Camp
     August 1-5 saw nearly 150 campers and workers gathering for our first youth camp at the new premises on the Cannock Chase. Our recognition and thankfulness to Tom and Nathalie Wallace who had spent many months planning, shopping, and working to make it all possible and many others worked right up to the minute to complete the necessary work to make the camp ready.
     Comment has been made that it has been one of the best camps ever. We did not feel that we had to rush off or be accountable to a landlord. We were the landlord and we were all responsible to make it a success. Praise the Lord it was successful. We saw nine souls saved and many re-committing themselves to the Lord. Three took applications for Bible College and many more in the coming years plan on furthering their Christian education as a direct result of the ministry of camp. You can see photos of the camp on the websites listed.

College Information
     Baptist Bible College will open this Autumn for our first full academic year at the White House. We currently have three new students enrolled and have room for many more!
     Orientation will be on the 8th and 9th of September with classes beginning on the 12th. Our first two classes offered are Biblical Counselling taught by Bro. Morris Hull and Old Testament Survey taught by Bro. Damian Pickett.
     In July we received accreditation through the European Theological Seminary in Northern Ireland. This is our first step toward wider recognition for the college. Pray with us as we develop Baptist Bible College.

Coming and Going
     Barry and Pat Dunmire will arrive back in the UK on the 20th of August. They will be staying at the College initially and will be covering for Tom and Gail Gritts who will be stateside during October and November.
     Ferrell and Barbara Kearney will arrive around the 8th of September. They will be working in Nuneaton until December while Tom and Nathalie Wallace are taking furlough.
     Mary Herman will be teaching at the Bible College during October and November and is available for seminars. You can contact her through the Mission Office in Springfield.
     Keith and Mariella Mills arrived home the 27th of July.

Charities Commission
     Our work toward gaining recognition for the Fellowship with the Charities Commission is still going forward. We have been advised by our solicitor to present our documents to a company that does writing for such applications in order that we will not be using terms that may confuse or muddle our position. This has been prompted by the heighten awareness of foreign bodies in the UK and it also makes gaining recognition more important for the future of our works here in the UK.

Websites
     We now have this website for the BBFGB. It is in it’s infancy.
    Suggestions would be welcome. Please address these to Eric Simpson. You are welcome to send your church website address to be included as a link.
     The college also has a website. www.baptistbiblecollege.co.uk
Our current catalogue and schedule of classes can be viewed from here; also, an application can be downloaded. There are photos of the property, and from these two sites you can access the camp photos and report.

Autumn Meeting
     Our next fellowship meeting will be held in North Berwick, Scotland on Tuesday, October 11th. The Scotland meeting last year was a great blessing and the food was great! You are encouraged to attend!
