March 2010 Prayer Letter 

Dear Friends in Christ,

In our early ministry in Monterrey two brothers were saved: Francisco (Kiko) and Alfonso Sanchez both were young men living in a section of the city called Colonia Moderna. Kiko married a lovely Christian girl named Lola. Soon after Kiko surrendered to full time service. His wife worked as a maid so her husband could study in our Bible College. He is now the pastor of Gethsemane B. C. in Colonia Madera and Director our Bible College in Monterrey.

His brother also finished Bible College and surrendered to be a missionary to the Tarahumara Indians in the mountains of Chihuahua. He has served faithfully there for many years. His oldest son Imer graduated from the Bible College in Cd. Mante and is now working with his father Alfonso among the Indians. They have three different congregations. Recently in a special service in Creer, over 140 people were in attendance with four adults were saved.

The material for 70 DVBS has been ordered from “Mensaje de Vida” press for this year’s proiject. This is enough material to reach over 10,000 boys and girls with the gospel message. You can sponsor one Bible Club for just $50.00. We need your help in order to finance this project. We have to order the material by March in order to get it to the churches when the pastor’s meet for the annual pastor’s retreat the week after Easter Sunday. Postage is a real problem if we do not get this material on the busses when all the pastors meet.

Margie is recovering well from her surgery. The surgeon has released her. Further test are to be done by a doctor of Oncology. We will not get the results of these tests until March 10. At that time a determination to have chemotherapy will be made. Please remember us in your prayers.

Beloved we thank you for your faithfulness in prayer and financial support. God continues to bless with souls and in each church they report an increase in attendance since the weather is much better.

Yours for souls in Mexico.

Lonnie & Margie Smith
