Baptized 32 High-school Students

“Thank you for all you’ve done for us. We received all the booklets you sent. I personally see to the distribution of them. I want to tell you the results of the school year: I baptized 32 high-school students (at least 14 years old) and six adults from my second church where I pastor. The literature was freely distributed after prayer.

“I’ve been chaplain since 2001 at a private technical evangelical high school. I teach students spiritually and organize Sunday worship for the school year. Since 2001 there have been 81 converts, of which 26 were [this year]. These new converts come from Isalm, animism, and Catholicism. They often ask what to read to grow spiritually.

“Besides these, there are those who haven’t converted who also want to read Christian literature. I want Christian literature for the students before the end of the school year so the ones who resist will be converted. I promise to personally watch over the distribution of this precious literature.”

Teacher Needs Booklets

“I have read...The Way to God, and I am now interested in your booklets. The booklet tells me all the Ten Commandments that our Lord Jesus Christ said in Exodus 20. It also tells me in John 14:6 [that Jesus said], ‘I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one can come to the Father except through me.’

“All that I have read in your booklets has made me powerful and courageous. I am a [youth] member of the church and I [assist with] the junior youth and children’s service. So I need some booklets so that they will acquire knowledge. I need about 200 copies.”

No Booklets Wasted

“I am writing to let you know just how much help you have been to our ministry and our outreach which we do on Saturdays. Your booklets have reached many people who have come to be saved and are now starting to come to the church service my husband has every other Sunday at a [hotel] which provides a room free of charge to us. The people that we minister to cannot get to church during the morning hours due to their line of work, and so we provide them with a church service and help them out that way. 

“The booklets I have requested are the ones we use most and none go to waste. I thank the Lord for everything we get and for your kindness in seeing what missionaries go through to get the Word out there. In a world full of darkness, we can all work together to keep the Light of Hope shining!”

Booklets Follow Jesus Film

“I just received word from Malawi, Central Africa, ‘We are very, very happy to receive the ten thousand booklets [in Chitumbuka and Chichewa] which you promised us, [providing] follow-up materials for the Jesus film program.’

“Just want to let you know how much we appreciate your ministry. I would not know of any other way to get the booklets to them in their own language. THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart.”

Prisoner Desires to Follow God

“I want to say thank you for the [Scripture-text] Datebook that I have read. I have been incarcerated for two years now, and [I have] read your booklet every day, in the morning, while doing my study. Every Scripture I read for that particular day puts a smile on my face. It has given me the desire to follow God and have that personal relationship with Him.... I know there are other inmates in my dorm who also enjoy reading this wonderful booklet.”
