The passion for souls and missionary vision of the Institute’s renowned founder, Dwight L. Moody, is an ever-presefit challenge to students and grad uates, to the dedicated faculty ¿nd more than 500 full-time employees. In the classroom, at chapel services and on practical work assignments . . . students are trained and led into an understanding of God’s missionary pur pose for their lives and encouraged to choose their lifework on the basis of where and how God can best use them. To Christians around the world, MB I is more than a school . . . it is liter ally a “mission station” in the heart of metropolitan Chicago, seeking to win lost souls everywhere —on Madison Street or in Malaya, New York or New Guinea, California or Calcutta . . . and by all means— through personal testi mony, preaching, distribution of gospel literature, films, television and radio. The tuition-free training and MBI’s many ministries are supported by the prayers and gifts of Christians with a missionary vision. Without these gifts, the training and missionary challenge afforded by MBI would not be available to many dedicated young men and women. The directors of many of the large mission boards are former students who received their training and missionary vision at MBI. Today, there is a greater need than ever for your prayers and your gifts to help the Institute maintain this tuition-free training and expand its far- reaching ministries to the far corners of the world.
