Our church provides INSTE. INSTE is a five year
course offered by Open Bible Standard Churches which gives people the
opportunity to meet with other people to receive bible school training in our
area. It is more than an extension course because their is the group
interaction that is also a valuable part of the learning opportunity.

We are linked with
Tom Stamman (prophetic evangelist) in prayer, support, regular meetings in
our church. Monthly we see people coming to Christ in these meetings.
We were excited to have Tom come to our local college campus DMACC.
Several accepted Christ that night.

We were thankful and excited to be able to
finance the building for an Open Bible Congregation in Nondimedu, India
the end of 2000. Their reports are very exciting when we learn of many who
have come to Christ since that time as well as other new churches they have
planted in their area. It is exciting to know we were able to be a
blessing in this work.
