Giving to Columbia Bible College
“Bring all the tithes into the storehouse…and try Me now in this,” says the Lord of hosts, “If I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you such blessings that there will not be room enough to receive it.” Malachi 3:10
Students contribute about two-thirds of what it costs to provide for their education. The College needs to find friends to assist with the other one-third of these costs. Columbia depends largely on the gifts of its alumni, friends and founding churches to help provide the Biblical instruction and positive community experience that thousands of students over the decades have come here to find. As a donor, your financial investment enables Columbia to keep tuition costs manageable which, in turn, affords more students the opportunity of a solid, Christ-centered education. The students, staff, faculty and Board of Directors of Columbia Bible College thank you in advance for your generous support!
Stephen Balzer is just one of the many Columbia students whose life was dramatically changed because of the generousity of a donor.
