News From Frank Laurent
Missionary to the Deaf of Tanzania
The year 2014 seems to be a spiritual revolution in our deaf church as the church is growing in number with a lot of challenges; yet, we keep pressing toward the mark of the high calling of God! Last December, we celebrated our Annual Christmas Banquet where 80 people attended with Deaf and Hearing. We believe that God uses Deaf to reach Hearing people. Also, God uses Hearing people as well to support their mission program so that Christ may be glorified. No matter being Hearing or Deaf, all we need is to work together as a team for one Master, Jesus Christ.

BIO Offers Several Services
Our mission statement is “Helping you fulfill the Great Commission.” We are always thrilled when we can make it easier for you to serve the Lord. You, of course, is you, whether you represent a local church, are an individual donor or missionary or whether you are someone trying to find your place in the Body of Christ.
For our missionaries we now offer accident, dental, disability, long-term care, and term life insurance along with 403(b) retirement plans in cooperation with Guidestone Financial Resources. We are also set up with Samaritan Ministries International for missionaries who would rather go the medi-share route for their health care needs. Besides these services BIO now offers legal and identity theft protection through LegalShield.
For donors, you can now give to your missionary by check, PayPal, Direct Deposit or by ACH Draft. Feel free to contact the financial office for more information.
Missionary Family to Northern Ireland
Jeremy & LaTonya Kilgore & family
Having just celebrated St. Patrick’s Day it is fitting that we introduce our missionaries on deputation for Northern Ireland. The Kilgores were approved last November as missionaries sent out of Eastwood Baptist Church.
Northern Ireland is a country that has a history of civil war, strife and division. The sad fact is that for centuries this hatred and bitterness has been carried out in the name of religion. The Kilgores desire to help bring healing to this land by preaching and living the true Gospel of Jesus Christ. True peace can only be found in Christ.
