Ministry Partners Update
Update from Sunday Agang (Dave Williams is the ministry liaison)
Dear coworkers in the gospel,
Greetings! I hope this email finds you well. You guys have remained in my thoughts and prayers. I am sure it is no longer news that I was reappointed as Provost of ECWA Theological Seminary, Jos (JETS), owing to your fervent prayers and support.
As I observe Nigeria's inflation rate hit 34.19%, I am concerned. But I hear what God says to me: "I called you from the furthest corners of the world. I said, "You are my servant." I chose you and did not reject you. So do not be afraid, for I am with you; do not be discouraged, because I am your God. I will strengthen and help you; I will support you with my righteous right hand." (Isaiah 41:9–10).t your work and the love you have shown him as you have helped his people and continue to help them."Hebrews 6:10.
To God be the praise!
With much love to everyone,
Sunday B. Agang.
Rise University Prep Work Day and BBQ, Saturday, August 10
We’re so excited to invite you and your congregation to our 2nd annual Bless the School Year Work Day & BBQ on Saturday, August 10th from 10am-2pm. During this special day, alongside many of our community partners and supporters we’ll be getting the campus ready for the new school year. Beginning at 10am, we will be sharing in work projects such as cleaning, organizing and even creating encouragement cards for students and staff. At 12pm noon we will fellowship together over a free BBQ lunch. To close out at 1pm we'll break off in groups to pray for the school and surrounding neighborhood.
It’ll be a great, fun opportunity to join in community and support our amazing Rise students and staff.
