World Bible School
Baptisms during 1978
resulting from the World
Bible School numbered
about 22,000! The estimate
of 50 baptisms a day is con-
sidered by some to be overly
conservative. The teaching
is accomplished through
Bible correspondence study.
Presently, about 25,000
Christians in the United
States are involved in
studying by mail with over a
half million souls in 94 dif-
ferent nations. The objective
of World Bible School in
1979 is to reach a million
students and convert 50,000
of them!
