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!

Ministry in England

We praise the Lord for His goodness to us in the past six weeks!  God has allowed us to arrive in England and we are now getting settled.  We arrived on September 28 and since that time we have seen again first hand how dark this nation has become.  We are currently serving at Beeches Road Baptist Chapel under the leadership of Pastor James Zenker.  We are learning about and getting involved in many aspects of ministry.  Jonathan has had several opportunities to preach.  We are helping in weekly children's clubs and youth rallies.  We also helped out with a special VBS in October, with two children professing faith in Christ!

We have also had the privilege of seeing two people baptized in Oxford Baptist Chapel and three in Beeches Road Baptist Chapel.  Please pray for Tommy, Rebecca, Kay, Lyndon, and Nina as they grow in Christ and share Him with their families, coworkers, and friends!



We have had many opportunities to go out door to door to share the Gospel and give out leaflets about our church.  Please pray for these new contacts to continue to welcome our visits and come to know Christ as Savior. We have also had the opportunity to travel down to Brighton for two workdays to knock doors and prepare for the opening of the Brighton Bible Club.  Much cleaning, painting, and decorating has been done to prepare a school room for the children to come to hear the Gospel!
