Missionaries to Mexico

June 2009

Dear Friends in Christ:
During May there has been much said concerning graduations and commencement addresses. All are aware of Notre Dame and their invitation to President Obama. There was the graduation Fellowship in Springfield and the many graduates from this great school. Our other schools had good commencement service, graduating student.

Here in Mexico there were several graduating services from out Bible Colleges. Of course Cd. Mante is number one. Bro. Larry and Sharron are doing a great job in Baptist Bible Institute. Several of the graduates were from our churches. Bro. Rick Bevin had a great graduation service in Allende, N. L. Several received degrees from LBU in Shreveport. The Monterrey Bible College under the direction of the local pastors had their graduation.
The Anchor Theology Seminary (ANCLA) Which we are overseeing to the Spanish Speaking world graduate FIVE students, two received PhD’s, two master degrees and one BA. We also had FIVE new students enroll.

I was able to help a pastor in California, in a very heavy Spanish area, establish a training center using the material from ANCLA. No doubt there will be many graduates from this training center, and many more that will be encouraged in the Word of God.

On the personal side: Lonnie Jr.’s son Brian and wife Alison had a new baby boy. This makes our FIFTH great-grand child. We are greatly blessed of the Lord to see our third generation. Pray for our family as we continue to serve the Lord here in Mexico.

Beloved, once again we wish to thank you for your faithfulness in prayer and financial support for our lives and ministry. Souls continue to be saved and believers build up in the Lord.
Yours for souls in Mexico,

Lonnie & Margie Smith
