Syd and Liz invited several Muslim friends to a Christmas party.
Ladies representing Libya, Yemen, Syria, and Lebanon
experienced a wonderful time of singing carols and sharing delicious food. Using
an Arabic New Testament from World Missionary Press, two girls from Syria and
Yemen read aloud in Arabic from Matthew's gospel the account of Jesus' birth and
the visit of the wise men. Liz and Syd talked about the miraculous birth of the
One who is the Savior of the world. Following the talk, six ladies willingly
received Arabic New Testaments.
Seeds were planted in the hearts of those precious women.
God will give the increase. Each day WMP sends "seed packets" to
sowers around the world.
Sometimes seeds are sown around a kitchen table, sometimes in a busy street
market, sometimes along remote mountain trails. In Bolivia
The Way to God booklet, giving a clear and simple presentation of God's
love and plan of salvation, is given to thousands of school children. Often the
school visitor takes the students through the booklet verse by verse. In 2010,
workers with New Generation 
Ministries using WMP
booklets visited 5,669 schools, reaching 44,734 teachers and 687,196
students. From those visits 549,756 people professed salvation through
Jesus Christ. God gave the increase. You are helping reach thousands of
children and their teachers with the most important message of their
lifetime.
WMP's national coordinator for Madagascar, Dries Du Plessis,
and his staff prayed over 42 boxes of Scripture booklets before sending them to
the capital city for distribution. In cafes and shops, universities and
office buildings, the booklets will be read and additional seeds sown.
Prisoners in South Carolina have received WMP booklets from
other inmates. Billy K. wrote, "The materials that WMP provides are so
vitally important. Inmates, studying in a prison initiative program, minister to
the men locked behind cell doors. Often it is hard to talk to everyone on a cell
floor in one night. This is when the small Scripture booklets become worth their
weight in gold. They are distributed around, and the inmates welcome them
openly. The booklets always seem to create questions and pique interest in the
Scriptures. This sets up a great opportunity to use the more in-depth Bible
study booklets. They not only help the inmates with studying [the Word, but also
they] allow them to see that there are people outside the fences who really care
about their
spiritual journey." You are helping to sow the seed in a dark and
desolate place. God will give the increase.
What may seem to us as stony ground can still produce good fruit.
In many European countries, response to the gospel is cold indifference. Yet
hearts that appear cold are often broken and desperate. In Spain, WMP
distributors are in “great need" of booklets. They receive requests
weekly and are busy evangelizing in isolated villages. Training migrant nurses
and nurses who look after the elderly to share Scripture booklets with their
patients gives another avenue of sowing seed in areas that are unreached. God is
giving an increase.
Your ongoing involvement with World Missionary Press creates
ongoing impact in hearts and minds of multiplied
thousands.
For WMP's production team there is always the challenge of providing seed for
every sower who asks. Robertson O. of Nigeria expressed deep appreciation for
the five boxes of materials he received. To give the booklets wider spread and in
view of limited quantity available, he decided to share with pastors in a
few churches five Bible study books and ten small topical Scripture booklets -
just 15 booklets per church! He wrote, "We are requesting bigger
quantities, as there are hundreds and hundreds of pastors to reach in this
part of Nigeria."
Much of Southeast
Asia may seem like thorny ground for the gospel, but still the seed falls on
the fertile soil of receptive hearts. WMP's Scripture booklet, Help From
Above, has been recently translated into the Zangiat language for Myanmar.
On the day of dedication for this new tool in reaching the Zangiat tribe,
approximately 20,000 booklets were distributed to pastors, missionaries, and
evangelists from different churches. Additional copies will be sent into the
hill regions. WMP's coordinator Martin L. explained, "The people are very
happy to receive the booklets, as it is the first Scripture booklet in the
Zangiat language." God will give the increase. Your support for
production of new languages is always a
blessing.
"We would like to thank you for sharing your booklets
with us," wrote M.C. from Aruba. "The missions this year in Aruba,
Dominican Republic, and Haiti were overwhelming. We are so blessed that we
had the opportunity to share WMP booklets. Distribution of the 28 boxes we
received was a great success. We are praying for the distribution of the
booklets in Hindi, Chinese, Arabic, and other Asian languages, since we have a
big community on the island [who speak those languages] and they hold on to
their religion." God will give the increase.
From 40-foot containers carrying over 4,000 boxes destined for a
centralized location within a country to one small box sent via international
mail to an individual, World Missionary Press Scripture booklets are covering
the globe. God has His sowers ready to enter the fields, no matter the
condition of the soil. 
The
seed is the Word of God, and the Spirit of God will energize that seed to grow.
Through your prayers and financial support you are joining in
the work of God in drawing precious souls to Himself. You are involved in
eternal matters!
Lonely broken women in Spain, children in Madagascar, villagers in
Myanmar, all need to know the precious truth that God loves them and has
provided a way for them to live with Him eternally.
[A gift of $100 will reach more than 2,000 people with a
Scripture booklet in their own language. An investment of $1,000 will touch more
than 20,000 lives with the seed of God's Word.]
