At last, the internet strength is strong enough to post letter from Elisabeth Cook, Rector at UBL (Bible University where Margie Miller volunteers). 
Valparaiso 1st UMC received a letter today thanking us for our support of UBL - specifically $200 for the scholarship fund and $1,550 for the new "Moving Ahead, Moving Online". Through individual donations on Giving Tuesday, our National/International Mission team, the Monthly Mission Focus, and United Methodist Women we have been a great support for the place Margie Miller calls home about 1/2 of the year.
Scholarships are such an important part of the school's ability to serve the students who come at great sacrifice to their families; a bit of assistance is essential for them to get this certification/degree to be used in their home country. Video conferencing is now offered which will keep the student expenses as low as possible and the stress on the family much reduced. Our funds have helped in both areas. Thanks Margie for being there. We look forward to working through you in the future.
