April, 2008, Prayer Letter

Dear Fellow Helpers in the Lord,

Annual BEAMS Missions Institute and BEAMS Bible Conference

We had a wonderful time during our Annual BEAMS Missions Institute at our home office on Duckworth Road in Gulfport. Our BEAMS missionaries and their wives were here for a few days for this annual BEAMS homecoming. It is always a special time of refreshment and renewal. We had training sessions during the day with discussions about the past year and goals for the coming year. At night, Faith Baptist, BEAMS sponsoring church on Canal Road in Gulfport, hosted our BEAMS Bible Conference. We had three nights of spirit-filled preaching from Dr. Johnny Pope, Dr. Mark Smith, Dr. Austin Gardner, and Dr. Bobby Bonner, with special music by Bro. Tim Gordon. One young lady was saved! Thank you to all who attended. We pray you will mark your calendar for next year’s Bible Conference at Faith Baptist Church, April 7-9, 2009. Everyone is welcome to come!

New Bible Warehouse Going Up

Praise God! Our new building is finally going up! Due to our growth in sending out Bibles, we have a great need for more space. Praise God! We trust to have it soon. We are presently working out of a small warehouse and using three shipping containers to store Bibles. The new warehouse will be a tremendous blessing to our ministry. As you can see by this picture, the erection of the building is under way and should be completed in a few weeks. There will be much work to be done to complete the inside of the warehouse. We estimate that we will need another $75,000 to complete it. If you would like to help by furnishing labor and or materials or by giving a gift to purchase materials, please contact our office. We thank God for all of you who have already given. Only eternity will tell the number of people saved because you gave. 

I would like to thank each church and individual for your faithful support for the Frerets and for the BEAMS Bible ministry. We love and appreciate each of you.
