Silcott Ministries

Because Jane’s recurring cornea erosion became an eye infection and corneal ulcer, she stayed in Pierceton, Indiana while I took the motorhome and headed to our next meeting in Texarkana, Arkansas.  Lighthouse Baptist Fellowship has been one of our supporting churches for years.  They also helped us with Caleb’s education.  We thank the Lord for their faithful prayers and support all these years. 

Sunday morning, January 19 I spoke for a whole family Sunday School and preached for the morning service.  Then for Sunday night I presented another story through ventriloquism and preached a message from the book of Genesis.   It is always a joy to see friends and their children that we have been praying for and seeing them grow.  Thanks for praying for the Silcott Ministries.

I remained in Texarkana so that the motorhome could be worked on. Then on January 28 I drove the little car up to Missionary Acres in Silva, Missouri while Jane’s parents John and Jean Baughman and Jane connected with me. (The Acres is almost halfway between Texarkana and Pierceton.) Jane’s ulcer has healed, but the eyesight in her right eye is affected by the remaining scar tissue. She can drive short distances in the daylight; but because of her light sensitivity, she prefers cloudy days and at this time cannot drive at night.

After speaking for Glory Bound Ministries (the video recording) through Hillcrest Baptist Church, I was introduced to Pastor Denver Conway.  Pastor Conway is the pastor of Whosoever Ministries located in Fountain City.  This ministry is unique as it reaches out to the community with services that start at 2:00 pm Sunday afternoon. 

This new church which is Baptistic in doctrine is reaching out to people in the community that have been asked not to attend other churches in the area. Sunday, January 12, I told the story of Jonah and the Great Fish with a clear gospel presentation.  Please pray for those who heard the gospel but have not trusted in Christ as their Savior.
