An EBS alumnus recently visited me (Matt) just to catch up. Excellent Paul was one of my favorite students.
He was a non-traditional student that went from being homeless, to completing his secondary education at an older age, to then enroll at EBS. His heart looks like Jesus and is a “Flag-Ship” student for EBS.
“That’s wonderful! How did it all come about?”
“I’m so glad, brother. Thank you for your service to Jesus!…what can EBS do to help the cause? Are you facing any obstacles that may cause a decrease in momentum?”
“We desperately need discipleship materials to follow-up with converts. They need to know how to truly follow Jesus and become full-blown, faithful disciples,” he replied.
At that point I told him about EBS’ Reaching the Heart of Haiti program is designed specifically for making disciples in Haiti and can be used even by those who cannot read or write. He was thrilled. He’s having a follow-up meeting at the end of this week with EBS Staff to get training in how to use the materials along with a supply to get things moving among these new converts.
Pray for Excellent and these 176 new believers. Jesus is constant drawing people to himself. It is an honor to be a part of it!
