Brother Doug and his family
Brother and Sister Carragher were both raised in Roman Catholic families. They were married on October 8, 1983. Brother Carragher was saved in El Paso, TX on October 15, 1993 while attending the U.S. Army Sergeants Major Academy. The following Sunday, the family attended a Baptist Church and has never not belonged to a church since that day. Sister Carragher was saved July 29, 1994 in Jacksonville, VA. Douglas, Daniel and Deborah join Brother Doug as he travels to raise financial support and awareness of Military Missions.
PS 34:6 This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him and saved him out of all his troubles.
1 JN 5:13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.
Brother Doug's Current Support Level
This graphic shows Brother Doug's current support level. As good churches sign up to support this military missionary, the graphic will change accordingly.
Goal
The Carragher Family desires to present to every soldier, sailor, airman and marine with the Gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. They will do this by coming up along side of Independent Fundamental Baptist Local Churches, recruiting missionaries to serve in current churches, starting single soldier support centers, planting churches where no good testimony is found and providing an on-line Army founded Bible College where credits will transfer to good institutions.
