Dear Pastor,

    Greetings from New England! Presently we are in northern New Hampshire preaching for and helping my good friend, Pastor Dana Hoyt for a few weeks. We have had five adults saved in the last two weeks, plus a good number of children saved in Bible School. Praise the Lord! I have had the privilege of leading a little boy and girl’s mom and dad to Christ last Saturday. The children attended Bible School faithfully all week. That is like a little heaven on earth. On Sunday morning we had a near record attendance of 65. For northern New England, that’s a big church.

    I am sure by now most of you know that I have retired from pastoring, but I have no desire to retire from preaching and serving my blessed Lord. This is just to let you know that my wife and I are doing wonderful. It is our desire to be a blessing wherever God may lead us. We are especially interested in HELPING CHURCHES PLANT CHURCHES in the good old USA. We will be helping Fairview Baptist Church in Kansas City, Kansas the first part of September to plant a new Fundamental Baptist Church. How exciting! As of this moment, we have scheduled a number of missions conferences through the end of this year and into 2010. Also, we will be spending October and November in Tanzania, Africa, teaching in two Bible Institute sessions, organizing a new church, preaching a missions conference, and holding several tent meetings in surrounding villages. As you can see, we are not retiring.

     We are pleased to be sent out under the authority of Heritage Baptist Temple in Little Rock, Arkansas, where Bro. Paul Davis is currently serving as Interim Pastor. Please let me know if I can help you in any way becuase I appreciate all of you very much and send special greetings to all my preacher friends in Arkansas. If you would like to contact me by phone or e-mail; my cell number is (501)350-6566 or Sharron’s cell number is (501)351-6566. My e-mail address is dwsmith1947@aol.com.

     I look forward to hearing from you soon. We would be grateful if you would put us on your church prayer list.

Thanks for your friendship,

Bro. David and Sharron Smith
