Summer has brought a welcome break to IBSTE. Our residence hall and classrooms are quiet for a few months as students scatter across Spain and beyond. Many are working summer jobs to save for next year's tuition, while others are serving in churches or helping at Christian camps. For our faculty and staff, summer provides an opportunity to catch up on administrative work, plan for the coming year, finish writing projects, and enjoy some much-needed rest and refreshment. We are praying for a large group of freshmen when classes resume in September. A sizeable incoming class strengthens the life of the seminary by enriching classroom discussion and fostering a vibrant Christian community. Even more importantly, however, we desire to see the Lord raise up more faithful laborers for gospel ministry throughout Spain. Please pray with us for 15 new students for this coming year at IBSTE!
