India (MNN) ― Here's  an update on a story we reported last month out of India. 

Audio Scripture units were the last 50 units available for distribution via Audio Scripture Ministries in India.

The units were being sent to an office that was last on the distribution list and had been eagerly awaiting the arrival of the units, but they never arrived.

JP Sundararajan with ASM explains: "Essentially the units were stolen en route and replaced with a copy of an old Bible and some old medicine bottles etc.  Somebody just swapped packages."

ASM immediately sent 100 replacement units to their partner in Bangalore, but they're praying more can be sent soon. Each unit reaches an average of 10 people with the Gospel. Ideally, the team would like to have 1000 players for the February distribution.

The team is lining up a distribution in North India and Northeast India. Pray--coordination of this drop is especially challenging. 

It costs about $50 to provide a unit for a family in their own heart language. Many of the people in the region are uneducated and illiterate. Scriptures in audio in a language they understand can change lives. To help them reach their goal for the distribution, click here.
