2 Million Bibles Distributed
We at Bibles for America (BfA) are thrilled to announce that we have now given away 2 million Bibles! We have been eagerly anticipating this milestone and are thankful to the Lord for bringing us to this day. More than 100,000 Bibles have already gone out in 2022, more than we have ever distributed by this point in the year.
We look to the Lord that we will be able to give away another 3 million Bibles by 2030. Thanks to our new distribution facility, we are able to maintain an effective pace of receiving, packaging, and distributing the New Testament Recovery Version to so many hungry seekers of God throughout the US. We have already received an order of 200,000 Bibles this year and will be receiving another order of 100,000 copies this fall. We plan to continue fulfilling orders at this increased rate with a view to reaching our next milestone.
Video Studio
We are excited to share with you a preview of our latest project at BfA: the construction of a new video studio next to our office. We’ve found that video is many people’s preferred method of consuming content, so we’re burdened to increase our video production capacity and output. We want to produce more videos to reach a wide range of people with the gospel, and to help believers know the fundamental truths in the Bible. We also plan to produce a series of videos on how to use the New Testament Recovery Version.
A blueprint for the studio has already been drafted and approved, bids have been received, and a contractor has been selected. We hope to meet with the contractors and commence the building work soon. Please pray for the timely completion of this studio so that many more people can be saved and come to the full knowledge of the truth through these videos.
First Tours of Our Distribution Center
During the Memorial Day weekend and again in July, we welcomed visitors to tour our new distribution center in Anaheim, CA. Approximately 300 people participated in the tours, where they enjoyed seeing the facilities and the process of receiving, packaging, and preparing Bibles to be shipped to recipients all over the country.
We plan to continue to offer these tours twice a year in July and December. Be sure to join a tour next time, or feel free to email us at contributions@bfa.org if you have any questions. We also hope to offer additional times for group tours throughout the year.
Distribution of Free Book Sets
BfA is currently offering free hard copies of Basic Elements of the Christian Life, vols. 1-3 to the general public. Since launching at the end of April, more than 8,600 orders have been placed. This excellent response confirms our feeling regarding the value of these books to seeking Christians.
“I just want to thank you so very much for the opportunity to grow closer to the Lord Jesus Christ.” —Kelly
The book sets are being distributed through our warehouse in Chicago. We ask for your prayers that the books could continue to go out in a timely manner, free from any complicating factors or delays.
New Video: The Bible’s Secret for Dealing with Anxiety
We’d like to share our new video we released earlier this year based on some verses from Philippians 4.
Thank you again for all your generous support for BfA. We pray that God’s Word will continue to spread throughout this country in 2022.
