONAALITY PROFILE ON LAAR PAUL
Laar Paul is our focus for this month. He was born in the year 1993 (28 years) at Kpinkpanyoung in the Upper East Region. Kpinkpanyoung is just a few kilometers away from Togo. He was born to Mrs. Laar Asibe and Mr. Laar Kojo, both residents of Kpinkpanyooung. Both parents were pagans. He was baptized into the church on the 25th of August, 2005. His last circular education was Bawku Technical Institute, which lasted between the periods of 2015 to 2018. The Kpinkpanyoung congregation was planted in 2003, by brethren from a nearby congregation in a village called Garu. Paul grew to see the need for a preacher to help the congregation as they were struggling to govern the church for the lack of leadership. He chose the path of Christ in preaching the gospel by getting enrolled into the Bear Valley Bible Institute, Tamale, in the year 2019. He graduated successfully with a Diploma certificate in the year 2021. He has managed to convert his mother into the church, hoping the Lord will do the same to his father too.
Brother Laar Paul is married to Janet Laar with two children. They currently live at Kpinkpanyoung where he preaches for the local congregation which has a membership of over 200. Paul is one of the dedicated young preachers in the Upper East Region.
We praise God for His kindness and mercy towards us.
Thank you,
Bear Valley, Tamale.
