Phil as Bible Study Teacher

(Dave Allen sent this in regarding Phil Beauford:)

I received calls asking for information regarding Phil Beauford's extensive Bible study ministry. The ones I am aware of were:
1. the Conshocken Boys Home of St. Francis and St. Joseph's Home for Boys which has since moved to Bensalem where he continued till his first cancer surgery and visited occasionally afterward upon recovery.
2. a Bible study with the Sudanese refuges in Upper Darby and later near St. Joe's;
3. a Bible study for his NJ family and
4. a Bible study within the Hispanic community in a home.
5. Our Brother's Place
6. and Ridgeway Shelters.


He was also a regular teacher for the 2nd Sunday and nursing home ministry of ACTS ministries. In his retirement he carried on as many as 13 Bible studies in a week mostly in homes. He was conscientious and dependable in his mission of sharing God's Word and his testimonay of God's salvation and goodness to him. He had a unigue gift of explaining the Bible and God's word to the poor in spirit in a winsome way. He had an awesome knowledge of God's Word and great memory for specific verses, considering that he came to Christ in his 40's.


He will surly be missed and leaves us big shoes to fill,

Dave Allen
