OCTOBER 22-23, 2010

This is when our second annual Ladies’ Retreat will be held here on the beautiful campus of New Brunswick Bible Institute! We are pleased to let you know that Mrs. Linda Reed from Ottawa, Ontario will be our speaker this year. Linda is the wife of Pastor Rick Reed of the Metropolitan Bible Church. We look forward to hearing what the Lord lays on her heart concerning our theme, “Abundant Joy.” Sarah Jane Bishop will be ministering to our hearts through music. We are excited to have these women come and share with us for this very special weekend. Please plan to join us and bring along your friends.

Check future bulletins for more details!

On Monday, April 19th at approximately 1:30 p.m. the New Brunswick Bible Institute Registrar opened two letters from Ghana, Africa, one of which contained a suspicious white power. The RCMP were immediately called and they, in turn, alerted fire departments, the ambulance service and HAZ MAT (hazardous material response team). The school office complex was evacuated and three employees, who had come in contact with the envelopes, were isolated. Staff and students were notified and our campus was cordoned off. A thorough investigation was conducted of the school office and the material in question. Tests revealed the powdery substance to be non-threatening or harmful to those who came in contact with it, anyone on our campus, or the response teams.

We highly commend the efficiency, professionalism and dedication of the various police, EMS, fire departments and HAZ-MAT teams who responded to this call. We are thankful no one was harmed or injured as a result of this alarm. We are very appreciative of the federal and provincial governmental services and civic authorities who provide such a high level of protection for Canadian citizens.

Any further questions, concerns or requests for interviews should be directed to the President’s Office at New Brunswick Bible Institute.

MFG 2010 - Fire Department Presentations

Several hundred men from the Maritimes, New England and as far away as Saskatchewan flooded onto the NBBI campus for a challenging, yet rewarding, Men for God Rally this weekend. Lives were touched, as Dr. Michael Loftis, President of ABWE- Harrisburg, opened the Word of God and spoke directly, without hesitation, to our attentive men.

Tremendous fellowship, great food, uplifting music and good open laughter were enjoyed by each man who attended. Read More
