“This was the Lord’s doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?” (Mark 12:11)

September 1-2 of this year was the 8th Annual BEST Missions Conference. Did God do marvelous things? There was an offering of $50,807 at the conference. Tan was there, and he got to preach. His support is at 73%. He is the main man for the distribution of Scripture in Southeast Asia.

I was unable to attend this year because of my stroke. I watched the conference online because of my inability to travel. My, but what a blessing it was! Thank God for Dr. Curtis Hall, Pastor Pearson, and all of the men of God who preached.

The last week of August, Dr. Hall and Tan were able to load BEST Missions’ 47th container of Scripture. We want to thank World Missions Precious Seed and their Seedline churches, Faith Scripture Printing, and Sweet Springs Baptist Church in Huntsville, Missouri, for helping make this possible.

There was 9 whole Bibles, 9,821 Thai New Testaments, 174,450 Thai John and Romans, and 5,430 Chinese John and Romans. Each container cost BEST $6,000.

I am so thankful for the four men who have been doing the driving for me now that I am able to attend church services. I was able to preach for the first time since my stroke at a revival meeting in Gladewater, Texas, for Pastor Zappa.

The money from the conference will be used for John and Romans projects in Guam. This amount will also let Dr. Hall cover some of BEST smaller projects in Southeast Asia. What would you do if you didn’t have a Bible?

Our main goal at BEST Missions is to put a copy of God’s Word into the hands of those who have never had a copy of God’s Word.
Please pray that I will soon be able to travel again. Please pray that I will find an SUV that I can haul my electric shooter around in.

Thank you for your continued support of BEST Missions. We love and appreciate you so much.

Into all the world,

Brother Bowen
