The last of February Linda and I went north to Ohio for two meetings in four days. God was so good to keep us safe on the highway as we traveled 600 miles round trip to places we had never been.

First we went to First Baptist Church of Milford where Dr. Bill Duttry is the pastor. There we met with Dr. & Mrs. Keen who are gracious hosts. Linda especially enjoyed being with Mrs. Keen while I was with Dr. Keen, Pastor Duttry and the Bearing Precious Seed Staff. During this meeting on Thursday, Dr. Keen explained about the move of FirstBible International to Milford and underneath the BPS umbrella of ministry as an extension. I believe this to be a good fit and directed by the Lord. It was a privilege to meet the men of BPS and look forward to working along with them for the furtherance of the word of God.

On Thursday afternoon we drove to Portsmouth, Ohio for a Christian Home Crusade. In this meeting we were given the opportunity to tell about the ministry of FirstBible on Friday morning to a group of area pastors. What a joy to fellowship with Pastor Ryan Brown and the folks from Calvary Baptist Church.

Friday afternoon the meeting was moved from the church to Shawnee State University for a large crusade with sessions for the children, teens, and adults. The closing service was combined in the auditorium where a large crowd attended to hear Dr. Clarence Sexton preach on the home.

The most troubling thing for this Georgian was that it began to sleet and snow and I had to drive home the next day to be in Atlanta for Sunday. God took care of all my fears. It was a joy to be used of the Lord.
