Financial Blessings for Literature Projects

Written by Joel Purcell

We received encouraging news from SIM headquarters recently.  Significant donations were given to both the Francophone PBS and the LABC.  These contributions bump the Francophone PBS up to 49% funding and the LABC to 27%.  We thank the Lord for these generous donations.

Latin America Bible Commentary Support

Written by Joel Purcell

This project is a joint venture with SIM and Langham Literature with each seeking 50% of the total funding.  In June, I was told the amount SIM would be responsible for during the year.  I received word in July that a foundation had decided to underwrite the budget for the entire year!  Praise the Lord for His provision.

Please continue to pray for the editors and writers of this huge effort.  Pray that every writer will be accurate to the Scriptures and guided by the Holy Spirit.
