12 May Staff Changes at Laurel Mission

Titus Boggs, director of Laurel Mission in Kentucky, reports on the departure of Burt and Tana Hey (right), who have served there for the past year, and the return of Titus’s son, Nathan. Titus writes:
“After serving nearly a year here at Laurel Mission, our dear friends, Burt and Tana Hey, feel the call of God to minister in a youth camp in Ohio. They were sent to us ‘for such a time as this,’ and have been a great help and blessing to Laurel Mission. We will miss them. Their leaving at the beginning of the busy season reminds me of the Olympic runner whose shoe came off at the starting line and he sang out the Kenny Rogers song, ‘You picked a fine time to leave me loose heel.’ How can we face the busy summer camp schedule without our support staff?

“In steps my right-hand man, Nathan Alvin Boggs!

“Nathan is a 22-year-old senior at Kentucky Mountain Bible College, majoring in missions. He had several employment opportunities for the summer months, but said, ‘Dad, do you need me to help you this summer?’ Of course my answer was, ‘Nathan, we would love to have you help us, but we need to pray about it and make sure this is God’s will.’ We did pray, and God has given his blessing.”
Since the mission lacks funds to pay for support staff, Titus is inviting churches and individuals to help support Nathan for the summer. Any checks should be made payable to Laurel Mission and sent to: Laurel Mission, 77 Cedar Chapel Road, Big Laurel, KY 40808-7611.
