Send me your poor, your orphans, your druggies, and your drunks
From UkrainianBible
For the third time, an unsolicited gift of $2,000 has come from Emmanuel Lutheran Church in Columbus, Ohio, to pay for New Testaments to distribute to those who need them but are too poor to pay.
In the past, we have flooded three prisons with these New Testaments, and have also provided them to orphans, unwed mothers who visit our life centers, street kids, people in drug and alcohol rehab, and the destitute elderly in government institutions. In the past, about one fourth also went to a special program for poor handicapped children. Since Ukraine now has a beautifully illustrated full-color children's Bible, and since almost all these children are far too poor even for a wheelchair let alone a TV set, this might be the most beautiful thing in their homes. At the moment this project is suspended because there is no funding even to print such Bibles, let alone distribute them.
If you would like to help us distribute more New Testaments, please donate today! Please also contact me and mention the amount and designation for your gift.
And may the Lord bless you as you bless others. These Bibles and Testaments will not sit on a coffee table. Most Ukrainians don't have coffee tables! Or houses big enough to keep one in! And they will not gather dust on a top shelf. They will be READ.
