Thank You Precious BCM Partners--The Best is Yet to Come!
Tuesday, February 14, 2012 at 01:16PM God blessed us with a fruitful year of ministry in 2011. Lives were impacted on both sides of the border… in those who gave, served, and prayed, and also by those who were served and blessed by the hope they received!
Thank you so very much for giving financially and prayerfully to make this happen! Your love and faith-filled gifts are much appreciated!
Through many enthusiastic and wonderful groups BCM was able to build 97 homes, 2 church buildings, 1 classroom, 1 dormitory at a rehab center, 1 bathroom/shower facility at a different rehab center, 39 latrines, and other smaller projects.
As of this date BCM has distributed over 80,000 Bibles and Purple Books and over 39,000 of these Purple Books have been recorded completed. Just how much difference can a Bible and discipleship course, along with much prayer, make to spark a permanent, eternal change in people’s lives and even that of a city or nation?
Vicente Morales, the President of the Evangelical Alliance of Tijuana, which represents 1,360 ministries in this city and its suburbs, wrote a letter of thanks on behalf of all the different ministries which have been helped by the ministry of Bibles and Purple Books.
He writes, “The study of God’s Word with the Purple Book has positively impacted many people in the northern region of Baja California.... This material is landing in the hands of non believers, new believers, and mature believers, in different places like, Rehab Centers, Orphanages, Jails, Factories, Youth Clubs, Rest Homes, Churches, and thousands of homes, It is being used in many ways such as in, Bible Studies, New Converts Classes, Moral Education in Jails and rehab centers, Sunday School Classes, etc. The method of distribution and follow up which has been implemented with the Discipleship Plan has given us very good and amazing results, in great part due to the fact that the material itself is free of charge to those who receive it, but in greater part because together with the material also comes the agreement of the monthly follow up which is made between the BCM Regional Directors and the Group Leaders of every new group that is started.
We have also seen that the level of crime and violence in general, has decreased and we firmly believe that this is yet another positive result that the distribution of Bibles and Purple Books is bringing to this city, Glory to God for this!
This Discipleship Plan, and the way it is done, together with its results is something that has never been seen in this country, and it is bringing many unbelievers to place their faith in Jesus, and many believers to move forward in their faith, it is also causing much growth in the hundreds of churches that have received this blessing, and as a result it has been igniting much needed encouragement in the lives of their pastors and congregations."
I am enclosing a recent testimony of an inmate that God touched through the Bible and Purple Book ministry to transform his sadness and anger into a new creation in Christ now with a life of hope. I believe this is the type of transformation in Christ we hope for…
MIGUEL PALACIOS GARCIA writes, “I have been filled with sadness and anger for the past 29 years that I have been a prisoner, I have not known God or had any spiritual guidance. This book has opened up a new perspective for me, that I can change my life and help others, and if God grants me the wisdom and understanding I can even become a great preacher of His word some day, but first I want to learn more about baptism and be baptized. I thank God and you my brothers for making it possible for me to receive this little book that has taught me to see my broken life from another point of view. .May God bless and protect you and your precious families with His Holy Spirit.”
BCM was blessed with a very good year through our Lord Jesus Christ and through many blessed partners like you who gave, prayed and served!
Thank you very much! Please prayerfully consider standing again with us through 2012!
With gratitude!
