Tuition rates have been maintained this year at a reduced level to help make the school more accessible to everyone - particularly to families with children age 18 and under. Additional Donations would be gratefully accepted.
Plan ahead and save for Bible School by budgeting!! If you plan to attend NFCBS at Lakefield 2013 decide how much you can save per week and begin saving when you register for Bible School. Some save a “toonie” per day to pay for their tuition – others save a certain amount per week. Alternatively, if you begin your saving plan in May, 2013 figure out how much money you will need for tuition and divide that amount by the number of weeks until Bible School.
If you cannot afford the full tuition but can pay part of it contact Bruce or Barb Abel. There is financial assistance available for people who want to attend but need assistance with the full tuition cost. This may include seniors, students or those currently unemployed.
Rate for Day Visitors: Please contact Bruce Abel (bnb69abel@hotmail.ca) for further details.
