Dear Drs. Nick and Leona Venditti, I would like to thank you for the Inste program. I graduated from INSTE in 2007 and was hired shortly there after by Prison Fellowship. I have been with the ministry for nearly 17 years now and I hold the title of Director of Correctional Programs for the Midwest. I manage a team of 8. The program has equipped me as a leader for the work I do in prisons in several states. I will be forever grateful to you for INSTE. May the Lord bless you tremendously on the next leg of your journey.

Congratulations to my good friends! Several years ago at the promotion of Billie Graham, I saw a cartoon. Christ was standing clasped in the arms of kneeling Billie. The caption said "Several million people would like to greet you'' Or something like that. I thought of you and wondered to myself how many grandchildren are in heaven --or will be when the trumpet sounds because of your faithfulness and talents. May God continue to bless your ministry. (that is singular because the ministry is united as one.) Love ya both Bonnie

En verdad le doy gracias a Dios por haber podido usar tan grandes vasijas de Honra como lo son los doctores Nick Y Lena Venditti, para ser de bendición para las naciones, dentro de ellas, para Aruba en donde vivo yo y muchos mas que tuvimos el privilegio de ser parte de este Instituto INSTE, que es una herramienta de vital importancia para la Iglesia de Cristo. Gracias, gracias por dejarse usar, gracias por ser un ejemplo a seguir, tambien gracias a todos esos hombres y mujeres del Reino que estan con ustedes en éste llamado. Dios siga siendo exaltado en y atraves de sus vidas. Con amor me despido desde la Isla de Aruba y la Iglesia Good Samaritan Christian Center. Sandra Francees

To Nick & Leona Venditti and the whole Inste family. Today together with all of you we are celebrating this wonderful milestone of 40 years with you. You made it possible for so many different nations to be able to participate, even for all of us in Aruba.
I am so grateful for all I have learned and could have applied in my life through Inste. Not only for myself but also for those around me. I committed to living for God instead of others with the help of the Holy Spirit guiding me in the right direction. I had to grow and am still growing in patience, love for one another, self controle and all the fruit of the Holy Spirit. I know now that God loves me and that i am a child of Him.
God showed me that being a “Christian” isn’t about just doing good works. I got saved through grace and it’s my duty to bring as many people as i can to Christ, not only by telling them but also showing them what Christ has done for and in me. He has given me fulfillment and purpose and joy.
Today I want to thank Inste for helping me to be a disciple for Christ.
Thank you so much and may God bless you abundantly all the days of your life.

We are grateful for the opportunity to have access to this great courses. We are proud to boast that INSTE curriculum and it's textbooks are of no kind in Ghana. We have had pastors of denominations, holding several degrees in theology, reapply to start inste course.
They always confess that, they thought h they had got it all but the volume of one inste textbooks alone makes them accept, they are many they haven't learnt.
To the founders, Nick and Leona, we pray for more grace on you. Your labour has created many genuine pastors in this dispensation.
Open Bible Ghana now has it that, every pastor to be licenced should be a graduate of INSTE.
WE ARE PROUD OF NICK AND LEONA

Merci Lena et Nick Venditti pour vos cours qui sont très utiles dans notre Eglise locale. La pédagogie est très efficace et les étudiants progressent en découvrant par eux-mêmes des vérités bibliques dans la Parole par eux-mêmes. Nous utilisons Inste dans notre Eglise depuis 2014 et nous avons formé près de 90 étudiants avec le premier module. Que Dieu vous bénisse abondamment et merci pour votre ministère qui permet la formation biblique dans les Eglises locales. Jean-Marc Botteron, pasteur à Toulouse Ouest, France.

Merci beaucoup pour ces 4 années de formation que je vais clôturer le 25 juin prochain avec l'examen final😀.
J'ai tellement appris et je suis profondément reconnaissante à Dieu pour cette œuvre qu'il vous a permis de réaliser pour la croissance spirituelle de quiconque s'est engagé dans ce parcours de formation !
Étant professeur des Écoles, je dois souligner le caractère profondément pédagogique de cette méthode qui a été (et restera !) une source inépuisable pour mieux comprendre et m'imprégner de la Parole.
Tout simplement : merci à Lena et Nick ! Et que Dieu vous accompagne encore et toujours en déversant sur vous ses bénédictions en abondance.

From Pastor Janet Lin, INSTE Taiwan coordinator:
祝賀INSTE 40週年快樂!
首先要謝謝Nick和Leona,因您們忠心堅持完成上帝的呼召,而讓神的話能有系統地進入許許多多人的生命中!謝謝Ricky牧師付上許多代價,努力地讓中文出版,讓INSTE進入華人世界,打開福音的門!INSTE在2018年進入台灣懷恩團隊,過去五年我們有超過150位學生學習,也舉辦了四屆畢業典禮,共有79位畢業生,其中大多數都是教會的牧者、領袖及同工,還包含我們上海的分堂!感謝神讓我們有機會使用INSTE,也看見教會的確培育了許多領袖,當我們更深了解神的話,服事就更加有能力了!
聖 經 都 是 神 所 默 示 的 , 於 教 訓 、 督 責 、 使 人 歸 正 、 教 導 人 學 義 都 是 有 益 的 , 叫 屬 神 的 人 得 以 完 全 , 預 備 行 各 樣 的 善 事 。(提 摩 太 後 書 3:16-17)
40週年快樂!願神繼續擴張INSTE的疆界!
Congratulations on the 40th anniversary of INSTE!
First of all, I would like to thank Nick and Leona, because of your faithfulness and persistence in fulfilling God's call, so that God's words can systematically enter the lives of many, many people! Thank you, Pastor Ricky, for much sacrifice and hard work to have the Chinese translations published, enabling INSTE to enter the Chinese world, and open the door of the Gospel! INSTE joined the Grace Ministry team in Taiwan in 2018. In the past five years, we have had more than 150 students and held four graduation ceremonies. We have a total of 79 graduates, most of whom are pastors, leaders and co-workers of the church. It also includes our branch church in Shanghai! Thank God for giving us the opportunity to use INSTE, and we have seen that the church has indeed cultivated many leaders. When we understand God's words better, we can serve with greater power!
16 All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness,
17 that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work. (2 Tim. 3:16-17 ESV)
Happy 40th Anniversary! May God continue to expand the boundaries of INSTE!
06/03/2023 - Pastor Janet Lin
I wish to congratulate Drs. Nick & Leona Venditti as we approach the 40th anniversary of INSTE. Someone has said that anyone can count the number of seeds in an apple but no one can count the number of apples in one seed. When Dr. Leona gave birth to INSTE who would have even imagined the number of “apples” that seed would produce- - and yet, only eternity will truly reveal the full amount.
We thank God for the spiritual transformation that has taken place in both students and facilitators of the INSTE program in many Caribbean countries and we anticipate that there will be more, shouldJesus tarry.
We pay tribute to two giants of the faith- Drs. Nick and Leona Venditti.

Drs. "V", you guys are amazing! Did you ever imagine the impact INSTE would have throughout the world? God has used INSTE to help form disciples, which most likely are being multiplied all over the world! But God is not done yet, there is still a lot more to be done. Personally, I want to thank you for the impact you have had in my own walk. Almost 30 years ago, you helped me fall in love with the Word of God which has been shaping my life. You thought me how to study the Bible and apply God’s Truths in my life; not only through the books of INSTE, but through your own lives. Your own lives have reflected the things you have thought us. You guys have been such a model of genuine faith and an inspiration to me. And now, we continue to train, disciple, and inspire others to live a life of faith as we train others how to study the Scriptures through INSTE. I still remember the model of disciple-multiplication: You disciple 1, that disciples 1, now there are 2 disciples; those 2, disciple 2, now there are 4; 4 disciple 4 more, now there are 8; 8 turns into 16, 16 into 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048, 4,096, etc., etc. Could you imagine, how many disciples have been made through INSTE? Some of us have gone to make more than just 1, but many! INSTE has been a tool that has honored God! May God, continue to bless INSTE, as it endeavors to make more disciples! Thank you, Drs. “V”.

From Pastor Raffy Quiñones in the Philippines
We have 8 current groups of INSTE with a total of 68 students. Two groups are in Tagalog language and the rest of the groups are in English.
This testimony is from Ptra Arlene Harayo of Libertad Butuan City:
Nagpapasalamat ako sa panginoon personaly being as Ptr sa church sa mga INSTE Students ... Dahil Malaking Impact ang kanilang mga buhay sa church... Sila yong katuwang ng Ptr sa lahat ng mga gawain sa Church at sa mga outreaches... kahit saan ko sila ilagay mapa adult or youth bible study man, or sunday preaching, or sa children ministry... Napaka laking tulong ang INSTE sa Church ...
Translation:
I thank the Lord personally being as Ptr in the church to the INSTE Students... Because their lives have a big impact in the church... They are the Ptr's partner in all activities in the Church and in outreaches... everywhere I put them on the adult or youth Bible study map, or Sunday preaching, or in the children's ministry... INSTE is a great help to the Church...
Following below is Another Testimony from Ptra Jane Antig of Matalam, N. Cotabato
INSTE Impact in the Students
-it is an instrument that God used to disciple, to equip and train church members(students) who are committed to help the church ministry. It also strengthens their spiritual discipline. I can also see transformation in their lives.
INSTE Impact in our Local Church
-There are some members in the church now who are also expressing their interest or desire to enroll INSTE because of what they have seen in the lives of the INSTE students now. So I told them to wait for the next batch. Moreover, because of INSTE it lessens the work load of the Pastor in the church because the students have their schedule in preaching in church and in the outreaches.
Glory to God for having an INSTE program in OPEN BIBLE. There is no need to go in Bible School for our church members.
Below is another Testimony by Ptr Alpe of Cabungan Pangasinan
Pastor, gudpm po!
Here is another testimony regarding to the impact of INSTE Program in every inste student here in OBCF Cabungan, Inste is a big big tool upon molding and equipping of leaders in church, every students i see a big result into their relationship unto the Lord, they have strong confident, they know their part in ministry as a starting point of being committed for the work of the Lord, they're familiar, rooted and increasing their knowledge about the word of God, i see also their Joy and excitement upon ministering. For the church through Inste more leaders are now rising up and leading in every church activity, through this Program i have more companion, the work is not hard but easy in doing our duty in outreaching, bible studies, cellgroup and other activities in the community. I could not express my grateful to God and Ptr. Raffy upon extending this program that is succed. God bless you all OPEN BIBLE families!
Testimony from Ptra Wendy Balagot of Butuan City, Agusan del Norte
INSTE is indeed a blessing. It meets our spiritual needs by deepening our understanding of God, historical events, and biblical figures, increasing our wisdom, and inspiring us to do more of what pleases God, especially in trying circumstances. Also, the preachers used several sermon formats. Additionally, it inspires students to read the Bible more thoroughly and learn more Scriptures by heart. As we continue on our spiritual path toward our ultimate destination in heaven. It is truly wonderful and a huge gain.
We are grateful that GOD has provided us with this chance, along with Rev. Raphael Quinones, Director of INSTE. God alone is deserving of all praise.

Dear Nick and Leona,
On the occasion of INSTE’s 40th anniversary celebration, I thank God for the opportunity to serve in the INSTE ministry under your leadership. I am indebted to Pastor Don Bryan who introduced me to you and who encouraged me to be involved in the INSTE Chinese translation.
I witnessed God’s grace with the launching of the translation work at the INSTE Chinese Summit at Eugene Bible College in 2009, the first entry into China in 2014, the first Level 1 graduation in Taiwan and China in 2018 and in 2023, the completion of the translation of all 28 courses into Chinese.
These are small beginnings and the future prospects are uncertain. There are over 1.3 billion Chinese speakers in China. I also continue to believe the Lord has a special place for INSTE among the 50 million or so of the Chinese Diaspora. Under the present circumstances, the words spoken to the church in Philadelphia provide hope, “I know your works. Behold, I have set before you an open door, which no one is able to shut. I know that you have but little power, and yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name (Rev. 3:8 ESV).”
Thank you, Nick and Leona, for being my Ezra.
“For on the first day of the first month he began to go up from Babylonia, and on the first day of the fifth month he came to Jerusalem, for the good hand of his God was on him. For Ezra had set his heart to study the Law of the LORD, and to do it and to teach his statutes and rules in Israel. (Ezra 7:9-10 ESV)”
May the good hand of God be on you and on INSTE.
Blessings,
Ricky

I started INSTE in 2002 and got the opportunity to meet Dr. Nick Vinditti in 2012 and got the training to become the national leader for INSTE in Ghana. I have been blessed by the content of the books and have trained several leaders and pastors for OPEN BIBLE Ghana. I opened the door for other churches to come and learn and the testimonies from other denominations was that OPEN BIBLE have something valuable we don't know because the content of the books especially the second level courses are awesome. Currently we have dynamic young pastors from INSTE who are doing well in ministry in Ghana. To the Vindittis your reward cannot be named or measured and your memories are eternal.
Bravo,! What a life well lived.

Dear Nick and Leona,
We want to send you a special congratulations as you celebrate 40 years since the founding of INSTE! We are so grateful that we had the immense privilege of working with you in the INSTE office for six years during the beginning of our marriage. During the time we worked side by side we learned so many things from you. We so appreciate you taking the time to mentor us. We will never forget your example and your hard work for the Lord. You challenged us to always humbly seek God through the study of His Word. You did not just share information or concepts, but you shared your lives with us. Because of your faithfulness and obedience to the Lord, He has blessed you greatly and multiplied your influence thoughout the nations. We pray that you can rejoice as you remember what God has done and that you may finish your race well. We miss you and we love you.
Many blessings,

I would like to take this opportunity to thank the Vendittis for the amazing work they have invested in the INSTE Bible College.
The history of INSTE in Hungary began decades ago, when we started to translate and prepare for printing this training material in Hungarian. Shortly after that, the works of Russian materials also started here.
From the beginning, Tammy Swailes was a huge supporter of this ministry, who devoted her life to planting this seed in as many hearts as possible, watering it and taking care of it over the years. She kept us informed of the wonderful work of the Holy Spirit in this area of the world. This seed produces a very bountiful harvest in the nations, which only grows larger and larger as time passes by.
Our hearts are very grateful for you, Nick and Leona. We thank you for your dedicated life and we wish you God's abundant blessings.
Thank you, Tammy, for all of your support!
May you be blessed and please give our warmest greetings to Nick and Leona if you meet them.
Love, Ica and Zoli Koncz

Words cannot express how proud I am to be involved with Inste - for decades now! Thank you for your work, your labor of love. Thank you for mentoring me - my life and ministry are better from having known you and watched you from near and far.
I've been able to see the beauty of Inste make its mark on the lives of so many - in so many diverse countries and cultures. It truly is a gift to the Church that will continue to make its influence on the Kingdom of God for... I don't know! I think we'll only know its influence when we all get to heaven!
Personally, you both have inspired me in so many ways. Your prayer life and thirst for knowledge are just two examples. Thank you for encouraging me in my academic studies, coming to visit us in Ukraine, pushing me out of my comfort zone, and allowing me to think and act out of the traditional patterns when needed.
Sandy Courtney was right, when she told me back as I was headed off to OBC, "You're going to like Dr. J!" ...little did she know how much richer the "flavor" would become when Nick came along! A bit of spicy with the sweetness!
I love you guys! Congratulations on 40 (41) years of Inste! To God be the glory! Слава Богу!

Hank and Sharon Drewfs wish to add our sincere congratulations to the wonderful INSTE family which we have been part of for nearly thirty years. Our church in Bend, Oregon was an early stateside participant in both first and second level programs, and we were always encouraged whenever Tammy Swailes and the Vendittis came to Oregon to help us. Many of our graduates have served, and continue to serve, not only as deacons and elders locally but also as pastors and missionaries at home and abroad. And, on the personal side, we continually thank the Lord for the tremendous blessing INSTE has been to the two of us and to our family as well.

I had the privilege to witness INSTE’s birth in Spain and to meet Dr. Leona and Dr Nick .
I became a student on a later stage and was absolutely amazed at the inductive system to learn ant teach the Scriptures created by Dr Leona .
I’ve been blessed by this wonderful ministry where Bible teaching became a life-changing experience to me and those I’ve had the opportunity to pastor and collaborate with in ministry.
Congratulations On your 40th anniversary and your great accomplishment of making Christ-like disciples.

Congratulations on INSTE's 40th anniversary!
I am an ex- student from Fount of Life Outreach Ministries in Perth Australia.
I completed the certificate course in Descipleship which helped me to have a proper understanding of my walk as a desciple of Christ Jesus.

Conoci INSTE a finales de 2009... esta herramienta me acerco a La Palabra de una forma diferente. Y entonces Dios, a traves de su Palabra me transformó... consolidó en mi la identidad que no se había terminado de formar hasta entonces y así experimente una forma completamente distinta de concebir la vida y enfrentar todo lo que esta conlleva. ¡Gloria al Padre por los hermanos Venditti y por todo el pueblo de Dios que ha sido parte de esta poderosa herramienta!

The church I pastored in Spokane was the pilot program for INSTE in English. It provided an opportunity to receive a quality Bible education for those who would otherwise never have been able to do so. INSTE raised the bar of biblical and theological literacy for our church workers and church planters. We are so very grateful to Nick and Leona’s labor of love that has had such a major impact for the cause of Christ around the world.

The legacy of INSTE and the power of a sound biblical foundation is evident in the current life of our church. Both of our Lead Pastor’s Josh and Melissa Stelly (who happen to be married now) received their early training in ministry in INSTE. The ministry of Turning Point and every bit of its fruit for the Kingdom of God has roots in INSTE. Thank you Nick and Leona. I am so grateful for your commitment to train disciples globally in the Word of God. I, myself, loved my years in INSTE.
With great respect,

Agradezco a Dios por la vida de los iniciadores del Seminario Biblico INSTE Hnos Vendetti, son 40 años de vida, servicio y propositos alcanzados. Dios les guarde y que siga la buena cosecha para la gloria de nuestro Sr. Jesucristo
04/19/2023 - SEMINARIO BIBLICO INSTE A.C. MEXICO
INSTE nació en el corazón de nuestro Amado Padre Celestial, Lena y Nicolás Vendetti aceptaron el llamado, para que el plan de Dios se cumpliera, obreros de valor.
INSTE para mi es un instrumento útil, que nos da herramienta para nuestro caminar con Cristo, durante mis 6 años en el Seminario fui confrontada por la Palabra, aprendí cual es mi llamado, hablar a otros de Jesús sin enojarme saber cuando hablar y cuando callar, mis compañeros de grupo más que hermanos son mis amigos, INSTE me capacito para la obra de Dios.
Gracias Lena y Nicolás Vendetti
1 Corintios 15:58

Le doy gracias a Dios por la vida de nuestros hermanos Lena y Nicolas Venditti, por este precioso trabajo que me ha llevado a un conocimiento más profundo de la palabra del Señor. Es una herramienta que quien se atreve a estudiar en este instituto, hay una transformación en su vida y ministerio. Sin duda, Inste prepara al discípulo de Cristo para esa buena obra que Dios preparó de antemano. Felicidades queridos hermanos!!!!! Sea toda la gloria para Dios!!!

Queridos Doctores Venditti:
Fue un honor haberlos conocido en la casa de los Pastores Vera en el año 2008. Recuerdo a Lena dándome la información de INSTE mientras tomábamos el cafecito de la Pastora María. Yo había confesado mi fe en Jesús solos unos meses atrás, e INSTE paso a ser parte de mi formación, disciplina y la herramienta que Dios usaría para despertar un amor por la palabra. Fue una trayectoria increíble, dado a su diseño entre alumnos, maestros y mentores. Le doy gracias a Dios por la sabiduría que plasmo en los doctores Venditti y doy gracias por su obediencia. Que en esta etapa de celebración, que el Señor les permita apreciar el impacto que su ardua labor y oración ha tenido en la vida de miles de personas. Oro, que este ministerio siga adelante en el plan perfecto de nuestro Dios. Felicidades!

Tuve el honor y placer de conocer a los hermanos Venditti, en su visita a nuestra iglesia, Restauración Ágape, en Guadalajara, en la zona Centro, donde ellos, nos hablaron de INSTE.
Años después, iniciamos con INSTE, en RestauraSión Ágape, Pinar de la Calma, iglesia que mi esposo Yong Tae Park y yo pastoreamos, bajo la cobertura de nuestros Pastores Jonás Villalobos e Imelda Ramírez, por 14 años, (Ahora, somos misioneros enviados a E.U., por nuestra iglesia)
Actualmente, tenemos 3 grupos de INSTE en la iglesia Madre, por así llamarla, porque lo es, y un grupo en la Penal.
No puedo yo, expresar con palabras, el agradecimiento que hay en mi corazón por el increíble ministerio de INSTE, mi mentora Beverly Abel, opina que fue ideado por la mente de un genio, ya que el aprendizaje del 2do. Nivel, combina la experiencia del mentor, con la enseñanza del curso... y eso no se encuentra en un instituto teológico normal!
Por mi parte, mis grupos y yo, hemos disfrutado al máximo, cada curso, hemos llorado, reído y hemos sido inspirados y empoderados, para ser instrumentos quizás, más útiles al Señor!
Dios les retribuya abundantemente, a todos Uds. Que hacen posible que INSTE siga adelante!
04/15/2023 - Lilia Flores de Park
Apreciados hermanos y maestros de la bendita palabra de Dios.

Agradezco a dios por sus vidas que han sido de gran bendición para muchas personas que han decidido estudiar la palabra de Dios y que se han formado a través de la teología en inste y ahora lo aplicamos para llegar a otros para mí ha sido muy provechoso ya que desde que Cristo llegó a mi vida yo decidí aprender más de él y llegó la opción de estudiar este seminario por extensión lo cual como madre de tres hijos y ama de casa trabajadora independiente en mi consultorio puedo hacerlo y con la ayuda de Dios ya estamos cursando el libro de Juan ya por concluir así que pues les mando muchas felicitaciones y un gran abrazo desde Aguascalientes Aguascalientes México Dios los bendiga y que sigan impactando con estos estudios a muchas personas Ese es mi deseo

Muchas felicidades por estos 40 años!! Enormemente bendecida a través de este ministerio! Recuerdo en mis inicios de convertida (más de 20 años) el Señor me dio una palabra de que usaría mi vida para predicar Su Palabra pero que me preparara, cuando Inste llegó a nuestra iglesia Centro familiar cristiano aquí en La Paz, bcs, supe que debía tomarlo! Tuve la oportunidad de cursar los dos niveles y graduarme , para la gloria de Dios a lo largo de todos mis estudios en Inste mi visión de la iglesia cambio, el ministerio tomó nuevo sentido y pude conocer más profundamente al Dios que sirvo! hoy sigo coordinando inste desde sus inicios y me muevo en los dones que Dios me dió y efectivamente, la palabra que me dio se ha cumplido, predicó la palabra sistemáticamente en nuestra iglesia y enseñó a otros a desarrollar lo que Dios les ha dado. Dios ha sido y es siempre bueno!! Toda la gloria para El! En hora buena! Bendiciones!
04/14/2023 - Lorena Ruiz de la Toba
Estimados hermanos Venditti:
Doy gracias a Dios por la forma en que los ha usado, los está usando y los seguirá usando. Lo que más me edifica de este estudio es cómo nos van guiando a leer y tener como principal recurso la lectura constante de la Palabra de Dios, no se trata sólo de saber, quizás no he retenido de memoria toda la información, pero el gran impacto que ha hecho en mi vida es cómo ha ido moldeando mi forma de ser y mi deseo por servir a mi prójimo.
Ustedes son oro en las manos de Dios!!!

Forty years and hundreds of disciples, congratulations. Thank you Drs. Nick, Leona and staff for the countless hours writing and editing twenty-eight courses. INSTE is a gift to the Body of Christ that we all are blessed studying each course. Helping each of us become disciples of Christ.
Just a thank you does not seem to express the depth of gratitude for both of you.
Blessings,

Thank you for the opportunity to not just learn more about our Lord but to learn how to use the talents and abilities I have been given. I was part of the first USA English graduation class. I have since went on the facilitate a few classes. During the first course, I found out I was created to think differently. This showed up, and continues to show up, when I ask a question and the group becomes silent. the silence is because the students need to process my question in their lives before they can answer the question asked. this would not have been possible without you and INSTE.
Thank you greatly and from the bottom of my heart.
Because of INSTE I have started the work necessary to gain my pastoral credentials. I will use INSTE as a tool to continue to influence others toward the purposes of God for them.
Thank you is not enough, Yet there is not any word better than thank you.
04/10/2023 - Sherryl James

Many blessings on you all!

Congratulations on the 40th anniversary of INSTE! Drs. Nick and Leona Venditti have given their ALL to birth this program, maintain it and spread it all over the world! As pastors, INSTE was an integral part of our church in discipling believers! It was really our "small groups" program before small groups were popular! I personally gained so much from watching people grow in the Lord and become victorious leaders! Thank you for blessing Open Bible and the Kingdom of God!
03/16/2023 - Kristine Beaird
Drs. Nick and Leona Venditi and IGBC staff we congratulate you all for the 40th Anniversary of INSTE. We praise God for allowing Open Bible to be the birth place for the vital training and discipleship program which has truthly impacted the nations of the world. Thank you all for your dedication and sacrifice!
