"Good for Nothing" Until Given The Way to
God
"I greet you all in the matchless name [of our] Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Initially I want to introduce myself to you. My name is David. In my childhood my parents passed away from me. From my childhood I am alone. No one wanted to help me, and I was going to finish myself because I was good for nothing. But some lady gave me one small book and on that book was written this:
The Way to God. When I read that book, my life was changed, and now I am a servant of the Lord Jesus. Once I was in sin, but now in grace. Really, Jesus is great. He is making me to understand His ways nowadays, which is the cause of my writing this letter to you. ...After receiving Christ, Jesus has changed my life, and now I can worship Him.

Felt Sorry for His Sin
"I got a copy of the Scripture Memory Book in Holland, where I asked for asylum. After going through the handbook in the detention center, the book really changed my life. During my past I was homosexual. After reading the book, I felt sorry for my sin and changed from my
habit.
"Mainly [I need the] plan of salvation and a guide to victorious living. Also [I
need] the Bible Reading Book. Kindly send me some other copies of your booklets because for me it acts like motivation. I believe God has a purpose in my life, and that's why I'm in
detention...."

Was in Darkness, Now in Light
"I am sending you greeting from all the way in Ghana. I am very excited to tell you that I have at last accepted Jesus Christ as my personal Savior because He came and died on the cross for my
sins.
"Before reading one of your booklets I was in the world, not knowing God. After reading
The Way to God, I now know that I was lost but now I have been found. I was in the darkness, but the Lord God has brought me into the light. I am therefore a born-again Christian and a son of the living
God."

Booklet Effectively Reaching Kids
"We have been using your Scripture Memory Book with our youth at church since March 2006. Recently 85 per cent of the 10- to 14-year-olds confessed a solid faith in Christ; 71 percent wanted to be baptized. I serve a very small church, and our youth numbers are low compared with others. I use percentage terms not for pride, but to indicate how effective your material is for training in the ways of the
Lord.
"We are also currently working with a few people from India who are newly grasping the meaning of Christ's sacrifice. We use your materials a great deal in international student ministry. Be encouraged by your labors and the fruit you are presenting to our
Savior."

The World's Orphans Are a Staggering Need
"Thank you for your very generous gift of 1,537 boxes of English, Bemba, and Chichewa gospel booklets for ACTION Zambia and their work with street and underprivileged children, needy pastors, and Christian workers in evangelism and discipleship. What a tremendous provision this is at this
time!
"Please pray with ACTION as we share the gospel and provide compassionate care to some of the 160 million street children throughout the world. There are 1.5 million children on the streets in the Philippines and up to 40 million in Latin America. There are an estimated 104 million orphans in the world, 13 million of them AIDS orphans in
Africa....
"We are amazed even now at what God is doing through this container project for Zambia. Thank you so much again for your part in this to the glory of
God."
