Dr. Donald Setser has resigned effective 1/20/14 at 8:00 p.m. He presented his letter of resignation to Mrs. Ruslyn Case-Compton of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Lexington. Dr. Setser disagrees with the current leadership of FBAMC. Please keep Father Beiting Appalachian Mission Center and the Point of Hope Community in your prayers. Pray that Fr. Beiting's legacy will continue with proper leadership. Dr. Setser feels the current administration has strayed away from Fr. Beiting's legacy of empowering the impoverished throughout Appalachia.
