Scripture

Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor giving preference to one another; not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord; rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, continuing steadfastly in prayer; distributing to the needs of the saints, given to hospitality. - Romans 12:10-13 (NKJV)

A week of updates - Part 1

Hello all!!
It has been an amazing semester and we can't wait to share with you all that God did!  I think one of the biggest things for us and the school was God calling the school to move out of the ranch location to a place He would show us.  It really reminded me of Abraham being called out of his homeland not knowing where God would take him.

Now the LORD had said to Abram:
“Get out of your country, from your family and from your father’s house,
To a land that I will show you."
Genesis 12:1

So the school notified the ranch that we would be leaving at the end of the semester.  Mind you, we didn't know where we were going next semester, or if there was going to be a semester in February.  We took this massive step of faith and God met us where we were at!  May I introduce you to our new location: River Lodge.  Click on the link to watch a video of our new home.



Andrew and I have just moved into one of the rooms as we will be onsite for next semester.  We are excited to see all that the Lord has for CCBI here.  It is a beautiful location with lots of room for students to enjoy the outdoors.  I must say the wifi is pretty fantastic and they have a little coffee bar here.  I love their yummy lattes.  


The next semester is quickly approaching as interns arrive on January 16th and students start arriving on January 25th.  Pray with us for things to come together quickly and nicely as we set up for a new semester and what life will look like in a new location.  We are humbled and blessed to be serving alongside the leadership team here at CCBI and look forward to all that God has for us next semester.

Our praise reports:
- God provided an amazing place for CCBI
- Part one of the move is done! (Move the school into storage)
- An amazing semester with students' lives impacted by God
- We have an amazing leadership team that seek the Lord!!

Our prayer requests:
- Acclimation to our new location
- Ease of adjustment and flexibility
- Students to get the funding they need
- Teachers to rest over the break as well as prepare for their classes
- Part two of the move (from storage into River Lodge)

We will post again.. and soon!  Much love to you!!

Blessings,
Dawn and Andrew McBride
