We have been serving with with Baptist International Missions, Inc. (BIMI) since 2001 and are so grateful for their service to our family. However, as we follow God’s leading in ministry we believe that it is wise to leave BIMI and pursue an agency that will enable us to continue working closely with our home church, as well as with expanding missionary and national partners in South Africa.

Therefore, after seeking the Lord and with counsel from our mentors, Pastor Brent Baughman and Dr. Don Forrester, we are resigning from BIMI on July 31, 2015 and joining Biblical Ministries Worldwide (www.biblicalministries.org). Biblical Ministries missionaries have been working in South Africa since 1976 and have a strong reputation for teaching sound Baptist doctrine, practicing conservative ministry philosophy, and establishing churches that have been transitioned to national leadership. For thirty-five years the McCrum family has been in South Africa and my parents and we have enjoyed working with missionaries with Biblical Ministries Worldwide; some of whom were trained by my father. We believe that BMW is in tune with New Testament principles for evangelism and church planting in cross-cultural ministry, and will serve our family well as we continue to minister in our cultural context. We want to assure you that we will continue to establish Baptist churches in the same doctrine and philosophy for which we have represented you these many years.

Thank you for your faithfulness to the Lord and for partnering with our family. If you have questions about this transition please contact us, or Pastor Brent Baughman (423 432 6525) at our home church, Stanley Heights Baptist Church.

May God be with you,

David N. McCrum
