This past month has passed fast as I tried to adjust to the added responsibilities of keeping books for the Missions account of the BMA of Missouri and tried to fit in a two week trip with some of our family.
When Bro. Danny and I talked of making the transition upon his resignation we decided to keep the Post Offie Box he had used in Florissant in hopes that it might make things a little less confusing for all involved.
That has not worked as smoothly as we had hoped. I had forgotten that he was also the Missions Director of the Meramec Association and their mail went to the same P.O. Box.
Bro. Johnny Dover is the Director of Missions for the Meramec Association and he has received some mail for the BMA of Missouri and I have received some mail for the Meramec Association. We have worked together forwarding those checks to the right Missions Account but we both feel that this confusion causes a delay in receiving and depositing your checks and that it would be best to close the P.O. Box and encourage our church treasurers to send the BMA of MO offerings to my address
and the Meramec offeringsto his address. Of course I will keep the P.O. Box open for at least two more months and give time for everyone to make the adjustments involved.
Please note that the checks and correspondence for Meramec Association Missions should be sent to:
Pastor John Dover
Friendship Baptist Church
630 N. Commercial Street
St. Clair, MO 63077
All correspondence and checks for BMA of MO Missions should be sent to:
James Hoffmann
176 Bear Creek Dr.
Wentzville, MO 63385
Treasurers who also send offerings to the Missouri Missionary Baptist Paper are encouraged to put both checks in one envelope and mail to Bro. Hoffmann at the address above. If you have any questions feel free to call me at 314-277-8644.
Thank you for your patience as we serve the Lord and His churches in Missouri.
