Chapel Times (2012)...

Memorial Day — Our Speaker for Memorial Day is Tom Harmon, from Owosso, Michigan. Tom has been travelling and preaching Christ for more than twenty years now. His clear admonitions and his use of memorized Scripture make him a favorite here at Barakel. You can be sure that what Tom preaches not only comes from a mind saturated with the written Word of God, but also comes through a life where he is constantly working on obedience to the Lord. He and Joyce have been married 40 years and have four children, all married with families of their own. Learn more at www.TDHarmon.com.

Labor Day — Our Speaker for Labor Day is Dr. John Barnett. John has been teaching the Word of God for more than 35 years of uninterrupted ministry. Born and raised in Michigan, he and his wife Bonnie have eight children, and now minister at Calvary Bible Church in Kalamazoo, MI. John has also travelled to more than 40 nations to teach the Scriptures. Learn more at www.dtbm.org/about-us/ and www.calvarybible.org/staff.
