Missions Conference At the end of the fall semester, several days are devoted to a special missions emphasis. Student committees assist in the planning and implementation of all the activities under the direction of the Bible Institute and International Ministries staff of Word of Life. Keynote speakers and seminars, as well as personal interaction with the missionaries themselves, provide valuable insight and motivation. These few days provide indispensable information for students considering missions and very often dramatically change the direction of a student’s life. Founder’s Bible Conference Soon after the students return from Spring Break, we hold our annual Word of Life Founder’s Bible Conference. Gifted speakers from around the world come and minister to the spiritual needs of the entire Word of Life family including the students and staff. Conference topics have included: Biblical Prophecy, Sufficiency of Scripture, The Supremacy of Soul Winning, Ministry of the Master, and The Family, to name a few. We consider these conferences (Missions Conference and Founder’s Conference) an integral part of the Bible Institute curriculum and expect all students to be in attendance. Students are required to make up any part or all of the conference he or she might have missed.
