SAN ANTONIO -- The Annual Vision Dinner for Sunset International Bible Institute (SIBI) will be held in San Antonio Sept. l2, 7 p.m. It will be served at the Omni San Antonio Hotel at the Colonnade, and Truitt Adair, Sunset's Executive Director, will be the keynote speaker.
Said Regional Ministry Coordinator Everett Hysten, “The accomplishments of SIBI within the churches of Christ in the area of world evangelism in its 46 years of existence have been phenomenal and unparalleled. Those attending the event will be pleased to see and learn what God is doing through His people.”
The taglines describing the SIBI ministry include “What God Is Doing for His Glory” and “Together We Are Advancing the Cause of His Kingdom.” Funds raised during the event help advance the ministry of evangelism in the United States and in several locations throughout the world.
Beyond the resident campus in Lubbock, SIBI provides ministry training in 377 satellite schools and 57 international branch schools. Sunset also offers course work through the internet and distance learning schools.
The school and its graduates help to plant and support local congregations, and they partner with other parachurch organizations within the churches of Christ. Over 8,000 students throughout the world are currently being trained under the auspices of SIBI.
Adair has been the Institute’s Director since 1993, succeeding the late Cline Paden, who founded the institute, formerly known as Sunset School of Preaching.
