USA radio station collects Bibles for distribution

By June 22, 2005

USA (MNN/WIHS) — Christian radio stations around the United States are having an impact on missions around the world. WIHS 104.9 FM out of Middletown, Connecticut is one such radio station.

Between now and July 1st, WIHS is encouraging its listeners to donate their unused Bibles. They’re partnering with the Bible League as there’s a great need for used Bibles throughout the English speaking world. Bible League officials say there are thousands of English speaking Christians in our world who have never had a Bible. How can they grow in their faith and eventually share the Gospel if they don’t have the Gospel to share with someone?

After they collect the Bibles, WIHS will then box them up and ship them to the Bible League for their distribution program. They’re asking listeners to contribute $1 for each Bible to help with shipping costs.

According to the Bible League’s Philippines office, an average of 200 people per day come to get used Bibles. Many are so eager to know more, they sign up for Bible study courses. The news that Bibles are available travels fast.

Pray for WIHS and their listeners. Pray that God would move in the hearts of many people to help with this Bible collection program. Pray, too, that as a result of these Bibles Christians will grow in their faith, enabling them to share Christ with many.
