Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!

Church Website Ministry:
I received a call from Pastor Glenn Hermanson of Bible Baptist Church, Borger Texas. He had seen our ministry around and decided to call us to set up a website. bbcborger.org was set up on WordPress. I provided training for Pastor Hermanson.

They have truly been a blessing to me! Thank you for your time and for the opportunity to grow in God’s Word through these studies. God bless.”
Tract Ministry: We have “given out” over 106,000 Bible Tracts online.
We have the Bible Tract “God’s Bridge to Eternal Life” available in seven languages (gods-bridge.com). In February we embarked on an advertising campaign to get the Bible Tract out to unsaved people via Facebook ads.We started with English, French and German. The tracts were hit, but the traffic was not as much as we hoped for. I added Spanish to the mix. Spanish did do better than the rest. In March I started a new campaign which included Spanish and Arabic. The Arabic tract took off and is averaging between 45-50 delivered tracts per day. These tracts are being delivered to United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Algeria, Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Libya, Saudi Arabia and Yemen.The Spanish tract is averaging 5-10 tracts per day. The tracts are being delivered to Guatemala, Mexico and Panama.I decided to try and add the Chinese tract to the distribution, showing it to China, Singapore, and Taiwan. This tract is doing 7-10 views per day. These ads are also being shared! To date Facebook is reporting 12,569 Link Clicks, reaching 676,702 people! Please pray for guidance and pray the tracts will reach lost people.

If you want, you can choose what language and or countries you would like your tracts to be distributed to. I will endeavor to give you statistics on what your money did to distribute the Gospel to a lost and dying world!
Social Networking Outreach: I get new requests on my evangelistic Facebook account regularly. I now have 2586 “friends” in my evangelistic Facebook account. This is a valuable tool to reach the unsaved.
