“He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart: yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end.” Ecclesiastes 3:11


Greetings!

Autumn is a beautiful season. It is the season for the renewal of nature, and it is a season for the harvest of many sorts of plants. In Palestine, it is the season of the olive and the pomegranate, as well as many other fruits that people love here. God’s creation is so beautiful - the colours and the smells and the tastes. It is indeed a time of harvest. He has made everything beautiful in His time. 

God has established Bethlehem Bible College in a time when Palestine and the region needed a training institute to prepare people to serve Him and expand His Kingdom. Since then, until now, we are living in the moment and fulfilling the call. Even though 40 years have passed, we are still in the season of harvest for God’s Kingdom. Knowing this puts us in a position where we want to serve God more, and want to impact the nations in a deeper way. We also realize that, without your help and prayers always, we would not be able to do this. So, thank you for supporting the only Arabic-speaking Bible College in the Holy Land, and thank you for giving us the opportunity to exist in a time like this. 

To continue to help us to thrive here, we would like you to send us a photo or a short selfie video of yourself, saying why you support Bethlehem Bible College. Will you stand with us in doing this. It is called #Unselfie. 

Blessings to all,
Rev. Dr. Jack Y. Sara
President of Bethlehem Bible College

Initially, the gift shop’s main mission was only to supplement College operations with some extra funds. Then they decided to also support student scholarships. Now they impact the Bethlehem community.

Bible Live: Mount of Temptation
On our journey through the Bible Live of this month, we remember Jesus when He was subjected to Satan's temptation, and pray for God's grace to resist every temptation we face, knowing that our God lived as a human and faced trials.
Bringing Bethlehem to Every Home Around the World
The course, which is the first of its kind to be offered, is an interesting experience. It's main purpose is to allow people to discover all the sites in the city, using the online technology, despite tourism being stopped in Bethlehem.
