On Sunday morning, September 1st, we drove to Goa, on the Southwest India coast where the Luther Rice Bible Institute classes were held, -another six to seven hours South of Kolhapur. We checked into the Majestic Hotel there. It was very nice, even air-conditioning which we enjoyed because Goa is hot and humid. We met the local host pastor named Jaison Job (pronounced Jobe).
Classes began Monday morning September 2nd, at 8:30 a.m. with 54 national pastors and dedicated laymen and a few women. The class was in another hotel, which was not air-conditioned except with ceiling fans. I taught all day every day to 5:30 p.m. (with breaks) until Friday, Sept. 6th. They also had many challenging questions but they had a great spirit and were encouraging. The first week I taught a Bible College manual, “Preparing Bible Messages & Pastoral Ministries.”
