 | | Thank you for all that give to meet the need for Bibles. Unfortunately, this is one of the many needs we are not able to help because of a shortage in funding. This is Pastor Joseph Chivatsi's Church in Kenya and he is in need of 30 Bibles. For an average price of $5 we can deliver a Bible in the hands of a needy soul like these in Kenya. Just think your spare change could change lives. Please Pray if the Lord would use You to be one of our Funding Partners. |

| Because He First Loved You |
When February comes around it is hard to not think of Valentines day as the stores are filled with heart shaped candy and flowers. When I think of my lovely wife and how much I love her I am reminded of when we met. She caught my eye and after starting a conversation I invited her to an event with my Sunday School Class. One date led to another and before you know it, I was head over heals in love. My Bride to be was not as quick to fall in love with me but the love I felt for her caused me to pursue her. I would call her, continue to spend time with her, and try to express to her what I was feeling. After time she fell in love with me too - but it was the time I spent with her that allowed her to get to know me. The same is true with Jesus Christ. I am reminded of 1 John 4:19 that says we love Him, because HE first loved us. Before you were knit together in your mothers womb - Jesus loved you. When you chose to sin against Him - Jesus loves you. The simple truth is Jesus loves you and just as I sought my Bride - Jesus-Christ is seeking you. When He was on the cross You were on His mind. In making application have you responded to Jesus the way my wife responded to me. Jesus wants to Spend time with you through His Word. Get to know Him and when you do you will see how much He loves You. I pray that this love will lead to your salvation and if you are saved, a closer relationship with Jesus. As we observe Valentines Day this year let us fall in love with Jesus because we know that He first loved us.

 "Thank You," to all those who are apart of this work as we continue to set records for Webhits, Souls Saved, Bibles Distributed, Devotions Emailed, Bibles Downloaded, Audio Bibles Accessed, and Online Bibles Accessed. It is a total team effort as You Pray, Supply Funds, Make Visits, Answer Emails, Place Phone Calls, Provide Bibles, Deliver Bibles, and Share the Gospel. Your labor is not in vain as I receive mail every day of souls being saved and lives being changed. Let us be encouraged to press to the mark of continuing in the Lord, to do His Will, and His Work in these last days. |
After the record numbers of 2014 we now start 2015 with a record number of web hits for a Month with 1.68 million. Can you believe we are now trending at 18 million web hits for this year and projecting 20 million. These web hits coupled with the contacts we make through e-Devotions, Church Services, and Email Correspondence allowed our Ministry to connect over 3 million times in 120 countries. Praise the Lord!!! Financially we had our largest month of Partner giving with Churches giving $21,015 as they provided the Bibles and Shipping for our Bible Requests. With all of this great news we still needed $8,295 to meet every request. Going forward we are trusting the Lord to meet every need. I never thought the Lord would use us in such a large way but we realize that it is Jesus-Christ doing the work. We Thank the Lord for what He is doing and again thank you for asking the Lord how you can be apart of this Ministry. |

 It is very exciting to see how the Lord keeps giving us more ideas to expand our outreach. The Lord placed on my heart this thought of a Purpose of Ownership. I am very excited about all we are reaching but very burdened about those we fail to put a Bible in there hands. We are praying that the Lord would prompt others to help us get to a goal of 100% fulfillment of All Bible Requests. You can make a difference in giving to this Ministry as your spare change will change lives with every $5 donation placing a Bible in the hands of a needy soul. Prayer is needed more than any financial gift as God is so faithful to meet the needs through the prayers of of the Saints of God. Thank you for Partnering with us. Our goal is to reach the world in Evangelism and Discipleship using the Word of God in Print, Electronic forms, and Audio forms as we fulfill the great commission. We look forward to working with you this year. Thank You !! |
