Bethezer Boy’s Dormitory
Excerpts from the Manager’s Report: Early March 2008
Now the Bethezer Boy’s Dormitory is running step by step and this progress encourage me to have a hope that we will have a full nature Dorm soon. For my own view, I think that I will try with all of my best to create the activities and invite the Students to join in order to make Dorm improved.
For the Dorm Bible study, we have started from 27-2-08 to present and for the morning pray, we will start on 10 March. On the 10th Steve and Don will come to join with us in order to help me to lead the morning prayer.
Thank God because of God we can do all things without fear. More over, through the God’s words always strengthens me to live with joy. Before doing anything connected to Dorm I always ask Don to give me some advices to make that work good. Nowadays I am very happy to stay and work at Dorm with students and I think that I have to try to encourage them to produce the spirit fruits as much as possible.
These fruits including:
· They are happy to study bible every night, so they will learn much about the God wills.
· I will try to encourage them to invite their friend s at least a person a month to join studying the bible. I think we will have many students soon that they will believe in Our God.
Activity Report
“Now our students start cleaning Dorm after a meeting that we discussed about the dividing the places for theirs own to take responsibility to clean and another hand they all have prepared their own time to study at dorm as well. Especially on Sunday 4:30 pm they all always go to study with Don. This shows that our Dorm is improving continuously
A bout the time that we normally start studying bible is from 9:00 pm to 10:00 pm. We have started from Matthew because most of them they know a little a bout Jesus Christ. During studying bible, Students make me surprise by their learning and sharing what God teach them. “
Student Management
“They feel very happy to stay. Most of our students they cook their food in Dorm and they love each other so much. For staying here they always keep our Dorm quiet not affect to the neighbors. Every day I always encourage them to study bible at BEC according to their own free time and I also encourage them to invite their friends to join study as well. On Feb 29, 2008, we had a joint dinner at Dorm joining by all students, Don, Una, Loy. They said that the dinner like this was very good that can make them know and love each other more.”
Student Welfare
“They are the good students; they have never broken the Dorm’s law, and another hand I always observe their own actions to know who have the bad behavior so I will tell them how to change to live with the right action.
Most of them they come from the remote areas through out the province. Their family doesn’t have much money to support their study at university during they come to study in
For the students who have a few clothes to wear, I always give them clothes for using in their own daily action. If we say about them, they are so strong because they play sport nearly every evening. I love them. They have good health.”
