Gift 9: Give to help persecuted believers own their own Bible

Description

The Word of God remains a lamp to our feet and a light to our path. It also gives us peace and comfort when we face life’s difficulties. Sadly, not every believer has access to the Bible. There are persecuted believers who still don’t own a Bible because it’s not easily accessible in their countries because it’s illegal or it’s available but not in a language they can understand. So when believers receive Bibles, they rejoice upon being gifted their own Bible, and they treasure it like gold.

An Open Doors worker in Africa that helped to distribute Bibles among young people has seen firsthand how precious this Book is and how important it is to make it more accessible so believers can grow in their faith. That is why he’s so thankful for your support in helping make Bibles available to believers. “I thank you for your contribution to spread the Kingdom of God,” he said.

By giving a gift today to help persecuted believers own their own Bible, you can help encourage them in their faith as it will assist in providing, printing, and distributing physical, audio or digital Bibles in their own.

R160 could provide one believer with a Bible in their own language.
R400 could provide one believer with an audio or digital Bible.
R830 could reach one believer participating in an Open Doors literacy class with a Bible.
