*Appreciation and Report of Activities From January to April: Bear Valley Bible Institute Nigeria (BVBI) Ette Study Center*

Dear Management of BVBIN,

I, Ameh Augustine, express heartfelt gratitude to the management and staff of Bear Valley Bible Institute for providing a golden opportunity to brethren in Ette and its environs through this sponsored Bible school. This initiative has been a beacon of hope and spiritual growth for the church in our community.

*January Report*

The month of January marked the beginning of a our academic session at BVBI. The entrance exam was held from January 11th to 18th, and the screening exercise took place on January 25th. After a thorough evaluation, 29 students were admitted to the program. This milestone marked the start of a new journey for these students, who are eager to deepen their understanding of the Bible and serve the Lord.

*February Report*

Lectures commenced on February 8th, with the course "How We Got the Bible" facilitated by Amos Matthias. This course provided students with a comprehensive understanding of the Bible's history, transmission, and inspiration. The students were engaged and enthusiastic, demonstrating a keen interest in the subject matter.

*March Report*

In March, the course "Christian Evidence" was taught by Faith Jonathan. This course equipped students with the knowledge and skills to defend their faith and share the Gospel with others. The students were challenged to think critically about their beliefs and to be prepared to give an account of their hope.

*April Report*

The course "Scheme of Redemption" was facilitated by Amos Matthias in April. This course explored the Biblical doctrine of salvation, highlighting God's plan to redeem humanity through Jesus Christ. The students gained a deeper understanding of God's love and mercy, and many were encouraged to reflect on their personal relationship with Christ.

*Evangelism Report*

From March 29th to 31st, 2025, students and ministers from BVBI participated in an evangelism outreach in the Ishalu community, Ette. The outcome of this effort was remarkable:

1. The church at Ishalu was strengthened, with members renewed in their commitment to the Lord.

2. Members who had drifted away from the church were reunited with their brethren.

3. Prospects expressed interest in visiting the church, indicating a potential for new growth.

Additionally, four persons were baptized by the evangelical mission team Ette, Minister Reuben Christopher, and Alih Friday, marking a significant milestone in their spiritual journey.

*Conclusion*

In conclusion, the activities of BVBI from January to April 2025 have been fruitful, with students and ministers working together to spread the Gospel and deepen their understanding of the Bible. We are grateful for the support and guidance of the management and staff of BVBI, and we look forward to continued growth and fruitfulness in the future.

*Appreciation*

Once again, we express our heartfelt gratitude to the management and staff of BVBI for their tireless efforts in making this program a success. May God continue to strengthen and guide all who have made this initiative a reality.

Amen.
