March 17th - March 21st Pocahontas Baptist Church/Pocahontas, Arkansas

   Well, I went out soul-winning with Pastor Ken Pennington today in Pocahontas, AR.
   Brother Pennington is the founding pastor of the 18 month old Pocahontas Baptist Church. The sending church is Jonesboro Baptist Church, Pastor Gary Winters of Jonesboro, AR. We knocked many doors and I led a young mother of 2 children to the Lord. Please pray she will attend church this Sunday. I am thankful this new Christian has a church to attend. Thank you Brother Pennington and Brother Winters.

Dear Pastor and Church Family,

What a transformation from 36 years of Pastoring to traveling and preaching in a different church almost every week. One of the great blessings is gaining so many new friends. We’re thankful the Lord has kept us busy with a pretty full schedule.

In January and February I preached in churches in Alabama, Kansas, Missouri, Florida, and Arkansas. Two of these meetings were Missions Conferences where 2 surrendered for the mission field, 6 were saved, along with a number of other decisions for various things. The Lord’s blessings are certainly more than can be numbered. We also want to thank Him for His wonderful grace and His traveling mercies.

My plan is to be working with churches in Arkansas in March and April. There are several new churches that could use some help and encouragement, and I believe the Dear Lord would have us do what we can to assist them. If you are aware of a special need, please let me know.

Please pray for our upcoming trip to New England. Our plans are to be there from May through the middle of November, except for a brief trip back in September to preach a Missions conference in Kansas. We already have several missions conferences scheduled in New England, which we’re greatly looking forward to.

One of our objectives this summer is to assist in planting a new church in Worcester, Massachusetts. To do this, we need to identify a couple with a church planting, pioneering spirit to be the pastor. If you know of anyone that might have this kind of desire or calling, please let me know.

We love what we are doing and thank the Lord for the privilege of serving Him in this way. You are a great part of our life and we value your love, friendship and prayers.

Yours for Souls and Church Planting,

Pastor Smith and Sharron
