Maranatha Bible Institute
Marantha Bible Institute was founded in 1976 to help prepare people for ministry in a French-speaking context.  Maranatha's five-year study program includes a traditional four-year Bible education plus a one-year practical internship between the third and fifth years of study.  Maranatha also offers a Jula language study program for student wives.  Currently, around 50 students, including spouses, are enrolled at Maranatha Bible Institute.
