Our Daughter & Son-in-Law: Rescue Mission Missionaries to an Island Next Door, St Croix



My daughter Bethany and her husband Abe work in St. Croix, US Virgin Islands, just 90 miles east of us. Abe and Bethany work with the youth at Southgate Baptist, but also are involved in an After-School program and also help feed the poor though a mission outreach run by their church.

I visited and preached there. The island is much smaller than Puerto Rico and the culture and language is different. They even drive on the opposite side of the road! So be careful if you visit. That activity was a bit unnerving for me!

It is good to see Baptist churches reaching out to the poor in a loving, yet intelligent way. Light House Missions is doing a great job and they are doing it right.
