Holmes at Accelerant

A team from Holmes Bible College attended the Accelerant Youth Conference in Gatlinburg, TN earlier this month. Around 3,500 people gathered for three days of worship, preaching, and fun. We made contact with several youth who want to attend HBC and we also reconnected with lots of alumni and friends. We were glad to see so many youth responding to the call for salvation, rededication, and ministry. HBC is here to help train the people that God has called to serve in His Kingdom.

Volunteer Weekend - February 21-22

Attention all alumni and friends of Holmes Bible College. We are asking for volunteers to help us spruce up the campus on Friday and Saturday, February 21-22.

Alumni Spotlight


Last month we caught up with John Calvin Boddu from India. John is a 2015 graduate of Holmes Bible College. After graduating, John went back to India to help lead four churches around his city. This year, John is planting another church in his city with plans to reach mostly young people. John has also opened a weekend Bible school for training more ministers in India. John is a great example of how our students are using what they learned at HBC to reach people with the Gospel.
