Pastor Keith Shearer (pictured) of the New Beginnings Grace Brethren Church, Myerstown, Pennsylvania, is in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, this weekend ministering on the LSU campus and with a group from his church which is seeking to start a church in Baton Rouge.
Shearer, who is the FGBC Moderator this year, went directly from the southeast Focus Retreat in Florida to Baton Rouge, where he was scheduled to participate in a teaching and discussion on creationism and evolution on the university campus.
In addition, he will be teaching on marriage and the family and helping to make contacts with families from his church who are committed to planting a church in Baton Rouge, ministering particularly to hurricane survivors.
