WMP Part of the Action
"The church I attend continues to grow and now has members from 28 nations. Last Saturday we had a large meeting to try to understand how we can better serve them. At the meeting I had a WMP display. It was very well received, and I had some very excited Africans when they were given Scripture booklets in their own language AND dialect.
     
"The Scripture booklets I have left are turning into a very valuable source. I am starting to receive interest like I have never seen before!... In recent years we have planted five churches in the city, all in the middle-class areas, but now we are to take the battle into a Muslim area.  Already, by the grace and favor of the Lord, we have access into twelve schools in the area with a sports pursuits team teaching football. All I know is that WMP is a part of what is happening in my church."

Booklet Kept After Him for Four Years
"Four years ago I received a booklet from the hands of Brother Walter Paz. The booklet was called Who Am I That a King Would Die in My Place? At the time I received this booklet, I tossed it in the trash, but the next day I drove past the place where I had tossed it, and there was that booklet. I didn't think anything of it, but I stuck it in the glove box. A month later I found it and started to read it, but I didn't like it because it gave me the creeps and made my whole body feel hot.
     
"Then I tried to get rid of that little booklet. So I handed it to a friend who was in prison. To my surprise, at the time I gave that booklet to my friend, he accepted Christ, but I didn't. When this friend of mine spoke to me of how he had accepted Christ through this booklet, I didn't have any more to do with my friend other than to tell him to pray for me. And so it was that on the 1st of February of this year I accepted the Lord through this little booklet.

"The truth is that this booklet has an extraordinary power. I was converted to the Lord after this booklet kept after me for four years.  Brothers, the work that you are doing for the Lord is not in vain."

Inmate Saved Through Coloring Book
"In March we sent for some coloring books for the Kalamazoo County Jail ministry, women's division. One of the women asked for one to pass the time. She had been interested in God but hadn't understood the gospel. As she read the coloring book, God spoke to her heart and helped her to understand. She prayed to receive Jesus as her Savior. Praise the Lord!"

Elderly Pay Kids to Read Booklets to Them
"One way or another, we have been receiving your booklets here in Guatemala. Church groups, tourists, any friend who comes here, have to call you and get literature to bring for our work in Guatemala.
     
"The New Testament study has been a valuable tool for our ministry. Here are some of the ways it is used: as sermon outlines to preach, ladies groups, before-church Bible studies, as a study guide for new converts, youth group activities, and many more ways.
    
"We are also very fond of all of your Quiche language booklets, for the Quiche is one of the larger areas of our work. People who can't read, the elderly and the mature Christian Quiche, all give their grandchildren a dime or ask a neighbor to read what the booklet says. They are so attractive.
     
"All my friends tell me you quickly send the material, no questions asked. Thank you very much for the contribution you readily make towards the enlargement and understanding of the kingdom of God."
