Greetings!
Just a word of thanks to all who have been praying for the Carlstrom Deaf Studies Pastoral Ministries program. As you know, in February, the NCU Administration announced the closing of the program in the Spring of 2012. It is with great joy that we announce the gracious hand of provision by our Lord and Savior. On Friday, April 15, the Lord provided donors who have committed $400,000 by the Fall to start the endowment for the CDS program and will complete the needed additional $600,000+ in due time to complete an endowment of $1.000,000 to keep the Deaf Pastoral Studies program permanently open. It is the heart for training Deaf pastors and a commitment to obedience that made this donation possible.
The Administration has clearly announced today in our North Central Chapel that the program will NOT be closing.
This is only the beginning though -- we would like to see our alumni get behind the program financially as well to secure a sustaining endowment.
Bless the Lord and thank you for your prayer support.
