Presidential Note
We are so grateful for the start of Spring Semester! We are all enjoying the warming weather. 

We are also grateful for our recent Discover Rosedale event which pushed the number of campus visitors in a single year higher than any year on record. If these visits translate into student numbers our enrollment will continue its upward trend.

But more than numbers, we long for students to encounter Jesus in life-changing ways, to be truly converted to Kingdom citizens, and to become better equipped for lifelong service with a primary allegiance to Jesus as King. My heart has been "strangely warmed" these last weeks as I think about the mission of Rosedale. Our eyes are open to how God wants to use us, change us, and grow us for His glory. May He guide your vision as well!

Melissa Yoder Hired
We have hired RBC alumnus Melissa Yoder to help us start an RBC thrift store. The store will serve as a laboratory for our business students and contribute additional revenue to the college helping us continue to offer affordable Kingdom training for our students. 
One Night Worship
On Wednesday, March 8, youth groups from the area came and joined our campus for our One Night Worship! A worship band from Holmes County, 4:12 Collective, came and led us in an evening of praise and worship. 

Student Testimonial
 

Tra Abshire, first-year student
My experience at Rosedale has been a blast. The staff and students immediately made me feel welcome. They encouraged me to join new things and try everything Rosedale had to offer. Rosedale has also given me a whole new meaning to the word 'community'. I used to believe that community just meant we were together, but the new perspective Rosedale has given me is that we do "life" together. Our ups and downs are shared with each other. I have loved getting to know my fellow students and deepening my relationships with them. I have also been encouraged to preach and deepen my faith.

This or That Pt 3: 
Differing Perspectives on Foot Washing
By Daryl Driver & Joey Brown

Much of the genius of early Anabaptism was the commitment to simply obey the commands and principles of the New Testament
