Greetings! Greetings from Bethlehem where summer is finally giving way to the coolness of fall. Olive harvest is on the way, and you can read a story this month about the beautiful Cremisan festival, as well as the difficulties faced at the monastery.  After summer vacation our campus is now ringing out with the voices of students who have come back for the new semester! And we want you to meet one of our staff, Areej Masoud, who coordinates our Development and Communications Department. Please enjoy our new Bible Live video from Jaffa, the home of Cornelius, where Peter learned that God has no favorites, but loves all of His creatures, lovable and unlovable. We hope this will inspire you to enfold this truth into your own life. Finally, Christmas is just on the horizon! Yes, it's time to start thinking of Christmas items from Bethlehem to give as gifts to your loved ones! Please look through our shop and see the Christmas cards that we can send from Bethlehem on your behalf. Sit back with your cup of coffee and enjoy the latest news from Bethlehem Bible College! Blessings to you all, Rev. Dr. Jack Sara President of Bethlehem Bible College
