Volume 34 Issue 5 (September/October/2021)

Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!

The Latest News:

  • We will be heading up to Wilson Avenue Baptist Church in Aurora Missouri on 10/17/2021. We have been hosting a website for them, and we have been invited to present the ministry.
  • Our hosting provider is raising their rates. We also had to get a new server (much less expensive than the current provider) due to volume (adding websites which is a good thing). Please pray for wisdom!

Church Website Ministry:

  • Maureen and I met John McElroy from BEAMS (Bible Education and Missionary Service) at the 2019 East Texas Baptist Camp Meeting. He told me then he was interested in a personal BEAMS ministry website, and he would contact me. We met again at this years (2021) East Texas Baptist Camp Meeting. Again he told me he would contact me. This time he did contact me. We met together, and worked out the details on what he was wanting to accomplish. He decided on a domain name of mcelroy-beams.com. We set up a WordPress website. I spent some time with Brother McElroy, explaining how to set up and maintain his website. John McElroy did not have a computer. Given the difficulty of trying to maintain a website from his cell phone or tablet, I gave him an old laptop I had. Everything seemed to work out fine. John now has a working website and a function computer to make changes on it.

I won’t miss the opportunity to stay in God’s Word and the opportunity to grow in faith. God give me peace and His word is my light and His word is what keeps me going in this dark place. Again, thank you so much for the Bible study. God bless you.
