Missionary Charles Wesco (44), along with his wife and eight children, had been in the West African country of Cameroon for just twelve days. They were living their dream of serving the Lord among the people of this needy land. On October 18, 2018, Charles, his wife Stephanie, a son, and another missionary, who was driving them to the market to purchase supplies, were caught in the cross-fire of government security forces and rebels. A bullet passed through the car window and struck Charles in the head. He was quickly rushed to the hospital where he was later pronounced dead.
The tragedy would be more than most could bear, but while living this nightmare, the Wesco family believes that God has promised to work all things together for their good. They have decided to get better rather than bitter. Their testimony of continued faithfulness to God and His service is an inspiration to us all.
Corinth Baptist Church has invited Ben Sinclair, the missionary who was driving the car when Charles was shot, to be with us for services on May 31st – June 2nd. Ben will be sharing his testimony of what happened that day and how the Lord has used this tragedy to effect the lives of many for good. We invite you to come and be challenged by this story of courage and sacrifice. We have chosen the theme Counting The Cost.
