We ask for your prayers for our Student Records Administrator

We know that 1 Johyn 5:14-15 gives us the assurance that the confidence we have in the Lord is that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us and if we know that He hears us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petions that we desire of Him, so we ask that you will please keep our Student Records Administrator, LaShannon Boozer in prayer.  Her father died on Saturday, February 27, 2010. Please keep the entire family in prayer during this very difficult time.

We are believing G-d for souls to be drawn unto the kingdom of G-d at the funeral services and that the Lord will use Shannon to minister into the lives of her family members.

The University President has requested that all University Staff stand with our dear sister at the funeral of her father which will be Tuesday, March 2, 2010 in Augusta, Georgia,, therefore Experiential Books (BA 103) will be rescheduled for Monday, March 1, 2010 in lieu of the regularly scheduled Tuesday evening.

Thank you for your understanding and patience during this semester of classes. With the winter blizzard causing cancellation of several classes, we are truly grateful for how our students have remained faithful, steadfastness and unmovable in the continuance of their Christian Education at Carolina University.

Blessings to you.

Vice President Gilbert Bukenya will be at Reconciliation Community Church

Vice President (Professor) Gilbert Bukenya will be at Reconciliation Community Church where the University President, Dr. John R. Peyton is Senior Pastor.

It is truly an honor and priviledge to welcome Vice President Bukenya to the Washington, DC metropolitian area.

We were honored to be welcomed to the home of Vice President Bukenya in September 2009 during our mission trip to Uganda and the Lord used this brother in Christ in a mighty way during our time there as well.

Our annual mission trip to Uganda for 2009 was from Sept. 1- 21. An advance team of 6 which included Dean Carol Powell, Minister Kenny and Pat Wallace, Reggie Banks, Arthur Diggs (all students of Carolina Univeristy of Theology) and Deborah Miller traveled ahead of the group of 60 to prepare the way for their arrival. The rest of the team arrived on the 10th of September with Dr. Peyton-eight of whom are students and alumni of Carolina University of Theology-Gwen Sea (08), Victoria Soberanios (08), Antonio Mason, Michelle Oden, Sarah Siglar, Triane Clowers, Don Byrd, Shannon Boozer (Student Records Administrator), and Minister Marvin Griffin, a member of our faculty.









Our main purpose for returning to Uganda was to minister with Pastor Irene Manjeri, of Bethel Healing Center, Kampala Uganda and to spend time with the children at the Bethel Kids In Needs Home and Oprhanage that Pastor Irene founded and is director of and which we support on a monthly basis. The orphanage is home to 75-100 children. Man of these children's parents have died from Aids but by the grace and miracle of G-d all of these children are aids free!!!


Dr. Peyton encouraged nine other pastors from across the nation to be a part of this powerful missionary trip and their lives have not been the same since their return.

Prayer Request

We would ask that you would keep in prayer a 12 member team that will be leaving on February 22, 2010 to Haiti for a short-term  mission trip under the leadership of the University's President, Dr. John R. Peyton.

This trip was planned and scheduled in 2009 but we now understand even the more why the Lord appointed this month as the time He would have us in Haiti.

As you know Dr. Peyton is also the senior Pastor of Reconciliation Community Church. Reconciliation Community Church has been supporting two ministries in Haiti since 1988 - Pastor Luc St. Felix, pastor of Missions  for Christ, Haiti, Port au Prince and the Sunshine Orphange Home under the direction of the Ganthiers in Petionville. Pastor Luc's ministry includes overseeing over 60 churches in mountain villages as well as schools and feeding centers in the mountain villages of Santo Desert which is about an hour and 45 minutes from Port-au-Prince; in  "Fonds-Verettes Trois-Mats" and "Foret Des Pins" which are about two hours from Port au Prince. He also has church and school in Croix-des-Bouquets. Croix-des-Bouquets was a voodoo temple and through the ministry of Pastor Luc, the witchdoctor there was won to Jesus and his place was turned into a church. It is about 45 minutes from Port au Prince as well.

Pastor's Luc's church and training center (where he would bring the pastors under his leadership from the mountain villages to train in the Word of G-d and ministry) was completely destroyed in the earthquake. There were members of the church inside when the earthquake hit. This great man of G-d has lived a life of faith dedicated to winning Haiti for Jesus Christ. Despite the news that is often aired about this island - there are a people of G-d in Haiti winning souls!

The Sunshine Orphange home is home to children who parents have either died or abandoned them (before the earthquake). "Poppa and Momma J" Ganthiers have taken in children for over 25 plus years and are the only parents that many of these children will ever know. (The picture to the left are some of the children at the Sunshine Home. Photo was taken on our last trip in 2006). We know with what has taken place, many more children will need the love and care of Poppa and Momma J.
 
Dean Carol Powell will also be a part of this trip. Haiti was her first missionary travel in 1988 and she has a (spiritual) daughter in Tros-Mats (Marianna) who she met when in '88 when Mariann was only 5 years old.

Thank you n advance ifor your prayers and we are believing to be used by G-d in whatever way He deems fit while we are in Haiti.

What Exactly Is Cabin Fever?

That's the question for today? With the blizzard conditions we are now experiencing in the Washington, DC Metropolitan, Northern Virginia area, the term is being used on a regular basis. What exactly is cabin fever? We have received several emails from students, alumnus and faculty alike, saying they have "cabin fever." Even the weather and news casters on TV keep using the phrase. So what exactly is cabin fever.
Cabin fever is an "idiomatic term for a claustrophobic reaction that takes place when a person or group is isolated and/or shut in, in a small space, with nothing to do, for an extended period (as in a simple country vacation cottage during a long rain or snow). Symptoms include restlessness, irritability, forgetfulness, laughter, and excessive sleeping, distrust of anyone they are with, and an urge to go outside even in the (less miserable) rain, snow or dark." WOW!!! I guess we can say some of us have cabin fever.

Well, we don't want any of our students to suffer from cabin fever, spring fever or any other kind of fever, so watch your emails for some assignments for BA 102 - Old Testament History and BA 103 -Experiential Books.

No, no, you don't have to thank us. We know you are truly appreciative and we love you too.

Here's a sample of what you can be on the look out for: BA 103 - Experiential  Books Part I:

1. Explain the central issue of the book of Job.


2. There are two “basic approaches to explaining the central issue of Job” what are they?

3. What date was Job written?

4. What is the central message of Job?

5. Satan was called to present himself before God, why is this important?

6. How many cycles of discourse were there between Job and his friends?

7. How many times did each of his friends dialogue with Job?

8. What are the four areas that God challenges Job on? 

9. What bearing does God’s rebuke of Eliphaz, Bildad, and Zophar have on the inspiration of the Bible?

You can start on the above questions if you are enrolled in BA 103 - Experiential Books and check your email for your additional assignments.

Let it snow, let it snow, let it . . . OH NO!!!

We know if you feel like we feel, we want to say "ENOUGH ALREADY" with regards to the snow that has covered our area for the last two weeks.

Due to the unexpected and unsual amount of snow fall this academic year, the University Winter-Spring Session will be extended to make up for the snow days.

We will be emailing to you the updated academic calendar and mailing a hard copy to you as well.

Continue to read your course material and do the required assignments.

Don't worry, we will be seeing you soon!!
