My home church of First Baptist Church of Afton had it's annual Mission's Conference this past weekend. We were blessed with three special ministries this year. Ben Kettor, a native of Liberia, who is with Orphan Cry Ministries, gave one of the most exciting challenges of the weekend. He told of a group of missionaries who came to his grandparents village many years ago,spreading the Good News of Jesus Christ. His parents were Christians as well, but Ben told us that according to the Bible, each of us must give an account for ourselves. He told us that no ones mother or father can give an account for any of their children. Ben is currently a student at Davis Bible College in Binghamton, New York. He has been in the United States since August, 2007, leaving his wife Frances and his son, Ben, Jr., in Liberia. We are praying that their visas will come through shortly so they can be reunited with Ben and work together with Ben and his ministry. Ben hopes to finish his schooling and return to his native Liberia to continue spreading the Gospel to his native people.
