Terry Baxter
On January 1, 1996, Rev. Terry Baxter, his wife
Debby and their seven children joined
International Messengers based in Clear Lake,
Iowa. They came with the purpose of launching a
church renewal and evangelistic crusade ministry
called Messengers of Hope.
Terry has a degree
in Evangelism from Moody Bible Institute and has
served as senior pastor of four churches over a
period of nineteen years. Ordained in the
Evangelical Free Church, he is an anointed
speaker and has ministered in numerous
interdenominational renewal and evangelistic
services across North America and Eastern
Europe.
God is using
Messengers of Hope as a catalyst to bring
revival and awakening to churches and
communities across North America. There are
abundant testimonies of people set free from sin
and bitterness, marriages strengthened,
congregations reconciled and entire communities
hearing the gospel through this ministry. To God
be the glory, great things He has done! |

Pastor Steve Corbett
"I trusted Christ as my Savior May 13, 1968 in
my dorm room at the University of Illinois.
Although I had been exposed to religion
(confirmation in the Methodist Church, Billy
Graham Crusades, a David Wilkerson Crusade and
Young Life) I never understood that a person
must trust the Person and the Work of Christ.
Don Clark, a Navigator, presented the gospel to
me, I believed, and Don began to disciple me.
I continued working with the Navigators from
May, 1968 to November, 1972. I was
baptized by immersion in the Twin Cities Bible
Church in Urbana, Illinois."
He applied to Dallas Seminary - and no where
else - because the school had a reputation for a
strenuous education in Biblical languages.
He was accepted and completed his Master of
Theology degree in 1977. We went on to
complete a Doctors in Ministry degree in 1986.
He is currently serving as the Pastor of Grace
Bible Church in Portage, Wisconsin. He is
married to Rita and has three adult children:
Eric, Cari and Kati. |

Pastor Anthony "Tony" Fleming
I'm
very talkative, it is actually something I have
been trying to work on. I love Christ, he has
changed my life and I have seen thousands of
others that can say the same. He is the
cornerstone of my life. I left the emptiness of
my life behind and have found fulfillment in
him.
I love playing tennis but don't play as much
anymore. I love also weightlifting but I have
run out of time to do that as much as well.
I work for a ministry as a web developer
and I am working for other ones as well. I may
also be starting soon as a web consultant.
Pastor Fleming is
currently working with youth through Faith
Christian Church in Mauston, Wisconsin. He
is married to Jessica Fleming. |

1998 where they became active church members.
Pastor Tim has been
in ministry since 1993 and has been on staff at
Fox River Baptist since 2000. He is new to
the Crescent Lake Bible Camp family but comes
highly recommended by our partners in ministry. |

Crossroads Medical
Outreach
Across the street or around the world, Crossroad
Medical Outreach will be there. From Day
Camps for youth with severe medical conditions
to residential camping and counseling, we offer
an outreach to those who are not able to attend
a traditional camping program. With an
emphasis on recreation, education and
counseling, we work to change lives everywhere
there is a need. |

Imagine a camp that is fully
climate-controlled, one that features an indoor
archery range, an indoor climbing wall, an
indoor environmental center and much more!
Imagine being able to work with campers of all
backgrounds, ages and abilities. Now you
will have a small idea of what this project is
and what it will mean to thousands of youth who
- for one reason or another - were never
able to go to camp. Now they can! |
