New seminary school year begins

Cameron's second year of teaching at the Bucharest Baptist Seminary is in full swing. He is teaching Biblical Evangelism again, which is great because he can use his same materials (notes, reading quizzes, etc.) from last year. Cameron missed two sessions of class due to our daughter Sara's birth (thanks Jeff for covering for for him!), but he is glad to be back teaching again.

While the total number of students in Cameron's class is technically the same as last year, over twice as many students are actually coming to class each week. We consider this a real blessing that word seems to be getting around that Cameron's class is worth attending (not to mention the fact that they get participation points). On average, there are about 18 students that attend each Friday.

Some exciting news from Cameron's class is that already several students have had fantastic gospel conversations with unbelievers. Many students were able to exchange email addresses and phone numbers with the people they spoke with, and one student has already met with his new friend (a taxi driver) at least once to talk about spiritual questions! Because of the way the program is designed, over half of the students will not be assigned to take Cameron's class in the spring, but one student the other day asked if he could still come to class even though he does not have to!

All told, Cameron is very proud of his students, both of their good class discussions and overall involvement in actually sharing their faith with others. Please pray for a good rest of the semester and for continued boldness for the students. We praise God for this wonderful ministry opportunity!
