The Bevin Center was opened on October 9th, 2012 in honor of Brittiney Bevin; a 17-year old who tragically died in a car accident in front of the seminary. Matthew and Glenna Bevin provided an endowment to fund the center for the advancement of the gospel amongst the nation and nations.

The night before she died, Brittiney Bevin wrote this prayer in her journal.

“You hold the only peace that can fill the deepest hole. But how do I get it? You said, ‘Ask and you shall receive.’ I am asking and I know that you will give it to me. Every week you bless me so much and teach me lessons after lessons. I know that once again you are showing me your love. I can’t fathom how much you feel when one of your children suffers, but I’ve had a glimpse of your heartache. Please fill me with your wisdom that I won’t just watch others suffer, but that I’ll be able to say what they need to hear. As a new week approaches, my dangerous prayer is that you’ll place broken hearted people in my path and fill me with you so that I can let your love heal their pain.”
