About Douglas

HCNRDougScofield15.jpg

Over the years, my efforts included Bible study and meditations for gaining a better understanding of Biblical things. Contemporary issues in the church and in the nation are seldom resolved for good purposes without using Biblical perspectives. To augment my ability in a biblical understanding, I study biblical Greek, as merely a seasoned novice, and I am beginning to learn ancient Hebrew.

My wife and I have ten children. She is the wife of my youth. Three sons and one daughter are married, and we have four grand-children. Most of my employment comes from self-employment as a handyman. Together by home schooling, gardening, raising goats, and a myriad of other ‘homesteading’ activities, our family lives by rural American standards, ‘out in the sticks’ of southern Oregon. We practice alternative home-health care and health maintenance.





Update, April 2016

Douglas congregates among ministers, with the several Elders of Record who elected Brother Gregory as their Minister of Record. Gregory is Minister of His Church at Summer Lake - HCSL.

Currently, Douglas carries responsibilities as Minister of Record of His Church at New River (HCNR), and he is trustee of Friends of His Church Missions (FHCM).
His Church at New River serves two Elders of Record.

In ministry, the Father often leads me to converse with those who have few they can trust. His desire is that His people should offer divine love to the lonely, destitute, imprisoned, sick, lame and blind. I pray for His grace that I might become a better vessel of His love, as I work and minister.
