MOBC
For the second year,
32 inmates at West
Virginia’s maximum security
prison are taking accredited
courses in Bible, theology, and
pastoral studies. The goal of Mount
Olive Bible College is to train inmates to
evangelize and disciple their peers inside the
prison and their communities upon release.
Bob Sprigg has been named Acting Director of
MOBC. Pray for this unique ministry
of ABC as it gains
momentum.

rappelling, hiking, team building, high ropes course,
and laser tag. Info: alpineministries.com/adventures.
