Chapel Services
Bible Way Institute chapel services provide a time when staff and students come together to worship God. Old time preaching and the fervent spirit of worship that pervades each service. As the name of the Lord is magnified and lifted up, one senses the presence of God as His Holy Spirit ministers to hearts. We are a Pentecostal body of believers who possess the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. We desire the move of God's Spirit and encourage the operation of spiritual gifts in our services. At Bible Way Institute chapel services, you will experience the difference.

Missions Convention
A vital part of our school spiritual life is our annual missions convention. Each easter Bible Way Bible Institute comes alive with activities related to missions - contests, posters, ethnic foods, and more. Missionary evangelists share their experiences with the student body in classes and chapel services. A new awareness of the need for missions is developed, and each student is given the opportunity to answer the missionary call - either by dedicating his/her life to missions or by supporting missions through prayer and financial giving.

All Night Prayers
Each month the students meet together with their dean for a time of prayer. Students are encouraged to reach out beyond their own need and touch the need of another through Scripture, a recent testimony, or prayer - individually and as a body. Students have experienced wonderful times of refreshing in His presence during dorm prayers.
-
Soul-Winning Prayers
Students with a burden for the lost get together one hour per week to fast and pray for the salvation of the unsaved. They rejoice together when friends and loved ones accept Christ as their personal Saviour.

Class Organizations
Each class plays an active role in the school. Every week, each class meets for prayer and business meetings. Classes are involved with Student Council and other activities such as social functions, special conventions, yearbook and the graduation banquet.
