Dear Friend,
We would like to thank all of our friends for their constant support in the work of the ministry. We know that many of you are very interested in the progress of the new factory. The erection of the steel work is completed and from the photo above you can see the ground floor, first floor and second floor beginning to be developed. If all the work goes smoothly during this month we hope that both concrete floors will be in place by the end of the month. Please continue to pray for this major project that we will have wisdom and guidance as many decisions are made for the future advancement of the ministry.

 

Reaching Boys and Girls in Europe

“Dear Samuel, It is amazing how the Lord is using Every Home Crusade. Thank you for saying yes to the printing of 10,000 copies of the booklet “Meet the King” in the Basque language which is spoken in the North of Spain. We will begin the distribution of these booklets at a book fair during the first week of December. This is the largest annual cultural event of the Basque country.
Each year more than 100,000 people attend the book fair over the course of 4 days. It is an ideal opportunity to distribute the booklets to Basque children. As the first day of the book fair is dedicated to school children many parents are especially eager to find reading material for their children in the Basque language. This provides an ideal venue for the distribution of Christian literature. All of the Basque believers who have participated in this ministry have been encouraged by the freedom which they have been able to engage people in conversation and distribution of Christian literature.
Outside of the book fair we will distribute some of the booklets to the evangelical churches and we will encourage them to offer the booklet on the radio and television programmes that they produce. I am also certain that the Basque believers will make the booklets available to children in Catholic schools. There is a group of Basque believers who will be working to distribute literature in Catholic schools. They have achieved a measure of success in this ministry as they have found schools willing to allow them to distribute such literature.

CEF in Denmark printed 10,000 copies of “Meet the King” booklet last year. However, they are unable to print more due to a lack of finance and I am wondering if you can help us print a further 20,000 copies in the Danish language. The following is a testimony from Denmark:
A grandmother told how her grandchild had never heard the Gospel from her parents because they are not interested in God. The grandmother gave her granddaughter a copy of “Meet the King”. Several weeks later, she told her grandmother “I have asked Jesus to come into my heart and be my Saviour.” A few days ago the grandmother was travelling by train with her grandchild. They sat next to a young man. Suddenly the grandchild asked the young man, “Can I tell you a story?” The young man was surprised and said, “Yes.” Then the grandchild took “Meet the King” from her bag and told the story exactly word for word. Only the Holy Spirit had taught this little girl how to be a missionary. This is why I would like to ask for your help again in the printing of more of these booklets. Every blessing, Bogdan Bassara, CEF.
As part of the “Bible and Book Project” we heard the need for French Bibles and Books from William and Rosalind Brown for their work in Ivory Coast. We purchased 18,000 French Bibles and 50 Cartons of French books. We asked William to sell these Bibles for £1.00 each and the books at low prices. Having a nominal charge helps to ensure that the Bibles and books get into the hands of those who really want them. Most people in Ivory Coast could afford this price for a Bible. However for those in extreme poverty we agreed that they should receive a Bible free of charge.
The aim of this project is to subsidize the cost of Bibles and books so that people can purchase a copy of the Word of God at a price that they can afford. Apart from the initial cost of the Bibles we have the additional costs of shipping and customs clearance. We would like to thank our supporters for their help and encouragement as we develop this project. We are very grateful to William for his work in Ivory Coast in getting this literature spread far and wide. The following is his report.

Live ammunition in Ivory Coast!

Ivory Coast has known political turmoil in recent years with many having to flee the rebel held north to seek refuge in the south. As a mission our objective also is to see people liberated! Not just from the oppression of civil war but to see people set free from the bondage of sin by the gospel of Jesus Christ! To accomplish this we need weapons! We praise God for the vital role that EHC is playing in getting ‘live ammunition’, the Word of God, into Ivory Coast!
Last year a container was sent out containing 10,000 Chronological Bible lessons for Sunday Schools. These lessons have now been distributed throughout the country and many have testified to the tremendous blessing these lessons have been in reaching boys and girls with the gospel.
Earlier this year when teaching in the rebel held north I noticed that some believers did not possess their own Bible. Also I observed a great need for good reading material in order for faithful men to be equipped for the ministry. Paul encouraged Timothy to ‘give attendance to reading.’

I praise God that, once again, EHC has risen to the challenge! At the end of May another container was shipped off to Ivory Coast containing 18,000 Bibles and 50 boxes of French books and also DVDs for evangelising Children.
During my recent visit to Ivory Coast in October I was able to personally witness this ‘ammunition’ being distributed. We travelled to the extreme North with the material. What a joy to see people possessing their own Bible for the first time. What a blessing it will be to them in their walk with God to be able to study scripture for themselves instead of getting it second hand!

I am constantly asked for good books by Pastors and Lay preachers. Until now, some had only one or two books which they cherished. A workman is only as good as his tools! Now, with these additional books, these men will be able to build their own little libraries to enable them to be thoroughly equipped for the Work of God so that they can teach others. 2 Tim 2:2 Lives have been liberated by the power of the gospel and just last month one new convert travelled 300 miles to attend a course to learn more about God. Such is the power of the ammunition of God’s Word!
We want to sincerely thank EHC for their partnership in the gospel. William and Rosalind Brown, UFM.

Requesting Literature for Equatorial Guinea

“Dear Every Home Crusade, On behalf of the churches in Equatorial Guinea we want to give you a heartfelt “thank you” for helping spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ around the world through your ministry of literature.
As a mission we are training future pastors, leaders, evangelists, and church planters at a 4-year Bible school, so we continue to maintain an interdenominational presence within the country among the churches that send their students to us for further preparation. The Gospel is being preached in the costal city of Bata, but there are large areas of the country without a Gospel witness and without a church presence in the interior parts of the country. As the only Spanish speaking country in Africa, we are quite isolated linguistically, so we are always faced with the challenge of requiring Christian literature in Spanish to help facilitate evangelistic efforts and campaigns.
We are writing to ask for any Christian literature in Spanish – evangelistic tracts or any other literature that would facilitate the Gospel of Jesus Christ here in Equatorial Guinea. Any literature that we receive would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your service and partnership in the Gospel. J. C.

50,000 Christians engaged in Personal Evangelism

ristians who have received ten of our Scripture calendars, 10 Gospels, 10 Gospel booklets, and 10 Children’s booklets who will visit 10 unsaved families, present the calendar as a little gift and then take time to share the Gospel message from the other literature. They will then leave the literature, pray for these people and invite them to church services during the incoming year.
The supplies of literature have safely arrived in Russia, Kazakhstan, Moldova, Belarus, and the consignment for the Ukraine should arrive shortly. The leaders of Bible Mission have been training 50,000 Christians to conduct personal evangelism and how to use this literature. Altogether there are 1,400 churches taking part in the project. Please pray for all of this evangelism that will be taking place and that, through this, many precious souls will be won to our Lord Jesus Christ. Bible Mission have been amazed at the number of churches willing to co-operate in this project. Other churches are now contacting them and asking if they can take part in the project but, as all half a million calendars have been already allocated, they cannot accept any further help in the distribution.

“Dear Samuel, Warm greetings from France! We praise God for the material He provided through Every Home Crusade for the campaigns of CEF in France in 2008. God really blessed every campaign in a special way. We trust that God will give fruit which will remain for eternity and that He will receive all of the glory.
God continues to open doors widely in many new areas in France. For 2009 we trust God to be able to distribute between 50,000 and 60,000 evangelism envelopes with a Gospel of John in French and a copy of “Meet the King” in French. These will be distributed in 6 or 7 regions of France. All of these areas don’t yet have full-time CEF workers. In order to start planning these campaigns we would like you to consider again, before God, if Every Home Crusade could help with the printing and providing of these Gospels and “Meet the King” booklets. Johan Bloemhof.
During the month we took delivery of 40 Tonnes of Paper at a cost of over £20,000. We are now planning to ship container loads of Literature to Nigeria, India, Venezuela and the Philippines.
We would like to extend the Season’s Greetings and a Happy and Blessed New Year to all our friends and supporters.

Yours for a Great Revival,

Samuel Adams and Clive Allen
