Activity highlights:

• The Lord is doing marvelous things in Wickliffe, Ohio. We believe Satan suffered great loss as we went door knocking. Despite the weather, a snowy day, we rejoiced in the Lord and knocked on peoples’ doors. After door knocking we baptized a couple in their home during a birthday party.
• Today, Monday 26th, we went to the local campuses, Cleveland State University and Case Western Reserve University ( CSU & CWRU). We were able to distribute 102 Bibles in total.
• At CWRU, We gave away 38 bibles and had a number of students who wanted further contact this week. Most of these students who received a Bible also gave us their contact information. We were blessed to have many students from the club on campus and the local saints come and help with the table. In one occasion a student began a conversation about receiving the Recovery Version but was interrupted by a phone call. Despite being interrupted she kept coming back to the table to continue the conversation and received a Bible.
• In another occasion a student came by even though he was rushing to class and was not a believer and took a Bible. To our surprise he came back after his class and we talked with him for an hour about the Lord and then he prayed with us to receive the Lord Jesus!
• At CSU, we gave away 64 Bibles! Many students were so happy to receive a copy of the Recovery Version. Some visited the table twice to receive a copy for their friends and others brought their friends to receive their Bibles. One of them said that he was not interested but the other, after knowing that it was free, he gladly received a copy. The other student seeing that his friend said yes, also took the Bible. Praise the Lord! The responses from people was that of a “What? Free Bibles?”.
• In another case, a student who had a booth of her club set beside us told us that she had received this same Bible before. This was our first contact with her. Praise the Lord for what He is doing in Wickliffe, Ohio.
• A girl from Hong Kong called on the Lord and the sisters took her to read the Bible. She read the footnote. She was hungry for human contact. She wanted someone to spend time with her so we connected to the local saints right away.
• Professors, administrators and staff came to the table to get their free Bibles. An administrator lowered the rental fee from $500 to $100. The brother presented to him the Recovery Version and said that it was awesome what we were doing. Praise the Lord!
