"I am like Jonah.  I am run-ning away from God's command about what I should do in my life."</div> <bR> <div> The problem with anonymous evaluations is that we have no idea who this student is or what command he or she is running from.  But God knows him or her.  </div> <bR> <div> Would you please join us in praying for this anonymous student?  </div> <bR> <div> Would you pray that the Lord would help each of the 75 BSOP students not only to learn the content of his/her classes, but grow in his/her faith in the Lord?  Thank you.  </div> <bR> <div> May we also ask you to pray for the following short 'news' items?</div> <bR> <div> - On October 21-24 we will be traveling to Calapan on the neighboring island of Mindoro for a weekend of ministry at a church there.</div> <bR> <div> - Amor was invited to teach a class at another evangelical seminary, Asian Theological Semi-nary or ATS.  ATS is on the semester system, while BSOP uses quarters, so the academic calendars don't match.  She will be handling "Teaching Clinic" beginning mid-November.  </div> <bR> <div> - While our main ministry is teaching and mentoring seminary students, we continue to serve in OMF.  We do have some responsibilities as members of this wonderful mission agency.  </div> <bR> <div> - Members of OMF in the Philippines elect members of the mission to help with a decision-making and leadership council, held once each three months.  Jay was recently selected by his colleagues to serve on this Field Council, meeting next on Nov. 3-5.</div> <bR> <div> - Jay is the chairman of the planning committee for the OMF-Philippines Field Conference, held each 3 or 4 years.  There will be around 185 attending this conference, which will be held Dec. 28, 2004 - Jan. 1, 2005.  Jay has already received more than 600 emails about various details related to planning this conference.  </div> <bR> <div> Because God wants us to love Him with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength, </div> <div> Jay and Amor</div> <bR> <bR> <div> The printed original included a photo of students with the following caption.  (It is against our security policy to include photos of students on our web site.)</div> <div> BSOP students lead singing at a Retreat earlier this year.  Each weekend each student is involved in a ministry practicum with a local church or parachurch organization.</div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> by Jay and Amor Hallowell</div> <div> Updated: October 11, 2004</div> <div> --------------------------------- end of Hallowell content ----------------------------------------------</div> <bR> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
