Wisconsin minister and farmer leads double life
Rev. Edgar L Killam preaches at a Lake Geneva Baptist church then works on his 200 acre Wisconsin farm. He edits papers, runs a dairy with 50 cows, and built a new barn with modern milking for 40 cows. Born in Michigan, he studied at Kalamazoo college and Crozer Theological seminary. The small Geneva congregation keeps him as part time pastor while he drives church progress and plans a new parsonage.
