Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: Paul and Debbie are serving as pastor and secretary at Bible Baptist Church of Newark, Ohio, just east of Columbus. Here is their story of the Lord's blessings in their lives. They grew up about five miles away from each other on the edge of Des Moines and attended the same junior high and high school. The Lord saved them as teenagers in 1970 - Debbie while attending Grandview Park Baptist Church under the ministry of Pastor Harold Scholes and Paul at Altoona Regular Baptist Church under Pastor Eldon Weaver. Paul graduated from Faith Baptist Bible College in 1976 and Debbie completed one year at FBBC and then earned a degree at Des Moines Area Community College. Married in 1974, Debbie also was awarded by Faith with a PhT (Putting Hubby Through!) degree. Paul has since earned a Master of Arts in Biblical Studies and a Doctorate in Religious Studies both from Trinity Theological Seminary. In 1990 he became a counselor with the Association of Certified Biblical Counselors (formerly NANC). After graduating from FBBC, they moved to Findlay, Ohio, to serve with First Baptist Church as their assistant pastor. During their fifteen years there, the Lord blessed them with four boys and the privilege of working with Pastor Fred Crown, who the Lord used to revitalize churches in Illinois, Indiana and in Ohio. Later they worked with Pastor Richard Pettitt who had been the Deputation Secretary for Evangelical Baptist Missions. They served together for nearly ten years. Pastor Pettitt greatly influenced the Reimers regarding missions, and he also helped lead the establishment and growth of BCP as a Council member. Since moving to Newark in 1991, the Reimers' sons have grown up, married local girls and blessed them with ten grandchildren who, all by the grace of God, still live in the area and are actively serving Him at BBC. Bible Baptist Church, begun in 1958, was in the early years led by two FBHM missionaries and has supported home and foreign missionaries its entire history. Among its missionary families they have had the privilege of supporting five BCP families: Les and Betty Newell, Kevin and Kenyata Maki, David and Melissa Whitcher, Tim and Susan Heinrich, and Wayne and Shanna Dale. Paul and Debbie count it a privilege to have been able to serve the Lord together since their teen years. Unless they are ministering to the church family and enjoying their immediate family, Paul is serving as an associate chaplain with the Licking County Prosecutors Office and a bugler for the Veterans Alliance. For the past ten years he has served on the Baptist Church Planters' Council. They look forward to serving the BCP retirees in any way they can.
