Christmas pictures :) & Happy New Year 2014

 

**********************************

 

Dear family and friends,

 

It's hard to believe that Christmas, 2013 was just 'yesterday' and we're looking at the year 2013 being 'yesterday' in the next few days.

 

We have SO many things to thank the Lord for as we look back over the days and months of 2013.  We spent part of this year in the United States, on the second half of our itineration/deputation, and it was wonderful seeing so many of you, sharing with believers what God is doing in our part of the world and what we are believing God for in this coming year of 2014.

 

Having the birth of our 9th grandchild William Ray Fader, to our youngest daughter Krista and her husband Caleb, occur in December certainly makes the details of Christ's birth more poignant.  However, Christ who came in humility as a babe, will come again as the majestic King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

 

Everything points to the fact that the time for His return is near yet there is still much to be done.  We see and hear the disarray our world is in and the tragedy that seems to abound in every place, however, behind the scenes God is working, accomplishing His purposes and people from all nations, tribes and tongues are coming to find Jesus as Lord and Savior. Matt 4:16 says, "The people who sat in darkness have seen a great light, and upon those who sat in the region and shadow of death Light has dawned."

 

Our prayer is that until He comes we would be faithful to point and lead those in darkness to the Babe/King, the Redeemer of all mankind!

 

Thank you for all you do to enable us to fulfill His calling.....we are very cognizant of the fact that without all of you our work would be much more difficult.

 

Blessings for a wonderful 2014.  MARANATHA!!

 

David and Beckie Smith

New bundle of Joy! Dec. 13th 2013

Dear Family and Friends

Merry Christmas!

 

Good News! William Ray Fader. 7lbs6oz. 20.5in :)

Parents: Kaleb & Krista Fader ( daughter who lives in Chicago) This make #9 grandkid now.

WOW! More pictures to come in a few days.

 

Beckie was able to be there for the birth and help Krista.

I was able to have a great Christmas dinner at the oldest British club in Kenya, but a little disappointed when they came out with the cold turkey they had cooked the night before and serve it cold from the fridge.

Well we must be thankful in all things. God is Good.

Intercession needed....

 

Dear friends:

 

This morning, we were given some concerning information pertaining to the East African Coast.  A pastor, Suleiman Abdul* told us that he was contacted by a person who tracks terrorist chatter. He warned the pastor to take extra care because he, along with other pastors who chose to "come out from among them and be separate", have been targeted.  According to this person, thousands of shillings have been offered as awards to persons who will take it upon themselves to take the lives of these followers of Jesus Christ.

 

We need intercessors to cover these men and their families in prayer.....that they might have strength, wisdom, peace and power in the Spirit as they faithfully serve the Lord in the ministries He has called them.....and that they may see an exponential harvest in their fields of labor.   May the enemy's desire to destroy and create havoc be stopped cold and that above all, the name of JESUS may receive glory and be lifted up!

 

We praise the Lord for the reports we've heard of mighty moves of God in outlying areas, and that always ratchets up the level of spiritual warfare.  PLEASE lift these brethren to the Lord during these difficult days.

 

Blessings,

David and Beckie

Police react at the scene of angry protests in King'orani area that left four people dead and seven others injured October 4, 2013. Calm returned to Mombasa October 5, 2013. LABAN WALLOGA 

By GALGALO BOCHA
More by this Author

Calm has returned to Mombasa after Friday chaos ignited by the killing of a fiery Muslim preacher Sheikh Ibrahim Umar Rogo and three others on Thursday night.

Mombasa County police boss Robert Kitur said normalcy had returned and residents were going on with their daily activities in Majengo and Kisauni, areas that were worst hit by the protests that saw four people die.

“We are back to normal life but we are not taking chances,” Mr Kitur told the Nation on phone.

Contingents of anti-riot officers are keeping vigil around Masjid Musa mosque in Majengo, the epicentre of the violent riots.

Mombasa Deputy Governor Hazel Katana called for peace and peaceful co-existence between Muslim and Christian in the coastal city.

She said failure by police to take proactive measures led to the torching of the Salvation Army Worship Centre.

“We need all places of worship including mosques and churches to be properly secured by our security agencies,” she said.

Businesses opened on Saturday in the Central Business District.

Public transport vehicles were back on the road.

 

In Summary

  • Mombasa Deputy Governor Hazel Katana urges peace and peaceful co-existence between Muslim and Christian in the coastal city.

 

On a personal note:

 

 

Beckie & I returned to Kenya on September  22, 2013 after a year of deputation in USA. God has been so good to allow us to return to AFRICA where he has called us. Beckie is back in full swing with the breast cancer awareness for the month of October even though some of the activities have been cancelled due to the unrest in the country.  In November Beckie will go for a few weeks to Chicago for the birth of our youngest daughter Krista first child. This will make it #9 grandchildren in the clan. Wow, we are really becoming AFRICAN.

 

David has met with many of the pastors and in the Baraza (monthly Pastor’s meeting ) has found out that we now have 63 churches here in the coastal region.  Praise God for the continual growth along the coast of Kenya. In the attachment above is a picture of the Dziripe church that is needing our help of $6,000 for a roof. The rains have started and they have been working on this church to get it up this far. If you feel you can help please send to class 46 Dziripe church. Please see the information below for the account # and donation instructions.

 

This week we have planned for former friend & missionary, Oscar Johnson to come and minister to our pastors and wives. Please pray for a special move of the Spirit.  With all the problems that have been going on in Kenya we thank God that the church has turned to prayer. We have heard that several prayer groups from different churches are walking the streets praying for peace to return and that the demonic forces of killings and riots will stop.

We are believing God for mighty things. This past furlough, as we have traveled, we have had several confirmations that this term in Kenya we will see many brought to the master. “If my people will humble themselves and pray”……  Prayer is the key. By God’s grace, may the Church stand strong and GROW in the face of persecution!

Permission to extend our departure until August in order to meet our Budget (listed below)

 

We need your help to leave on our rescheduled departure date in August 2013

God has been so faithful for the past 40 years and by faith our remaining funds will be in for us to depart in August. Africa has a way of pulling at one's heart, epsecially when you see all the needy lost people for whom Jesus died. When we remember the Words of Jesus

'I am going away but i am coming back',  we cannot help but think about those who need to hear the good news of Jesus, the only one who can give them 'abundant Life'.

 

There is something that you can do to HELP!

Look at the budget below and pray and do something:

Europe Today

A MUST READ FOR EVERYONE AND PASS TO EVERYONE YOU CAN.

 

EUROPE TODAY

Geert Wilders is a Dutch Member of Parliament.

 

In a generation or two, the US will ask itself: Who lost Europe?'

Here is the speech by Geert Wilders, Chairman, Party for Freedom, the Netherlands , at the Four Seasons, New York , introducing an Alliance of Patriots and announcing the Facing Jihad Conference in Jerusalem .

Dear friends,

Thank you very much for inviting me.

 

I come to America with a mission. All is not well in the old world. There is a tremendous danger looming, and it is very difficult to be optimistic. We might be in the final stages of the  Islamization of Europe. This not only is a clear and present danger to the future of Europe itself, it is a threat to America and the sheer survival of the West. The United States as the last bastion of Western civilization, facing an Islamic Europe.

 

First I will describe the situation on the ground in Europe . Then, I will say a few things about Islam. To close I will tell you about a meeting in Jerusalem .

 

The Europe you know is changing.

 

You have probably seen the landmarks. But in all of these cities, sometimes a few blocks away from your tourist destination, there is another world. It is the world of the parallel society created by Muslim mass-migration.

 

All throughout Europe a new reality is rising: entire Muslim neighborhoods where very few indigenous people reside or are even seen. And if they are, they might regret it. This goes for the police as well. It's the world of head scarves, where women walk around in  figureless tents, with baby strollers and a group of children. Their husbands, or slaveholders if you prefer, walk three steps ahead. With mosques on many street corners. The shops have signs you and I cannot read. You will be hard-pressed to find any economic activity. These are Muslim ghettos controlled by religious fanatics. These are Muslim neighborhoods, and they are mushrooming in every city across Europe . These are the building-blocks for territorial control of increasingly larger portions of Europe , street by street, neighborhood by neighborhood, city by city.

 

There are now thousands of mosques throughout Europe . With larger congregations than there are in churches. And in every European city there are plans to build super-mosques that will dwarf every church in the region. Clearly, the signal is: we rule.

 

Many European cities are already one-quarter Muslim: just take Amsterdam , Marseille and Malmo in Sweden . In many cities  the majority of the under-18 population is Muslim. Paris is now surrounded by a ring of Muslim neighborhoods. Mohammed is the most popular name among boys in many cities.

 

In some elementary schools in Amsterdam the farm can no longer be mentioned, because that would also mean mentioning the pig, and that would be an insult to Muslims.

 

Many state schools in Belgium and Denmark only serve halal food to all pupils. In once-tolerant Amsterdam gays are beaten up almost exclusively by Muslims. Non-Muslim women routinely hear 'whore, whore'. Satellite dishes are not pointed to local TV stations, but to stations in the country of origin.

 

In France school teachers are advised to avoid authors deemed offensive to Muslims, including Voltaire and Diderot; the same is increasingly true of Darwin . The history of the Holocaust can no longer be taught because of Muslim sensitivity.

 

In England sharia courts are now officially part of the  British legal system. Many neighborhoods in France are no-go areas for women without head scarves. Last week a man almost died after being beaten up by Muslims in Brussels , because he was drinking during the Ramadan.

 

Jews are fleeing France in record numbers, on the run for the worst wave of anti-Semitism since World War II. French is now commonly spoken on the streets of Tel Aviv and Netanya , Israel . I could go on forever with stories like this. Stories about Islamization.

 

A total of fifty-four million Muslims now live in Europe . San Diego University recently calculated that a staggering 25 percent of the population in Europe will be Muslim just 12 years from now. Bernhard Lewis has predicted a Muslim majority by the end of this century.

 

Now these are just numbers. And the numbers would not be threatening if the Muslim-immigrants had a strong desire to assimilate. But there are few signs of that. The Pew Research Center  reported that half of French Muslims see their loyalty to Islam as greater than their loyalty to France . One-third of French Muslims do not object to suicide attacks. The British Centre for Social Cohesion reported that one-third of British Muslim students are in favor of a worldwide caliphate. Muslims demand what they call 'respect'. And this is how we give them respect. We have Muslim official state holidays.

 

The Christian-Democratic attorney general is willing to accept sharia in the Netherlands if there is a Muslim majority. We have cabinet members with passports from Morocco and Turkey .

 

Muslim demands are supported by unlawful behavior, ranging from petty crimes and random violence, for example against ambulance workers and bus drivers, to small-scale riots. Paris has seen its uprising in the low-income suburbs, the banlieus. I call the perpetrators 'settlers'. Because that is what they are. They do not come to integrate into our  societies; they come to integrate our society into their Dar-al-Islam. Therefore, they are settlers.

 

Much of this street violence I mentioned is directed exclusively against non-Muslims, forcing many native people to leave their neighborhoods, their cities, their countries. Moreover, Muslims are now a swing vote not to be ignored.

 

The second thing you need to know is the importance of Mohammed the prophet. His behavior is an example to all Muslims and cannot be criticized. Now, if Mohammed had been a man of peace, let us say like Ghandi and Mother Theresa wrapped in one, there would be no problem. But Mohammed was a warlord, a mass murderer, a pedophile, and had several marriages - at the same time. Islamic tradition tells us how he fought in battles, how he had his enemies murdered and even had prisoners of war executed. Mohammed himself slaughtered the Jewish tribe of Banu Qurayza. If it is good for Islam, it is good. If it is bad for  Islam, it is bad.

 

Let no one fool you about Islam being a religion. Sure, it has a god, and a here-after, and 72 virgins. But in its essence Islam is a political ideology. It is a system that lays down detailed rules for society and the life of every person. Islam wants to dictate every aspect of life. Islam means 'submission'. Islam is not compatible with freedom and democracy, because what it strives for is sharia. If you want to compare Islam to anything, compare it to communism or national-socialism, these are all totalitarian ideologies.

 

Now you know why Winston Churchill called Islam 'the most retrograde force in the world', and why he compared Mein Kampf to the Quran.

Many in Europe argue in favor of abandoning Israel in order to address the grievances of our Muslim minorities. But if Israel were, God forbid, to go down, it would not bring any solace to the West. It would not  mean our Muslim minorities would all of a sudden change their behavior, and accept our values. On the contrary, the end of Israel would give enormous encouragement to the forces of Islam. They would, and rightly so, see the demise of Israel as proof that the West is weak, and doomed. The end of Israel would not mean the end of our problems with Islam, but only the beginning. It would mean the start of the final battle for world domination. If they can get Israel , they can get everything. So-called journalists volunteer to label any and all critics of Islamization as a 'right-wing extremists' or 'racists'. In my country, the Netherlands , 60 percent of the population now sees the mass immigration of Muslims as the number one policy mistake since World War II. And another 60 percent sees Islam as the biggest threat. Yet there is a greater danger than terrorist attacks, the scenario of America as the last man standing. The lights may go out in Europe  faster than you can imagine. An Islamic Europe means a Europe without freedom and democracy, an economic wasteland, an intellectual nightmare, and a loss of military might for America - as its allies will turn into enemies, enemies with atomic bombs. With an Islamic Europe, it would be up to America alone to preserve the heritage of Rome, Athens and Jerusalem .

 

Dear friends, liberty is the most precious of gifts. My generation never had to fight for this freedom, it was offered to us on a silver platter, by people who fought for it with their lives. All throughout Europe, American cemeteries remind us of the young boys who never made it home, and whose memory we cherish. My generation does not own this freedom; we are merely its custodians. We can only hand over this hard won liberty to Europe 's children in the same state in which it was offered to us. We cannot strike a deal with mullahs and imams. Future generations would never forgive us. We  cannot squander our liberties. We simply do not have the right to do so.

 

We have to take the necessary action now to stop this Islamic stupidity from destroying the free world that we know.

Please take the time to read and understand what is written here, Please send it to every free person that you know, it is so very important.

Your time is UP!

 

 

David & Beckie Smith

220 Solon Rd

Waxahachie, Tx 75165

 

Dear Friends,

 

Yesterday the call came through as Beckie & I were traveling from Missiouri to Texas & I was told, "Your deputation time is up and you are scheduled to go back to Kenya on MAY 9th.  Your medical clearance is in but your budget is not met, projects are not funded yet, and your monthly faith commitments are needing to come in before you return."

 

So I am sending this letter to appeal to our friends to pray and possibly help us with the urgent needs.

 

In my devotions this morning God seem to be reminding me in Matt 21:22 "And whatsoever thing you ask in prayer believing, YOU WILL RECEIVE."

 

Then my thoughts went to my dear friend and colleague Glen Ford, when he told us in a mission convention of the time in Tanzania that he was needing house rent money, in fact things were so desperate that they were going to have to leave the field if funds didn't come in. Glen lived on the slopes of Mt. Kilamanjaro in Moshi, Tanzania and he was walking in the cool of the day & was praying and crying out to God, reminding the Lord of their desperate need. He was totally alone as he walked and prayed and suddenly he began to notice something blowing in the wind down from the mountain. Tanzania shilling notes were coming down the mountain right to him and he picked them all up and counted it & it was enough to pay the rent with just a little left over. Wow, how that story built my faith.

 

Now how can you help? Please join with us in praying and asking in faith and then ask God how you can help the Smith's get back to Kenya? Could you do a extra offering? Could you give a little more & help us get the signed faith commitments that are needed?

 

How can you help? #1 Send a offering to:  Assemblies of God World Missions

                                                                           1445 Boonville Ave.

Please believe with us today that the mountain spoken of in Matt 21: 21 will come down and cast into the sea. Our God is bigger than this need and owns the cattle of a thousand hills.

Dear Friends and Family,

My father Walter B. Smith (98) went to be with the Lord at 7:00pm last night in Sedan, Kansas where my sister, Sharon Alexander, lives. Our dad has had a good long life and we are thankful that he did not suffer much in the hours preceding his death. We are grateful for the prayers of God’s people as His grace has lifted and sustained us.

 

Dad’s greatest desire was spreading the Good News of Jesus. In lieu of flowers, the family would greatly appreciate if memorials would be sent to:
