Booklet Brought Hope to His Life
"I am Robert, an inmate in the Boksburg Correctional Centre. I have read your message in
The Way to God/Help from Above [2-in-1] booklet, and it brought hope in my life. Since then, I have read it several times to familiarize myself with the Bible verses and have received more and more understanding about the reality of Jesus Christ. I can honestly say that I now understand why and how I must accept the Lord in my life. I am now a child of God. I have such a hunger for more of the Word of God. Do you have any other study materials that you can mail to
me?"

Booklets "Coolest Thing Since Creamed Cheese"
"I just wanted to take time to thank you for all the help that you have been to us. It has been a true blessing. I am here in Mexico continuing the ministry. The booklets from WMP are
indispensable!
"We have a man who is a driver for a big corn/flour mill, and he carries boxes of Scripture booklets with him to distribute at the grain mills, corn distribution plants, and to other truck drivers. He thinks they are the coolest thing since creamed cheese! His wife loves them, too. She likes to walk through the villages and read the Scriptures to the people, and then give them a booklet. Since most people have eyesight too bad to read, they like the children's books the most because they can see the pictures and the words are bigger.
"The most amazing thing is the little blue New Testaments. Children here have never owned Bibles, much less a book that doesn't belong to the school. When a child comes to our meetings, I give them a [New Testament]. I say, 'This is your Bible because, look, I am writing your WHOLE name in the front of your Bible. This is your Bible to memorize the words inside.' And memorize they do! The parents are reading the [New Testaments], some for the first time. Catholicism is prominent in Mexico but only socially. Ninety percent of Catholics [here] have never read the Word of God. The children bring home stories on coloring pages that I (unfortunately for them) try to draw and copy. They are learning how to look up the stories in the Bible, and they read them to their parents. It's really cool."

Will Not Waste a Single Booklet
"Thanks a lot for the 5,000 mini Telugu booklets of palm size with the title Devuni Yaddaku Dari [Help From Above]. They are really awesome and useful for non-Christians. As we prayed and opened the cardboard boxes, we were amazed to find 5,000 booklets in the Telugu language.... We have distributed them to students, and they liked them. We will not waste even a single booklet since you spent a lot on it and you have a burden. We are praying for your ministry. Please pray for us. We made packages of 250 booklets each and gave them to each evangelist who will visit homes and hold street gospel rallies."

Will Never Walk Alone Again
"Well, I have just started walking with God and doing things in life HIS way instead of my way. One day I was in the billeting (barracks) lobby, and I saw just one, only one, The Way to God booklet placed on the corner of a table. I picked it up and started to read it. I found I could not put it down, but did. I picked it up a few days later and read it again. I did the same a few days later. I would like to be able to share the information I received with others and hopefully assist in making changes in their lives, too. Please send the booklets I have asked for and let us see what comes of it, for I think I can assist in spreading the Word of GOD. I have found this new leaf that has turned my direction to be exciting and calming at the same time. I am a true believer, and I will never walk alone again, for God will always be with me. I finally get it. I understand all is for God and the reasons why I am here on earth. Thank you ever so much.”
