Ladies Graduation

Every year, Mrs. Sarra works diligently to identify and then teach ladies from God's word. At the end of the year, if the women have met certain requierments, they receive a 1-year certificate that is received during the NSBI graduation ceremony. Although not "officially" a part of NSBI, we count it a great joy to see these women learning so much and applying it to their lives. Lorna has been so steadfast over the years teaching year-in and year-out new groups of ladies. In all, there were 7 women that graduated in 2009.
The concept originated when so many men were coming to the Bible Institute. While these men were at school, their wives often had to pick up extra work, take care of the children, keep the house, etc. The result was that the ladies were falling behind spiritually. Mrs. Sarra came up with the idea of teaching one-time a week at a convenient location for a few hours to help encourage and foster a greater spiritual walk for the whole family!
