About Me

My wife and I are missionaries to England. We will be planting local, New Testament, Bible-believing Baptist churches. We are sent out of Mamre Baptist Church in Kitts Hill, Ohio. We will be serving in Beeches Road Baptist Chapel upon arrival. This is a church plant near Birmingham, England. Please pray for God to be glorified and the hearts of the British to be opened to the Gospel!

The Blustery North

After our meeting in Tennessee, we took a nice long drive up to Houghton Lake, MI.  What a change of scenery!  This was the first time Jonathan or I had ever seen people ice fishing.  This is the largest lake in inland Michigan, right next to Higgins Lake, which is the deepest.  Houghton Lake was frozen solid and people were out fishing and driving four-wheelers on the ice! 



On Wednesday evening we were at Houghton Lake Baptist Church.  We had the opportunity to speak to the children for a few minutes about what a missionary does and where we are going.  It is always a blessing to us to let children know that they can be a missionary right where they are because they can share Jesus Christ with their family and friends. 

We were able to show our DVD presentation and Jonathan gave a short challenge from the Bible on prayer.  Pastor Milam was beginning a special emphasis on prayer, so we spent the remainder of the service in a time of prayer.  We also met up with some friends from Camp CoBeAc and had a great time of fellowship!
