October • 2007 • Prayer Letter

Dear Fellow Helpers in the Lord,

Greetings in the precious name of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. I pray my prayer letter finds each of you doing well. Freda and I have both been sick for the past few weeks. I have had the flu and Freda has had an ear infection that has taken us off the road for a while. We appreciate your prayers and thank the Lord that we are on our way to a full recovery.

Warehouse: Last month, I reported that the Lord blessed the BEAMS ministry with a designated offering of $150,000.00 for a new warehouse. I am pleased to report this month that the Civil Engineer has the plans drawn up and will soon be taking them to the City of Gulfport to obtain a building permit so that we can begin to pour the foundation. The new warehouse will be 50’ wide and 140’ long and will house over 200,000 Bibles. Amen!

Special Project: We are still raising funds for our Thai Bibles. Between just 2 missionaries, we have had a request for 9,000 Bibles. We are a little over half-way there with the raising of the funds. Our cost for this project is $74,404.15. We have raised $33,628.90 which leaves us with a balance of $33,628.90 to meet this need.

Make your plans to attend the Fourth Annual National BEAMS Conference. It is going to be great. Dr. Eric Capaci and the folks at Gospel Light Baptist Church in Hot Springs, AR, are working hard to make us welcome. You will be thrilled by the special music provided by Gospel Light and the preaching from some of God’s choice servants. Brings your families and make this a vacation. You will have time in the afternoons to sight-see and relax. Hope to see you there.
