AFRICAN CHRISTIAN SCHOLARSHIPSAfricanStudent.jpg (43134 bytes)

     NAMWIANGA MISSION, ZAMBIA was opened in 1932 by American missionaries, George and Ottis Scott as a school for their children and European children in the area.  Today it provides a complete education for African children of primary through high school age and a college program for training preachers and teachers.  Their goal is equipping and empowering Africans to claim Africa for Christ.

     WEST NIGERIA BIBLE COLLEGE was started in the last five years with Jay Beckloff as administrator and instructor.  Ileta, his wife, assists him with remedial English classes and as the librarian.  Enrollment for the fall 2002 semester has 20 students in the second year program and 45 students in the first year program.  This is the largest class in the history of the school.

     The Bentonville Church of Christ is committed to supporting 4 students at each school for the 9-month school year.

Jay, a beloved former shepherd of the Bentonville church, and his wife Ileta have dedicated the last few years in service to the Lord at the West Nigeria Bible College.  Jay is the administrator and a Bible instructor.  Some of their expenses are covered by other congregations but they pay many of their own expenses out of their personal savings.  The Bentonville church helps them each year by covering their airfare between Bentonville and Africa.
 

TEACHER FOR THE NORTH TOGO TEAM

THE NORTH TOGO TEAM has been in Togo for about 2 years.  Their mission is to teach the Kabiye people in the Kara region of Northern Togo.  This language group is the second largest of the country.  Bible teaching began in January 2002.  Three churches have been planted with a total membership nearing100. 


 

HARDING SCHOLARSHIPSHarding wordmark and students photo

For several years we have been contributing to the Harding Scholarship Fund to help support students at Harding University who are studying to become preachers or missionaries.  This help is needed and important for the future of the church, both here and abroad.

 

 


 

MEMBER MISSION TRIPS

“I came to give but I ended up getting a whole lot more than I gave.”  This is a quote from one of our teens that went on a short-term mission trip to the City of Children.  Short term mission trips change peoples lives forever. Anyone who has been able to visit our missionaries in Mexico, Africa, or the Ukraine will confirm this. We want to help young people who cannot afford to go on a mission trip with financial encouragement enabling them to go get involved in missions. Often future missionaries are able to be recruited because they were able to see first hand the Lord’s work being done around the world.
