“EVERY DAY, THE BIBLE HELPS ME CHANGE…”
The Bibles you help deliver to remote villages are giving the lost a chance to find new life in Christ!
From 15 to 71 years old, Rafael* spent his life “lost in alcohol.” Growing up in poverty, in a family of alcoholics, he had lost hope of ever breaking free. Day after day, he was drunk and, as he says, “out of my senses.”
Though Rafael had no relationship with God, when he learned the local Bible Society would be showing the JESUS Film at a church in his village in Ecuador, he decided to attend.
The movie impacted him deeply. “I watched with joy and shame over how sinful I was, but also with hope for the forgiveness of my God,” he explains. “Seeing the life of our Savior helped me leave everything bad in my life. I feel the love of God!”
Partners like you helped provide this life-transforming opportunity for Rafael and others in his village. He also received his first Bible — in his heart language — which helps him continue to
understand God’s Word and grow in his faith.
Now, he shares, “I feel happy and thank God for rescuing me from alcohol. Every day, the Bible helps me change, to be calmer, to speak with love to my family, to have faith even through difficult times.”
Thank you for your faithful support, which helps provide God’s Word to people in remote villages throughout South America and beyond. You’re helping them come to know our Savior and grow in their faith!
