daily basis. Donation receipts, prayer letters, packages and other missionary mail

handled by the WMC staff each year.

The Lord has given BIMI a wonderfully dedicated maintenance staff. The people
who care for our landscaping are second to none. The individuals who oversee

the campus of the WMC for advice and guidance. This is a busy place but here the
