Study Bibles are Needed
For the past five years, AFM has had the privilege of working with the Church Planting Movement in one of our close Latin American countries. For about three years we have provided about 4000 Bibles. Recently we have been asked to help procure study Bibles. Many of the 11,000 house church pastors have had no formal Biblical training. Providing them with study Bibles goes a long way in helping them to study and faithfully teach God's Word. When donating for Bibles please indicate on the memo section. All funds donated for Bibles are used exclusively for Bibles no administrative costs are incurred.
​
A number of years ago we received permission to bring in 2000 Bibles. Once they arrived in country it took us two additional years to move them off of the docks. We we were allowed to retrieve them our people moved very quickly! Our first Bibles were a non-study Bibles. Lately, we have been asked to provide study Bibles, These are much more expensive but well worth the cost in what it means to the pastors and their congregations!
We have had obstacles to overcome in the delivery of these Bibles but God has been faithful in helping us deliver these tools to the believers in need. But we need your help. Study Bibles cost us between $10.00-$20,00 per copy. That is the equivalent of about a month's wage for the average Cuban. Will you help us fund the purchase of more Bibles?
Dr. Val recently returned from a trip to Cuba.
He spoke to a team of pastors and missionaries.
Specifically, he spoke on the Biblical definition of marriage which is under
attack in many countries today.
​
Additionally, he held a day-long seminar on the theology of worship as it pertains to individual discipleship and corporate worship.
We continue to teach via Zoom. Praying with groups around the
world via Google Meet. And we are engaged in fellowship with
believers via WhatsApp and Signal.
​
As these projects come online we will need funds to provide
equipment lear and perhaps internet access for difficult-to-reach
areas. We will bring our needs to you for your prayerful
consideration when we have confirmed needs.
