With the new semester, I am teaching some courses for the first time at the school. Right now I am only teaching the first year students (7 women and one man). One course is Old Testament history, teaching the 12 books from Joshua to Esther. This is a challenge for the students and myself also, for there is on average only 3 lectures designated to each of the books. I just finished also teaching a class on faith, challenging students to overcome all the giants that they have faced or will face in life. I have just also started a class on false religions and cults, teaching the students the most important differences as compared to Christianity, how to witness to them, how to discern when a true church starts to turn down the path of a cult. I have invited as a guest speaker next month the head of the Jewish community to speak as we are studying various religions. We hope that by doing so we will also understand deeper our Jewish roots and initiate an ongoing cooperation with the small Jewish community here. The chairman of the Jewish community (for they do not have a rabbi yet) is pleased to come and invited me to be at the Hanukkah celebration this week. It was an honor to attend and to meet both him, and one of the head rabbis from Warsaw.
Please pray for the school’s financing, as the amount of student fees do not cover the basic costs of maintaining our building at the moment.
