Smith Prayer & Praise - April 2006
Click below for some April prayer items. We appreciate your prayers!
"The fool says in his heart there is no God." Psalm 14:1
*See some recent pictures pictures under the "photos" secction.
Today as we think about fools, I think of the verse above, and how many people in Mexico and in the whole world it describes. How sad! People need to know that there IS a God and that He loves them. Thanks for your prayers as we share this message here in Mexico.
Praise God with us!
~ The men's conference that our church was responsible in planning went really well. Many of our church people got involved, and the Lord used ´pastor Antonio Muñoz to challenge the men who attended on February 25. Check out our website for some pictures.
~ As a result of the men's conference I am meeting with two men from our church who are struggling with different issues, and wanted an accountability partner. Pray for these men and other people that we interact with and disciple every week.
~ An opportunity to visit Lori's parents in Guatemala this month.
Please pray with us!
~ For our land trip to Guatemala. We hope to be crossing the border this Tuesday, but the border has been somewhat blocked by protests from hurricane Stan vicitims. Please pray for a safe trip and border crossings, and a great time with Lori's parents.
~ For our trantsition to the US for our home assignment later this year. We praise God that things are moving smoothly in that direction. Please let us know if you would like us to be at your church or missions conference anytime between August 2006 and June 2007.
~ That we would wrap up our ministry in Querétaro, Mexico well and leave the various ministies in good national hands.
~ For our support level. We have lost some support in recent weeks, but God is faithful to provide.
"Fools" in the world's eyes for the sake of Christ,
Bryan, Lori, Kendra, Tara, and Ben
