It is hard to believe we have almost concluded our first quarter of whole-life discipleship training. Our 24 students have served more hours in service and mission than last year&#8217;s class because of more availability of trips. We have sent three teams already and will be sending our choir and students this weekend to participate in three churches. Pray for our quarter break that we all can use to refresh ourselves over the holiday and be prepared for a heavy week upon return with our annual biblical counseling intensive course. This is an emotional and growing week for our students and staff.<\/li>\n<li>Faculty &#8211; Three of our staff just finished a great Regent Seminary class in &#8220;Counseling in Community&#8221; . . . way to go faculty! Currently we have four staff working towards their Master&#8217;s in Theology. We are busy leading both the freshmen and Encore classes in new directions as we expand our program. We are also happy to welcome Pastor Phil Edgerly to our counseling staff. New Hope Counseling Center now has a committed team of four mentors and counselors serving our students.<\/li>\n<li>Finances &#8211; Pray for our weekend benefit dinner in Eagle River on Saturday night. Our goal is to assist our students with financial support through this fundraiser to keep our already low cost of attending Alaska Christian College possible to all who wish to come. Pray for a possible second federal grant that we will hear about the first of the year. This would boost our recruiting and scholarship abilities. We trust God for all things that make Alaska Christian College a ministry for young people seeking after God and ministry.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Alaska Christian College is sponsored by the Evangelical Covenant Church of Alaska with a mission &#8220;to prepare young people for whole-life discipleship, which is accomplished through learning, building, and serving.&#8221; For more information, contact Hamilton by telephone at 907-260-7422 or by email at www.alaskachristiancollege.org.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Copyright \u00a9 2011 The Evangelical Covenant Church.<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-report-this\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.covchurch.org\/newswire?moderation_action=report_form&#038;object_type=post&#038;object_id=9939&#038;width=250&#038;height=300\" class=\"thickbox\" title=\"Report This Post\">Report This Post<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SOLDOTNA, AK (November 13, 2003) &#8211; More than 80 individuals were on hand for the dedication of a 9,000-square-foot dormitory this past weekend at Alaska Christian College.
