Dear Pastor and Friend,
My wife Kelly and I have a real burden for our country. Not because of our economy or because of our politics, but because our churches are losing their fire. Many of our Baptist churches are struggling and even are closing their doors. We have decided to do something to address this issue. Instead of closing doors we should be striving to build up their foundation and also planting new Independent Baptist Churches.
Kelly and I have been called of the Lord and sent out by the Cornerstone Baptist Church of Roanoke, VA, under the leadership of Pastor Jim Patterson, to help plant new churches as well as to encourage churches and pastors. We have also joined together with Baptist Ambassadors to America (BATA) to accomplish this calling. The vision of BATA Missionary Fellowship is in planting churches and strengthening existing churches through addressing a homeland need of revival. With revived churches and new thriving churches we will see more souls saved and be able to support even more missions around the world.
Statistics tell us that 50% of our Independent Baptist Church plants fail. I believe it is because of a lack of help and support. We have been called to give this help and support to the local Independent Baptist church. It is our calling to work as a team with Pastors, Churches and Church Planters to start new Baptist Churches. It is our goal to be fully supported so as to assist in the work of 4 to 6 new church plants each year. With 20 years of ministry experience will be able to help in the areas of music, soul winning, and in leadership training. We are trusting fully in God’s Word and the power of the Holy Spirit of God to accomplish the work.
Pray for us as we are scheduling meetings and raising support. Please consider having us for a meeting and supporting the Holtsclaw Family, Missionaries to America.
In His Service,
Dr. Timothy Holtsclaw
