Great Conversation under the big tree on campus.

After chapel today I had the chance to sit and talk with Pastor Black, the president of the college, and Pastor Dwayne, the pastor of Hillview Baptist Church in Montego Bay.

Two things about the conversation were great...

1. Pastor Dwayne had great memories of the BBS students who visited in 2007 (http://bbsjam07.blogspot.com/).  While it was a great trip for those of us who went, it was an encouragement to hear that he and other pastors were encouraged by our coming down and sharing with them.
2. Pastor Black and Pastor Dwayne were very appreciative of Emmanuel sending me down to teach a class on Biblical counseling.  They both shared how Biblical counseling has impacted their lives and ministries.  

Please pray for these two pastor and the ministries in the churches and the college.

Pastor Black is working on his doctorate through Baptist Bible College and is coming to the end the program.  Pray for endurance and wisdom so he can finish his final class and his thesis well.  Pray for wisdom as he applies the things he is learning to his life and ministry.

Recently, a long time member of Hillview Baptist Church passed away.  The funeral is on November 23.  Pray for Pastor Dwayne and others as they minister to the friends and families in the area who have been impacted by this death.
