Merry Christmas
Hello Friends of the precious word
of God . Thank you for praying over this month’s newsletter.
We hope you like our
new Newsletter format that addresses all of this Ministries Outreaches. We will be giving results, highlighting
monthly activities, and informing the friends of the U.S.Bible Society of what we are working on. If you would like more info
on any category simply Click on supporting picture and go to that section of our website.
Souls Saved...As
I sit down to pen this Newsletter I am very humbled to continue to see souls come to Christ. To date we have had 5,672
souls wright us telling they have received Christ from some outreach of this Ministry...Praise the Lord. Connecting people
with the Lord is our #1 priority. We know if we are obedient with spreading the Gospel then the we know the Holy
Spirit will convict and bring others to a place where they can be Saved.
Bibles Distributed...This Ministry was formed with a simple goal. To place the Word of God in the hands of individuals with
the Goal of them being Saved. 81,718 Bibles have been placed in the hands of individuals not to mention the Thousands of Japanese
Audio Bibles from the recording we made for MegaVoice. We average a 1,000 Bibles per month through our Global
Network of Church Partners now in 120 Countries. The reports are great from the Church partners who report souls
saved and families reunited with the Church due to someone caring enough to reach out with the Word of God. Still
with everyone we reach there is one who we don't reach due to lack of funds or them being in an obscure area with no Church
within reach of thier need. I am so thankful for the Internet where we can reach them electronically. Continue to pray for
funding for the requests and More folks to get to the mission field so we can fulfill the Great Commission.
Daily Devotion...Daily Devotions
have grown to be our biggest outreach. We have in our goal to obey Christ by discipling the converts and
those who visit this Ministry web site. People like the devotions because it gives them many opportunities to develop a relationship
with the Lord. It is delivered in their In-box daily and has a Chapter of the Bible each day in a 3 year plan to read and
study the entire Bible. We post the Chapter, look at its meaning, then make application to our daily lives from what we have
read. Each devotional thought gives the receiver the option to click and look deeper into our Devotional web-page.
This page has a Spurgeon Devotional, Bible Story, and a live prayer section. This gives the visitor the opportunity
to dig as deep as they like, couple that with the On-line Study Bible and every topic the Lord places on your heart is a click
away from being researched. The only compliant we have is that there too much to digest or that the filter on thier email
blocks the devotional email. You can solve this by either turning off you filter regarding our email address or adding
us to your contact list. Our distribution email address is info@bibles4free.com
Web Hits...It is hard to imagine
633,574 individual visits to our website this year after connecting with that many folks over a 4 year period. We praise
the Lord for others spreading the word of this Ministry. We do not pay for advertising and all the increase is from those
we help telling others of our site. When we started this Ministry we had 68,000 hits for a whole year. We had a month of over
80,000 this year. Now we have had 1,375,822 total web hits since we formed our website. Couple the 1 million web-hits + 6.5
million e mailed devotions + nearly 2 million tracts = a total of nearly 10 million contacts of the Gospel....Praise the Lord.
Although these numbers seem to be large but when you compare them to the 6.5 billion souls it seems we are just getting started.
We are excited to see what the future holds.
Online Church ...Our Church for
those who don't have a local Church across the Globe. Our goal is to provide an online Church Service with a personal Mentor/Minister
to address the spiritual needs of those who attend. Those who attend will see a Video Church Service and have the opportunity
to interact with someone who cares for their needs. Our goal is to (1) evangelise the lost (2) disciple the converts (3) place
the converts in a local assembly that preaches the truth. We still believe in the local Church but have learned that technology in
areas that are in need so we pray that the Lord would use us to fill in the gaps until more Local Churches are established. We
have named the new Church after our home Church, BelmontBaptistChurch.net, and although this Church falls under
the U.S.BibleSociety, Inc. in its structure and financial responsibilities, spiritually I am placing it under the
authority and leadership of my Pastor, Nolan Jackson. I will be looking to him for guidance and direction for all things
moving forward. Viewers
tell us they really enjoy the music with each service as it enhances the messages. Our home church is also working on
getting our live feed and broadcast to production quality. We look forward to getting that to you soon.
Giving...I am constantly amazed
at how the Lord meets the needs of this Ministry and provides for us. We thank our home Church, Belmont Baptist Church in
Conyers Ga. , for providing the funds to cover the Internet service, email service, website service, and providing the base
funds to cover our expenses. We thank our Church partners who provide the individual Bibles and take the time to connect with
individuals who need the Gospel. We thank the Lord for the gifts of family and friends who cover the personal needs of my
family. We truly live by faith and if Lord does not provide the funds we will cease to do this work. I am a person who likes
to budget and plan spending but to be honest there is nothing to budget. This year alone we have received 16k dollars which
met our needs from sources that only God could have supplied. I don't know where to even look for what we need this month
or next but I know God will provide what we need when we need it. He is that kind of God and we give Him all the Praise.
Prayer...Daily prayer
request are sent to our prayer page. I encouraged by others praying for all the requests. Take a moment and click
on the link to join others in prayer. Submit your request and we will take your request to the Lord. Just praying
for others encourages my heart. Post your prayer request and we will pray for you. Pray that the Lord would continue
to meet our needs.
Thank you for Reading Our Newsletter.
