Catching Up with the Clemmers

 

IM Missionaries Bill and Ann Clemmer were recently in Dover to share updates on their ministry. Both FBC and Christ Memorial BC, Dover, are strong supporters of the Clemmers and the amazing work they are doing in Africa. It was both inspiring and heartwarming to hear the stories Bill and Ann shared as they care for the people of Goma in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Kudos to the First Baptist Church of Pottsville which recently celebrated its 175th Anniversary.
