The Smith Connection

We would greatly appreciate your prayers for us over the next several weeks. Here are three specific ways you can pray:

1. Please pray for the Vacation Bible School being held here at the New Birth Bible Church starting TODAY and through Friday. We are praying for 100 kids to attend and that many would hear and respond to the Gospel.

2. Please pray for our trip to the US from July 17 through August 23. Bryan has a week of team leader meetings in Dallas, then we will head north for a Smith family reunions in Chicago and Michigan and to speak in four churches in Indiana and Michigan. Our travels will then take us east to speak in two more churches and visit family and friends in Pennsylvania before we head back south to Dallas, and then on back to Queretaro. Please pray for safety over the many miles, especially in northern Mexico as the drug-related violence there has escalated this year. We would love to see many of you! Here is our church attendance/speaking schedule:

- Sun, July 25 evening (youth)...Pleasant View Bible Church, Warsaw, IN
- Sun, August 1 morning..........South Boston Bible Church, Lowell, MI
- Wed, August 4 evening..........Merson Church, Gobles, MI
- Sun, August 8 morning..........Chester Gospel Church, Charlotte, MI
- Wed, August 11 evening........Christian Fellowship Church, New Holland, PA
- Sun, August 15 all day..........Calvary Bible Church, Mount Joy, PA

3. Please pray for our Square Meters for Christ project for the church property purchase. In the month of June 2.5 more square meters were raised. Our goal is to raise 100% by September of this year. We currently have raised 112 of 378 square meters, 30% of the total. It seems like a big mountain, but we serve a BIG God! Please pray with us for this need.

Thanks for your faithful prayers! They do make a difference.

Serving HIM with You,
Bryan, Lori, Kendra, Tara, & Ben
