Co-Worker’s Son Finds Christ Through Booklets
“A lady I work with has a 10-year-old who was asking a lot of questions
regarding his salvation and how he can know that he is going to heaven. I helped
her with some Scripture references but then remembered I had some World
Missionary Press booklets. She took these home to him and through her dialogue
and with the help of the Holy Spirit, he accepted Christ.

Man Wants to Change His Ways
“Please, sir, my aim of writing this letter is just to plead you to
send me some of your items which contain God’s words....
“...My friend gave [your address] to me. He told me some of the changes which have come to his life when you sent him the items. For instance, he told me that he has now stopped telling lies, insulting elder people, and stealing things. I also want to stop all those things, so I want you to send me some of your booklets....”

Booklets Bearing Fruit in Villages
“Despite global divine good news achievement, hundreds of people are still
perishing because of lack of knowledge in the distant villages in the southwest
province. [In one village] no church has been established. This was our major
objective, for which we requested the Bible booklets. We asked particularly for
Satan versus CHRIST since it emphasizes witchcraft, idol worship, etc. In the
village of Bokwai, after a sermon there, one lady openly rebuked her friend to
remove the witchcraft bay buried behind her backyard.
“We...say earnestly that the Bible booklets sent to us have yielded much
fruit, particularly in nearby villages.”

Latvian and Russian Booklets Requested
“I will be making another trip to the Republic of Latvia. God has opened doors
for the ministry to grow in that former Soviet nation. I am now getting into
more and more churches.
“Can you again help out? This ministry is so small we do not have money to
purchase items such as Bible tracts and Christian literature. So, because of WMP,
our teams have been able to leave hundreds of your Scripture booklets in Latvia.
In fact, one year while I was trying to get into the country, the immigration
officer wanted to see what type of literature I was bringing into the country. I
opened my luggage and showed him. He was a Christian, so I gave him a stack of
the booklets to pass out to his unsaved friends.”

God Moves a Prisoner Into Place to Answer a Prayer
“Thank you for the two sets of booklets that I received about 1½ months ago.
It was such a blessing to give them to some hungry (for the Word) men. The Lord
used me [to] pass one set out in one housing unit. I was led of the Lord to give
A Bible Study on Revelation to one man I knew in another housing unit, but how
was I to get it to him? Then that night I was moved...to the unit where this man
was. When I gave it to him and told him the Lord wanted me to give it to him, he
said, ‘I had a study on Revelation and lent it out and never got it back.
Scott and I were praying for a study on Revelation and you brought us one. It
seems that once we pray, the Lord answers our prayers quickly.’ I was there
less than 12 hours [before being] moved again for an ‘unknown’ reason.”
Name withheld, U.S.A.
Man Eager to Grow in Faith
“I enjoy reading the booklet that was given to me entitled How To Know God. At
first I saw myself as a real born-again Christian, but when I finished reading
the booklet, I was very, very challenged. I saw myself as a sinner. But now, by
the grace of God, I have surrendered my life to Jesus, my personal Savior and
Lord.
“The booklet has let me to know God more so I will like to request that I be given another book to read so that I will grow in the Lord.”
J.A., Ghana
Prisoner Freed to Minister
“For the past two years we have received correspondence and letters from 140
prisons in Ukraine. I always wondered [why], since we never targeted those
prisons. Then we noticed a volunteer who would come every month to pick up as
many gospel booklets as he could carry and then return the next month. Last
month, when we asked him who he was, he told us his story.
“Two years ago he was in prison, convicted for life. One day somebody gave him a little book that said, How to Know God. He read the booklet and wrote to our EHC office asking for a New Testament. We sent him a New Testament and he began to read it. He got to Luke 4:18 where it says, ‘To proclaim liberty to captives.’ In Russian, it reads, ‘To free the prisoners.’ He made a covenant with the Lord. He said, ‘Lord, if this is Truth and you are a real God, then free me and give me a Christian wife.’
“Four months went by. One day he was called to the office and told that he was free to go. After he was released, he found a church. Two months later he found a Christian wife, and now he is taking the good news to others, especially to those in prisons.
“I am amazed at the POWER of the PRINTED WORD.
“It has been such a joy and privilege for me to partner with you in taking the gospel to millions of people that heard it for the first time in their life.”
P.I., Ukraine
“I Want to Shout for Joy All the Time”
“I am a Christian. Before I was baptized, I was living the life of a dirty
sinner. Although I was brought up in church, I had strayed from the truth. But
the seed that was planted in me very early in my life started to grow and I
began to be in want for the gospel to make me what I used to be. I got what I
need—the peace and contentment that God gives.
“This is my story: One day I was cleaning up my dressing table, and there upon it I found a little booklet with this title: How to Know God. I took it up, not knowing who put it there, and I began to read.... As I continued to read, all of a sudden I began to feel so humble and light, as if I was floating. I [read] on, and in that booklet was every answer I need for my daily living.
“On that same day I [had been] distressed and unhappy. I felt so troubled after coming home from work, as if my life was falling apart. But, thanks be to God, His words are always there to keep us steady and on solid ground. I feel as if I want to shout for joy all the time, but I am afraid people might say I am crazy. I am so happy and free now after reading the Word of God that was so well put together....
“I love the Lord with all my heart and I will not go back to sin. No sir! Not me! Everything is free and without cost when you give your all up to God. I can name a few: wisdom, salvation, happiness, freedom, gift of love, and the Holy Spirit. May God bless you all, and one day we will meet on that beautiful shore.”
A.W., St.Vincent
Booklet Found Beside the Road
“I am a pastor, born again, washed by the blood of Jesus Christ, and ordained
by God. I came to know you in a miraculous way when I was going to the lake one
evening. I saw a small booklet beside the road entitled Help From Above,
compiled by Watson Goodman. I picked it up and read it. In fact, it is so
helpful to new converts.
“Our church was established last year. Though we are preaching the gospel, we have no literature to supply [to the people]. Fortunately, on the back of that booklet you said that other booklets are available and we can ask for them. I now kindly request you to help us so that we can give booklets to people on our crusades who have decided to take Jesus as their Lord and Savior, and who want to know more about Jesus.”
S.S., Uganda
Encouraged To Read the Bible in Prison
“After a long period of life without purpose, I eventually found myself in
prison. Everything seemed to come to an end. Then, as if to prove me wrong, the
Lord of heaven and earth whispered into my ears, ‘You don’t belong where you
are now. You belong to Me.’ Since then my life has changed. Jesus has come
into my life. The booklets of God’s Word you brought encouraged me to read the
Bible and have given me encouragement.”
P.K., Uganda
Booklets Are Essential Ammunition
“[During our recent mission trip to Sudan] there was an overwhelming,
enthusiastic response to World Missionary Press booklets, particularly from
Muslims in the Nuba Mountains, [including] some exciting testimonies of
conversions. The Bible students and pastors report a continual stream of
converts from Muslim backgrounds, and in this the WMP booklets have been
essential ammunition in the spiritual warfare of winning the lost to Christ.”
P.H., South Africa
Booklet Effectively Showed The Way to God
“The brightness of the day has given me this opportunity to tell you that I
have read the little book, The Way to God, and I am interested in receiving
additional studies of God’s Word. I was once with my parents and other
relatives and was disobedient, even to my parents. I was not following their
instruction.
“One Sunday morning, I was called by a friend who gave me this little book to read. I was unwilling to read, but I was forced. After reading through, something came into my mind: Through one man sin entered the world and every person is born with the sin nature and will some day die. And, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.
“It is Jesus Christ who loved us and died for us and through Him we can be saved. I thought: If so, I would stop doing evil and give my whole life for Christ because through Him I can be saved. I will also be friendly and love my friends as I love my life. I will pay attention to my parents’ advice. I will be obedient and help my parents. I repent of my sins. Nowadays I am good always.
“I thank the Lord Jesus for dying on the cross to take away my sins and departed me from evil. I am sorry for all the wrong things I have done. I ask the Lord to come into my heart and live in my heart forever. I am trusting Him right now to make my heart clean. I take Jesus Christ to be my very own Savior and Lord. I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever, Amen.”
S.A., Ghana
Could Not Stop Reading
“I am an inmate in a federal prison, serving a short time (praise God). I am
from the island of Jamaica. I met other inmates here who share the blessings of
the Lord together on Sundays in the prison chapel.
“One day while I was at my assigned work place,...an inmate showed me one of your booklets titled Help From Above. I started to read it and I could not stop. It was very interesting to me as I just started to know Christ as my Savior and Lord.
“I would be very grateful if you could send a couple of them to me, for myself and to distribute to other inmates.... Please help me and pray for me. I am suffering from diabetes. I am 54 years old.”
H.M., New Jersey
Booklets Distributed in Hospitals and Nursing
Homes
“I would like to have a box of booklets like Help From Above and so on. I
visit nursing homes and hospitals. If I meet someone that is not saved, I offer
them one. If they accept, I tell them about God and have prayer with them. I
return later to have a talk with them and see if I have made any progress.
“There was this girl who worked in the sheriff’s department, so I gave her a booklet and kept going back for a year. One day when I went back, she had a smile on her face. She told me she had given her heart to God and was going to church every Sunday. May God bless this person.”
T.W., West Virginia
Praising the Lord Has Changed Everything
“The Let’s Praise the Lord booklet fell into my hands a few months ago. I
can’t tell you what a difference it has made in my life, to spend at least 15
minutes each day praising God. It has changed everything in my relationship with
the Lord for the better. What a blessing! Thank you so much for following the
leading of the Holy Spirit and compiling this booklet. I have shared this with
several people who I know would also be committed to praising the Lord each day
for 15 minutes. So, please send me ten more copies if your budget allows. Thank
you again.”
K.L., California
Life-Changing Booklet Found on Ground
“I am a girl of eighteen years old and a student in secondary school. I found
a booklet entitled A Bible Study on Revelation on the ground. This booklet has
changed my life because it helps me to do my quiet time every morning. I like
the words in it very much because it always touches my heart when I read it.”

Souls Brought to Christ through Booklets
Here in Argentina we are suffering trials, but we know that
tribulation produces patience and hope.... Thanks to your booklets, souls are coming to
[the Lord].
Monzon...was an alcoholic with other vices. Today he is a happy soul and saved by the glory of God.
Orlando...was a man who woke up on the streets, an alcoholic and lost, and many times in prison. Today he is a transformed person who walks in the streets distributing booklets, heading the evangelism and [is] a deacon in the church.
Ramon...was an alcoholic who slept on the pavement and was lost. One man chased him down the sidewalk [to see him saved] and today he is in the church. You cant believe your eyes.
The work of God is...constantly advancing. This encourages us to persist in evangelizing other places where no one has ever been, and [your] literature is special for this work.
A.V., Argentina
Reader Learns of Forgiveness in Jesus
Because of one of your [French] New Testament[s], I now know Jesus
Christ as Lord of my life.... I had grown up in a Christian home and was using drugs and
alcohol in secret. One day I read some scriptures about the forgiveness of Jesus, about
the cross and the resurrection. I gave my life back to the Lord. I have not touched drugs
and alcohol since then because Jesus is my eternal happiness and He fills my every
longing.
A.M., Benin
Scripture Booklets Lead Reader to God
My name is Nicole. I love reading [your] booklets [because] they

grasp my attention.... Every day that I talk more...to God and...trust Him, my life seems
happier. It was your book[lets] that led me to God.

A Captive Curious Audience
Today we were late getting to our clinic because the road
contractor stopped traffic for 45 minutes. A bus pulled up beside us in the left lane so
as to get ahead of everyone else. We were a little annoyed, but then realized that the bus
comes from a town we seldom have a chance to go to and was filled with Quiche people. This
was the perfect chance to walk around the bus and [hand Help From Above] booklets to each
passenger that wanted one, and the bus was overcrowded.
Soon almost all the passengers had their heads down reading their new books. Weve found that often when one passes out literature to a bus load of people, there is soon a little Bible study started as various ones start discussing what they have found. The people are not like Americans who are embarrassed to talk about religion in public. The Guatemalans are glad to talk about spiritual matters and dont worry about who is listening.
J.C., Guatemala
Thirst for the Word of God Rekindled
I am a South African...worker [who] stay[s] at a hotel about 150
kilometers...from my home town.... Last week while waiting for my transport I found a
Bible study booklet called A Bible Study on Genesis in the gutter. I am a born-again
Christian! I have just completed reading this booklet and I have been impressed by the
Spirit of the Lord to say thank you.... You have rekindled my hunger and thirst to seek
after the Word of God.
A.W., South Africa
Booklets Fill the Gap for New Believer
I am a born-again believer taking my cross for the Lord and for the sake of the
kingdom. After wasting 5 years of my life thinking I was good enough to go to heaven, I
realised how wrong I was, and with great joy I asked Jesus Christ into my life.
Your [booklets], How to Know God, The Way to God, and Help From Above, led me to that great salvation. A friend gave me those [booklets] and with a reluctant heart I accept[ed] them and read with hesitation. I was convicted by the Holy Ghost and accepted Christ in my life. Real joy, contentment, [and] peace flooded me that day.

Torn Page Draws Reader to Seek More
I am a second-year high-school boy. Recently I was in school [and] I saw a
torn sheet of paper [on the floor]. I picked it up [and] cleaned it a bit and started
reading it. It was teaching me about the Holy Spirit. I wanted to read more but it was
torn. I saw the address. Your [booklet] helped me a lot. Can you send me any more gospel
material like that?
W.S., Uganda
Booklet Shows Son of Fetish Worshiper the One True God
I am a boy of 23...who [came] to know and believe God not long ago. My father who is
about 60 years old was a fetish priest before his repentance.
I have enjoyed reading your booklet, How to Know God, so much. [It] enable[d] me to know much about God. I have learned that there is only one true God who is merciful, gracious, and who loves us all.... I have [also] learned that any one who worships any other thing apart from this true God [like my father used to do] is going astray. This mean[s] that unless one worships, fears, and obeys this true God and lets the light of Him shine on him, one is...lost.
T.P., Ghana
Gospel Witness Continues Despite Communist Rule
Thank you so much for the boxes of [booklets] youve sent us. One lady
testified that through reading one, the Holy Spirit convict[ed] her to repent.... During
our evangelism every Sunday hundreds of souls [have] been brought to our Lord.... Your
[booklets have] been a great help for us to reach the lost souls here in Hong Kong.

Miracle of Salvation Realized
I am a Fiji citizen in the Fiji islands. Im 24 years old and Im a
member of the Fiji Military Christian Fellowship.
I received [a] booklet published by your press called... Veivuke Mai Cake [Help From Above]...from an army chaplain and it [has] been very useful in our ministry. I received about 100 copies from him and...we used [them]...for outreach in Fijian villages. We have more villages to go and [we have no more copies]. Souls are saved [through] what you are [printing] and I know that the greatest miracle is a soul...saved by Christ.
E.M., Fiji
New Booklet in Tagalog Dialect Well Received
The arrival of [your] material was very timely.... [The] pastors were able to take
home enough supply of Tagalog [booklets] that they can use for reaching the lost in the
remote area of the Philippine archipelago.
I was very delighted to see a copy of The Way to God printed in the Tagalog dialect. This is an answered prayer. I believe that many more souls will be led to Christ. We find this publication very effective for winning souls for Christ.

Booklets Distributed in Crusade in Lahore
Two sisters from U.S.A. visited us this April [and] brought along with them four
boxes of booklets... in Urdu language. We preached the gospel [in Lahore] and distributed
those booklets to the people who attended the meetings. We praise the Lord that most of
the stock has been distributed. We need even more...to distribute in different villages
and towns where we plan to hold crusades in [the] near future.
The booklets printed by you are a good tool for evangelism and follow up. It will be our pleasure to receive continuously [those] printed in Urdu language.
S.B., Pakistan
Booklets Help Readers Discover Needs in Their Lives
I got so busy distributing that vast amount of [booklets] previously sent that I
forgot to say thank you.... The abundance of [booklets] that you sent...gave me
opportunity to issue them all over. I was surprised also to see the response, especially
in my work place. People found it very relevant to take them and read them. Many who
return say that the [booklets] are truly inspiring and have helped them to be conscious of
things in their lives which they have overlooked or have taken for granted.
At first when I received the [booklets] I said, Yes, I will have enough for a long time. But none are in stock now.
O.A., Jamaica
A Blessing From a Friend
A few weeks ago I got your booklet from my friend. I read it and I [felt] blessed
and uplifted [as] I was reading. I feel that the Holy Spirit spoke directly to my heart. I
am a student and a Christian, too.
B.W., Ethiopia
An Answer to Prayer
One day [I prayed] to God to let me know Him well and to understand His teaching....
That same morning...I found a booklet entitled A Bible Study on Genesis. [As] I went
through a few pages,...I knew that my Lord had answered my prayer.... The way Genesis is
explained in this booklet is wonderful. I now know how wonderful and loving God is.
L.E., Ghana
A Spiritual Square Meal
Many, many thanks for the many parcels of the precious booklets you sent us. Many
people like them for they are very instructive;...they are a good spiritual square
meal. They are compact, and when we give someone such a booklet we know that if they
really want to know, they have enough information to come to the conclusion that the Lord
Jesus Christ died for their sins and that salvation by faith in Him is simple.
I like when I go out...to have some of your booklets (various titles) in my pockets, suitable for every opportunity. Recently a teacher came to me and asked for more titles of your booklets because he thinks they are useful for teaching in the classroom....
K.S., England
Distribution in Russian Youth Camps
Here is a donation for your ministry to cover the cost of the [booklets] we recently
took to Russia. Many of these [booklets] were distributed during ministry times in youth
camps (not Christian camps), street ministry, and evangelistic crusade meetings. We took a
team of 31 Americans and Canadians and ministered in three different cities. We saw
500-600 commitments to Christ during eight days of ministry. Thank you again for making
your [booklets] available to us.
R.R., Indiana
Booklets Well-Received in Business Office
Thank you all very much for the 15,000 Spanish booklets. They are received very well
by the people here....We were in a business office and passed out a couple of copies of
the Way to God. [Later} a lady approached us on the street saying, `Would you please give
me one of those booklets like you gave to my fellow worker and other day in the
office? Pray with us that the Holy Spirit will use each booklets to lead many to
Jesus Christ.

Muslim Convert Dies for His New Faith
Two years ago during a trip to Israel my friends and I distributed WMP booklets,
including...to two guides. Later one of my friends went back to Israel and saw one of the
guides. He asked about the other guide. My friend was told that the man, who was a Muslim,
had been saved and used the booklet to share his faith with others, including his family.
He was killed as a result of sharing his faith in Christ.
R.H., Illinois
Booklets Reach Into Interior of Country
We are sincerely grateful for your contribution with the [booklets] that we received
from you.... [They are] a main factor in witnessing to lost souls. [There] is a town
called Divala in the interior about 300 miles from our home. The gospel was preached there
and approximately 200 persons...gave their hearts to God. Praise His name!

Readers Life Changed
I read The Amazing Life of Jesus Christ...and since then my life has not been the
same. I realized that without Christ life is meaningless. I would like to receive some
copies to share with my friends. J.E., Nigeria
Daily Use of Bible Studies Brings Deeper Relationship with God
My soul found joy in living, a chance [for] getting acquainted with God, [and] hope, faith, and a deepened relationship with Jesus through my daily reading of your Bible studies. I am a regular reader of your Scripture studies. I have learned a lot and [had] discussions with friends and relations, many of whom are now following Christ and are equally interested in reading more from you. Your [booklet], How to Know God,...restored peace to my hopelessness and sadness. Time upon time, I...refer to the Bible references and [find] life and light for my sadness.
U.S., Nigeria
Booklet Touches Ethiopian Teenager

Albanian Prisoners Find Booklet Easy to Read and Understand
I have been using [How to Know God] with many blessings in my work...with the
Albanian prisoners that are in the Greek prisons. At this [time] there are 1,500-2,000
Albanians in Greek prisons.... [They] dont understand the Greek language most of the
time. [They] came to Greece to work and to help their poor families.... As far as I know,
I am the only one who [is trying] to reach out to these [people]. In general the prisoners
are very open to the gospel. I praise the Lord that in the past months some of [them] have
accepted Jesus Christ as their Savior. In some cases your booklet, How to Know God, played
an important role, and the Holy Spirit used it to speak to their hearts. Some of the
prisoners are not able to read difficult books and so [your booklet] is easier for them to
understand.
A.V., Greece
Tribe in Cameroon Receives Scripture
On the way to Kumbo, my home town, your booklets constituted a great blessing for
the Nso tribe that is in total darkness. I carried them in hundreds.
The Spirit led me to carry some [also] to the Banso Baptist Hospital and the Shisong General Hospital. I distributed [them] to patients and to visitors. It was a great break-through even though the devil did not fail to fight against me.
W.C., Cameroon

Forty-two People Came to Know God
We were so happy to get your [booklets]. They helped us first to do door-to-door
evangelization in the town of Grand Bereby, where two people came to know Jesus. Our [team
went] to a village where 28 children and 12 adults came to know God.
In these two activities I distributed all the [booklets] and I need you to send me more. I need to help these new believers grow in the Lord, so I need you to send some New Testaments for them.
K.K., Ivory Coast

Thank you for your letter...and the French translation of The Way to God. Ive

Scripture Booklets of Necessary Importance in Zambia
In Zambia there is a nationwide shortage of Lozi and Tonga Bibles. Lozi New
Testaments are still available, but the supply is running low. This situation makes your
Lozi booklets of necessary importance.
We are presently working with five congregations; two are Lozi villages; one is the large compound of Linda which is Lozi and Tonga villages. In Livingstone proper, English is the predominant language.
Your booklet entitled The Way to God is absolutely wonderful. I am thankful for your help.
Presently we have enough Bible study books; however, the supply of booklets is low. Anything you could send in Tonga, Lozi, and English (KJV or NKJV) will be a great help.
R.H., Zambia
Booklets Arrive at the Moment of Greatest Need
[Your booklets] arrived at the moment we had the greatest need. We gave [them] out
house-to-house, quarter-to-quarter, preaching the kingdom of God. [We] preach on sin and
its consequences, salvation, Heaven, Hell, and judgment. The people are well-warned.
Your booklets help in this task because sometimes words can be stolen, but the Scriptures remain. Hundreds of souls have already been evangelized.
D.H., Benin
Souls Saved Through the Mail
Please send me great number of [booklets] for us to evangelize lost souls for Jesus
and also...for our growth. I do really burden greatly those perishing souls daily....
I have been sending [booklets to] five friends through mail here in Hong Kong.... As I [returned] from annual vacation, I was so astonished that they are now committed to the Lord a month ago. Thanks for your prayers. I will always pray for your...ministry.
You are a great blessing to Jesus Is Lord Church as hundreds of souls come to Jesus through the use of your gospel literatures.

Nine-Year-Old Boy Finds Jesus
I am a [nine-year-old] boy and I am in [grade] four. At first I [was] a
rascalI always disobeyed my parents. I [didnt] ever go to church. One day when
I was in school my teacher gave us a small [booklet]. When I [was] going to sleep I read
it. In the [booklet] was a man called Jesus Christ. [It] says he came to die for our sins.
So I asked my parents about it. They told me to...read John 3:16. That day I told my
parents, I have changed my life.

Chinese Students Find God
We invited a young Chinese couple who are university students to our home. We gave
them Chinese and English booklets of How to Know God.... A few weeks later they
called...to say, We are Christians, now. We have found...God.
We are very thankful to the Lord for allowing us to have this opportunity. And we wanted to let you know of one more story about how WMP booklets have been used to point someone to God.
M.K., Ohio
Ilocano Testaments Answer to Prayer
Thank you so much for the box of Ilocano New Testaments. What a nice surprise and a
real answer to prayer! For more than two years I have been searching for a source.
One year ago the Laoag Community Center opened here. While we provide a library, table games, typewriters, etc., for students use, our primary purpose is to share the gospel and assist students to attend [church] and grow in [the Lord]. Bibles are so important to use.
What a joy it will be to stimulate unsaved students and encourage newly saved students with your New Testaments! I am especially pleased that they are in Ilocano so that the students can really understand what they are reading.

Muslim Man Finds Life in Christ
I got [a booklet] from one of my friends in our university. He gave me Satan versus
CHRIST. I am a new Christian...and I want to know about God and about Jesus. I was a man
under devil control, but now thank God I know Jesus...died for me and saved me.... I was a
Muslim but...I left it because I couldnt find life there.

Each Booklet Read by At Least Five People
[Your] booklet...Who Am I That a King Would Die in My Place?...is very popular and
very helpful. Literature is desperately needed here in Rwanda.... When we give out this
booklet...,the biggest problem we have is protecting ourselves from being mobbed. I can
say with certainty that each booklet given out is read by at least five people, and
probably more likely by ten. There is a real dearth of Christian literature here and a
huge demand for it.
G.B., Rwanda
Hong Kong Church Has Many First-timers Attending Services
Because of your great help in our church through your [booklets] which we are using
for evangelism every Sunday, we have seen many first-timers attending our service as a
result of reading your gospel booklets.
We have now eight services every Sunday in different places here in Hong Kong. We want to give God all the glory for His love and compassion to the lost soul.
Brothers, we want to continue to share the love of Christ here. Could you please send us [more] boxes of...booklets for evangelism? Thank you. [Editors note: We sent 3,000 booklets.]
M.O., Hong Kong
Convict and Idolater Converted
The [WMP] literature which we received last year was a great blessing. It helped us

in buses and in offices.
We saw...a convict read Help From Above and give his life to the Lord. This same convict gave Who Am I That a King Would Die in My Place? to his father, an idolatrous person, and he too gave his life to the Lord. Soon he is to be baptized.

We [were] so happy when [your] little book arrived in our hands. I am in a
penitentiary in Brazil. [Along with] many brothers and the aid of God, [I] am starting a

[Scripture] booklets and leading people to Jesus. This time he passed out over 10,000
booklets and [many] came to know Jesus as Lord and Savior. Gods Word will never come
back empty. We pray that whoever receives these booklets, the Holy Spirit will convict
them to know God and come back to Him.

Thank you for faithfully sending me [Scripture booklets]....
I am blessed every time in my prayer life as I read through the booklets.... I am reminded of my coldness toward God and His ministry. God has used the literature to speak to my heart that its high time that I go down to my knees and pray with a burdened heart for lost souls and revival.

Good Harvest Using Scripture Booklets
It is a great blessing to have such very good [Scripture booklets] which have been
published by the power of the Word of God that will be useful for our evangelisation. When
I ordered them,...it was a great experience because of our result and good harvest by
passing out these [booklets] to lost people through our outreach team in Copenhagen.
[Since] I became in charge of the evangelistic team,...many co-workers in the team have
gotten many responses for receiving...Christ through our one-to-one distribution. The Lord
Jesus has shown me concerning prayer [that] evangelism without intercession is an
explosive without a detonator.
...I have received [the booklets] in English and Danish. Our outreach team is using [the Scripture booklets] every Saturday for open-air meetings in the center of town and [in] street evangelism.
Our evangelistic team [is] so glad to use these [booklets] because of their good qualities. I would like to thank all of you very much for your ministry and for your cooperation with [our] evangelistic team.

I am writing this letter to thank you very much for so many good changes that [have]
taken place in my friends [lives].... Some were thieves, [disobedient], ungrateful,
dishonest, and with so many bad behaviors. But according to the [booklets] I received from
you and the good work of the Lord, they have all got to know Christ. Because of your
support, it is now obvious for me to turn mankind on a new leaf (changing them for the
better).
I once again thank you very much and I will be glad if you will try as much as possible to provide me these booklets to share them after teaching them the way to Christ.

Jamaican Helped by the Discarded Booklet He Found
I received your most gracious shipment of booklets.... As soon as I unveiled them at
the Bible Institute, there was a real run on the box. Everyone took at least five copies
of each. One of our girls who is in high school took 10 to school with her and came back
after school to get 50 more. This Saturday night we will distribute at least 500 in
downtown Port Antonio. While waiting for the bank to open this morning, I passed out 25
copies of The Way to God. Soon people were coming up to my van to ask for copies.
Last week we distributed 600 [booklets] in Port Antonio with the help of five adults and seven children, ages 9-14. We prayed that the Lord would move someone to respond. The next day a policeman from Buff Bay, a town 45 minutes...from here, called to say he had found a discarded [booklet] on the streets of his town. ...The next day his brother called to ask for help. You cant even throw Gods Word away!
Grace Bible Institute can use as many...booklets as you can send. We travel through the mountains...distributing the Word and ministering to the people.

they may easily [be] converted unto God.

A Student Learns to Fear God
I am a student who is attending secondary school.... I used to talk with people in
wrong ways, quarreling, insulting elders, didnt take advice, no respect. It was just
recently when I was walking with one of my relatives he gave me...[The Way to God]. Even I
refused to take it, but he was begging me to take one.
I read through and I saw what is good and what is bad, things which would lead to heaven and things which would lead you to hell.... From that day I started going to church every Sunday.... I repent and became [a] God fearing person.

How to Know God Like Gold to Me
I came across one of your booklets, How to Know God. In fact that booklet is
like...gold to me. It really ministered to me.
I am a newly converted Christian. I love God so much that I am ready to forsake everything and follow Him. But I have a very big problem that [has] been pulling me from God, [that is] self and the heart. I also want to be filled with the Holy Spirit.
Even though I have been praying to God, I will be very grateful if you will join me in prayer for this problem. I will also be grateful if you can send me more copies of your current booklets on different teachings about God.... [WMP is counseling her.]

I am a Filipino musician working...in Japan. Maybe its a blessing that I was
brought here at this time to send the gospel [of] our Lord Jesus Christ with your help.
Would you kindly send me some [booklets], especially [Help From Above] in Japanese
language that I may distribute it on the street.
I was here...in 1988, but I was not yet a born-again Christian. In 1990 the Holy Spirit touched my soul with that small [Scripture booklet] Help From Above.

Good Morale Booster in Desperate Quest
I came across one of your spiritual [booklets], How to Know God, through my former
roommate....That was about a year ago. I had no value for it then as I was not yet born
again.
However, the Lord came into my life a couple of months back. I had forgotten everything about your [booklet] until I visited my village and discovered the [booklet] in my room. Though it is now soiled, it was so well-preserved that the words in it are treasures for me.
I must confess that even though I read the Bible [in the] past, my reading was not spiritually inspired. I read it like any other literature book. So reading that [booklet] so carefully selected and topically arranged is a very good morale booster in my desperate quest to know my Savior.
...[I am struggling] between my new-found faith and atheism. I know that the devil is trying to trample on the seed which has been planted in my life, but he will try in vain.... I know...your [booklets] will strengthen my faith.
