August 2019 || Ministry Update

Dear Family and Friends,

OUR AUGUST UPDATE is ready as we transitioned into a different home and are ready for our next ministry opportunity! We are rejoicing over so many "God Things" to report, but first thank you for your faithful prayers, love and support. God is using you and your prayers, and we want to let you know a few of those ways within this letter.

REJOICE POINTS:
1. God greatly blessed camp in Wyoming, IL! We were able to plant and water, and after we left the camp we heard of one young man trusting Christ as his Saviour! Hallelujah!
2. God gave us 6 more meetings since our last letter! 6 more in 2019 taking the total meeting count for 2019 to 49! Praise the Lord!
3. God gave us 1 more supporter! This takes our total monthly support to $455! God is sooo good!
4. God allowed us to rent out our home to the new Pastor of Crossroads Baptist Church! Wisdom for our housing situation was asked during our last prayer letter. Right after we sent the letter, the answer came! God's timing is perfect as our schedule allowed us to be home to make a housing transition. We are currently living in Princeville Baptist Church's mission house-the house we started our marriage in! Praise the Lord for Princeville Baptist Church being willing to allow us use of this house!

Until further notice, our new address is in care of: Princeville Baptist Church
235 W. Douglas St.
Princeville, IL 61559

2. We were surprised with a new monthly supporter...God is so good!


3. Rachel and Lydia baking cookies together for the first time as they settle in to our "new" home!


4. The Daily Preacher’s Pushes are back! We start the Book of Luke soon!

Please pray for these requests in August/September:

1. August 25th-28th - Victory Baptist Church - Anniversary Revival Services Osawatomie, KS. 

2. September’s Preaching Schedule (view the calendar online).

3. The blessed opportunity to marry my youngest brother - 9.21.2019.

4. God to bless with monthly support and future meetings- according to His will.

5. God to continue to touch Rhoda (our 2005 Toyota Prius) as she has turned 350,000...we are asking God for many more thousands of miles, but we are also praying and setting aside money as able for our future vehicle needs.

AS ALWAYS please continue to pray for souls to be saved and revival to be stirred wherever the Lord leads us ... WE LOVE YOU!

The Smith Family

Three "Musts" For Missions Revival

  Three "Musts" For Missions Revival I'm really excited about getting in on everything God has in store for us this week at our 2016 Missions Revival, "REACHING THE NATIONS," and it's my desire to prepare you to be ready for our missions revival this week by giving you the "Three 'Musts' For Missions Revival." I'm so thankful for the many who have volunteered their services in many different ways (food prep, basket items, decorating, 5K sign up, etc), but there is still a few things that need to be done.

Get them in order now. Let's search our hearts and our lives. We'll find out the meeting will be "that much better" if we are where we need to be spiritually, which is, in right standing before God with no deceitful...

Dear Family and Friends... The Work of our December ministry was exciting and extremely blessed by the Lord!  Our hearts are full, and we are marveling over our Saviour's birth! We are rejoicing over so many things to report...first, thank you for your faithful prayers, love and support. NOTES:  We ARE CURRENTLY in Alaska visiting family and ministering the Word of God through the first week of February. Please take note that any support sent by mail may take a little longer to be deposited. Also, our envelopes need to be reprinted due to an old address on them. If you don’t know it already, please take note of the new address for correspondence on our website. We will attempt to produce an annual “report” newsletter after the first of the year, but this may not be accomplished until we return from Alaska the first part of February. We shall see! REJOICE POINTS: 1. We were gifted a trip to Branson!  We got to meet and fellowship with the lovely people of Calvary Baptist C...
