“With all the unrest in Haiti, it is incredible that the children continue to make their way to the program each week. This month, the children are being taught using a Bible study on the book of Matthew from World Missionary Press. The teachers continue to encourage the children to put their faith and trust in Jesus, ensuring that their eternal life is guaranteed even as the world around them is falling apart. Just as the rice and beans nourish their bodies, God’s Word nourishes their souls. Please pray for the safety of the children and the staff as they travel to the program sites and back home and please keep the people of Haiti in your prayers, that the Lord’s peace will prevail in that dark land.” - Jim O., Haiti

In Mexico, The Amazing Life of Jesus Christ was given to a lady along with a personal testimony, as she sat in anguish outside a hospital. She had just received a diagnosis of breast cancer. Several weeks later, the lady euphorically reported, “I do not have cancer! God healed me!” She had prayerfully studied the booklet and has now received Christ as Savior and become part of a discipleship group. "I meet once a week with women who are incarcerated. Our jail is a holding facility for other counties that are overcrowded or lack female accommodations. We also have women from neighboring states. I share the Gospel teachings of Jesus and give each of them these booklets. They are spiritually hungry and ask for extra booklets to share with other inmates. About 400 inmates have received these booklets plus those taken to other inmates." -Jim M., USA "I was gifted The Way to God booklet by a group of people evangelizing at my workplace. I read the booklet, and it has really helped me, especially as a new convert. I would like to continue to read other powerful booklets for my growth in Christ."
-Christiana A., Ghana "Evangelism Beyond Denominations works in Ghana to share the Gospel with those who are often overlooked. In this work volunteers gather to find those bound by drugs, abuse, or any other device of the enemy to keep them from the life God has for them as His children. The Word of God, as available through World Missionary Press Scripture booklets and spoken to the heart by the Holy Spirit, can meet every pain and heal every soul." -George O., Ghana "A pastor with Jesus Is Real campaign, an Accra-based evangelism movement, reports of their encounter with a demon-possessed, epileptic woman at Katiejile, a small village in the northern part of the Volta Region. She was given a copy of The Way to God booklet but she rejected it because she did not want to have anything to do with Christ. Her teenage daughter, however, took it and placed it on a table in their room. The next morning, the woman sent her daughter to call the team so they would share the gospel with her. She claimed that during the night the gospel booklet shone as if it was on fire so she could not sleep. The team led her, the daughter, and two others in the house to Christ. The demons left her during prayer, and she was healed of the epilepsy as well that morning." -Bishop M., Ghana After more than a year of limited opportunities for outreach, many in Latin America are discovering new avenues for evangelism and increased interest by those looking for answers to life’s vital questions. WMP Scripture booklets are a vital part of this growing vision. “We are delivering literature in various cities of our country,” wrote Victor S. from Chile. “After the pandemic, there has been an awakening to evangelize, so the demand we have for booklets is great. We want to reach every corner, every house in our country with the message of the Gospel!” In Bolivia, some of the government officials who had wanted to shut down all churches several years ago were given jail sentences. While there, they received the gospel in prison and were born again! Two of them are now working for the Lord’s cause. As Peter G. pointed out, “The Word of our God is powerful, no matter where it gets handed out!” "God bless you, my brothers and sisters! I would like to share a testimony of evangelism from an event in Las Vegas on May 27, 2022. Our youth and their parents participated as we handed out WMP Scripture booklets along with water and chips in a local park. We used two booklets in each bag, Spanish and English. As we shared the Word of God around the park, people were definitely touched and the Lord's Presence was evident. Our church members also read them and took some to share at work and school. Thanks so much for sharing these free Scripture booklets with the world! You are a true blessing, and we're so glad to be partnering with you." God Bless You All, Mirna, Las Vegas The situation in Haiti can best be described as chaotic. A WMP distributor working in Haiti began their report thus: “To say that 2021 was a difficult year is an understatement; the year began with the entire country of Haiti in a state of unrest and things only got worse. We had a presidential assassination, multiple kidnappings, fuel shortages, out of control gang activity, plus 2 earthquakes and a hurricane; and yet through it all God still reigns.” --J.O. Yes, God is still seeking the people of Haiti, sending His message through His messengers. For more than 30 years Pastor Thony P. has been serving faithfully in Cap Haitian, northern Haiti, including WMP Scripture booklets in his various ministry opportunities. |
