CAMDEN - On August 18, 2010, at 1:58 a.m. Joy Elizabeth Bausum, of Camden, met her Savior face to face. At the time of her death, she was serving in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, as a missionary with World Missions Ministry. During her 26 years of life, she preached the gospel of Jesus Christ, crucified and risen again, in 21 countries around the world.

Joy was a member of and missionary sent from Mt. Olivet Baptist Church.

Her life verse, James 1:27, says """Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after the widows the orphans in their distress, and to keep oneself unspotted b the world."""

She touched orphans all over the world and in the United States, and she touched the lives of countless others before the Lord called her home.

She is survived by grandparents, Burt and Zetta Brooks and George and Roberta Bausum; parents, Dean and Patty Bausum; sisters, Charity Bausum Martin, Sarah Bausum Morgan, and Rachel Marie Bausum; brother, Daniel Thomas Bausum; and 10 nieces and nephews.

"""...we do not grieve as people who have no hope...""" 1 Thessalonians 4:13.

Visitation will be held at the First Baptist Church of Lugoff, SC, from 11 a.m. to noon Saturday with a service following.

Joy visited our home in 2006 to celebrate our daughter's high school graduation. Kassie knew Joy from Teen Mania. Joy was a huge presence in our living room with kids from all over, yet she was powerful. I thought I would always see her and learn of her adventures, so I am shocked and heartbroken to lose her so soon. What an incredible young woman she was--full of the Lord Jesus Himself. She will bw greatly missed. With love, the Dantzler family

Dan and Patty, Suzanne's and my prayers are with you during this time in your life. Dan I remember you telling me about Joy and her missionary calling and was always impressed how she funded her own way while doing the Lord's work. Although I never had the pleasure of meeting her while you and I worked together, I know she had the best upbringing from two very special parents, You and Patty.

I know, from what you told me, that her calling was the most important thing in her life and it is only fitting that she is with our Lord Jesus Christ promoted to a higher level of service. If we could only learn from her example, this world would be a better place.

Loving you and Patty always,

Greg and Suzanne Brooks

Rev. 14:13And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.

I was sadden to hear of the passing of Ms. Bausum. May God bless the family of his servant.
