On June 1st, 2009, Dr. Meddars, a Paul Harris Fellow, was the guest of Sussex Rotary when the Club said thanks to him for all he has contributed to the community, the Bible College, and the Fundy Civic Center during his time in Sussex...
Dr. Meddars gave a farewell speech to Rotary as he would be leaving his role as President of Bethany Bible College this month and moving to Orlando, Florida, to work for the organization that looks after the accreditation of Bible colleges. Although primarily a Wesleyan college, Dr. Medders explained that the College draws from many denominations from both Canada and the United States. Bethany Bible College has an economic impact on the community of Sussex, both in providing employment and by bringing in students who become a part of the community. Bethany’s primary role is to give men and women for ministry and graduates are now serving all over the world.
Dr. Meddars was thanked by Wendy Osborne (right) and wished him well on his new endeavours on behalf of the Club.
