Community Bible Study • www.communitybiblestudy.org • www.cbsinternational.org [email protected] • 800-826-4181 Dennis and Lynda Blake: Calebs to South Sudan Dennis and Lynda Blake were both raised in Christian homes. Lynda spent her childhood and youth actively involved in church activities. She invited Christ into her life, at her parents’ bedside, at age 8. Dennis chose a different path. He spent his youth seeking the things the world had to offer. At age 21, on Mother’s Day, Dennis gave his life back to the Lord. Dennis and Lynda met and fell in love at Moody Bible Institute in Chicago, IL. At that time they both knew they wanted to serve the Lord in whatever path He chose for them. After retirement from education and public transportation they became involved in some Christian schools in Africa. It was during these visits to Africa they became aware of the tremendous need for personal Bible studies among the children and adults. Returning from one of their trips Dennis mentioned to his friend the fact he was looking for Bible studies he could bring back to Africa. His friend, who attended a CBS class, recommended Dennis contact the CBS Africa Regional Director, Maury Kapsner and explore that avenue. The rest is history. Dennis and Lynda say, “We are now actively involved in a CBS class in our community and are the CBS Calebs to South Sudan, Africa. What an exciting and challenging opportunity the Lord has given us! We praise His name. He is doing a mighty work in Africa.”
