Presentation of the Audu* Bible School
The Audu* Bible School was founded in 1964 by SIM. Some of the early missionary teachers were George Learned and David Knowlton, and later Phyllis Erickson. Over the years, the EERN (Evangelical Church of the Republic of Niger) denomination assumed responsibility for running the school and in 1997 added an advanced Bible school to the core curriculum. The school currently offers a four-year Hausa-language Bible study program for men and women who wish to study the Bible in depth and prepare for ministry. The three-year advanced track is available to those who have completed the first program and served in ministry for at least three years, and who wish to further their training.
Points of praise and prayer:
We thank God for the recent graduation of several students. Please pray for the graduates as they enter into various ministries.
Praise God for a recent water sanitation project completed to protect crucial school infrastructure from annual flooding.
Praise God for a good October harvest, which serves to feed students and teachers and their families for the coming year.
Please pray that the students, teachers, and school receive financial assistance for basic expenses and the school's development needs.
Praise God for raising up teachers and students to study the Bible and serve among His people in Niger. Please pray for faithfulness to the Word of God.

Renovation Projects in Audu*
We praise God for the generous donations that enabled the Audu* Bible School to renovate an existing dormitory and rebuild two others. New latrines were also constructed, and the classrooms were repaired. Solar panels were purchased to pump water for the school. The faculty and students are deeply grateful for these improved facilities, which provide safe accommodation, protecting students from wind, dust, rain, disease, and dangerous animals.

Before we could carry out renovations, we had to control the annual flooding of our classrooms. We were able to build these gutters by the grace of God in 2022.
