Happy New Year!

We would like to wish you a very happy New Year!  It is hard to believe it is 2012!  I remember when the year 2000 came that it was just unbelievable. I thought for sure the Lord would come back before now! :)  But, here we are beginning 2012.

There have been so many changes for the Caribbean School of Theology in 2011.  We started the year with a staff of six and ending it with a staff of 14!  That just gives you an idea of how much we are growing.  It is exciting and challenging all at the same time.  When God opened the door for us at CST in 2008 we had no idea what was ahead.  The countries we serve are so grateful for the teaching and leadership of CST.  Without us they would not be able to continue their Biblical education or have the opportunity for special classes, such as Prison Ministries, Women in the Bible, or Teaching Techniques.

As 2011 ends, David and I would like to thanks all the churches and individuals who have supported us through their prayers and offerings.  We understand that in this economy it is  not easy.  We do not take your sacrificial giving lightly.  We also know that God has put us where we are for such a time as this.  The Lord did not come back by 2000, but He may come in 2012!  We plan to continue pressing on and doing what we feel we were born for… to connect, serve, and train…until our Lord does come!
