Bibles for the Persecuted Church

Bibles for the Persecuted Church this year involves Passport with no boundaries  which encourages Christians to pray and provide Bibles for our brothers and sisters in Christ who are suffering for their faith in Jesus. These suffering believers simply plead; “Pray for us and please send Bibles.”

The program is run over 3 weeks, mainly in October, but can be run anytime to suit church calendars. Church members are encouraged to join with other individuals, families, Bible study groups, youth groups within their church community to pray and put aside $2 per day for Bibles for persecuted believers.

Bible League provides a free kit to churches including the 21-day devotional booklet, Passport with no boundaries, Bible money boxes, step-by-step instructions, bulletin inserts, a poster, as well as DVD presentations. To learn more view Bibles for the Persecuted Church

Taking part in the program will help each church member identify with persecuted Christians and personally provide encouragement to persecuted believers through the provision of prayer and Bibles.

Also pray for us. Pray that God will give us an opportunity to tell people his message. I am in prison for doing this. But pray that we can continue to tell people the secret truth that God has made known about Christ. Colossians 4:3 (ERV). 

We thank God that people are turning to Christ, even in the midst of persecution—but millions still need a Bible.

Sue loves the ministry of Bible League and this year choose Bibles for the Persecuted Church program.  She enjoyed this program so much that she has asked for another money box after filling her first one.  The money box sits on her kitchen bench to remind Sue to pray and give regularly. Go Sue.

Will you join with many others like Sue and respond to our brothers and sister's cry and provide them through Passport with no boundaries the prayer and Bibles they so desperately need?
