What's New:
What can I say except this has been a busy couple of months! Phyllis was diagnosed with
cancer in May. The doctor found 2 places on her left leg and one on the back of her arm. The
two on her leg were malignant. The good news is that this type of cancer is 95% curable when
found early. She also had surgery on her rotator cuff (shoulder) and is in a LOT of pain. Keep
her in your prayers....this is not an easy time for her. I will be staying home with her this most
of this month until she can take care of herself. Otherwise, May was great. We had seven
chapel services in four days in the Federal Prison system in Tucson, AZ. 17 men and women
came to Christ and is was a blessed four days. Red River, NM was awesome! The 3000 bibles
you helped purchase went fast. By Saturday night, 2800 had been given away. The last 200
were gone Sunday morning. PTL! Our biker service at Faith Mountain Fellowship was blessed
with many people praying at the alter. Praise God for His great grace and mercy toward us!

| Gary Smith Agape MPS Ministry 325-641-1888 OUR PURPOSE To share the good news among the motorcycling community. People of all walks of life ride motorcycles. Doctors, lawyers, businessmen and women, laborers. You name it, they all ride motorcycles. Motorcyclists have a unique bond and this bond gives our ministry an open door to come in and share Jesus' love for them. Whether it be at a motorcycle rally or just pulling into a gas station, the comaraderie is there. The Holy Spirit uses this connection to glorify God's kingdom. To share the good news to those who are incarcerated, whether it be a young ten year old boy or girl, or an eighty year old man or woman. Matthew 25:36 states, "I was in prison and you came to visit me". God loves these people, and he wants them to know that. This ministry makes an effort to share Jesus' love inside the walls of the prisons that society has built to incarcerate people, as well as the prisons we build to imprison ourselves. |

This is an 18,000 acre facility with a
beautiful lake in the center of the
prison. This photo was taken when
we rode over to the farm for the
weekend.
