Pocket Size Bibles for Distribution - The Word teaches us in Romans 10 “How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?   And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!”  There is a supply of pocket size Bibles (NT with Psalms & Proverbs) available in the North Hall bookcase to hand out to individuals you come in contact with.  They are free of charge and available for anyone who would like to share the Gospel with others.  If the supply is depleted when you go to pick some up they will be replenished.  If you have any questions please contact Bros. Bob Bradle or Tim Martin.
