What Is Going on in China Today

According to the American Bible Society, the church in China is growing faster than one can possibly imagine. Chinese church leaders report that thousands turn to Christ every single day, with 500,000 baptisms every year. The new believers have one thing in common: they all want a Bible of their own. But with the church growing so fast, there is a famine of Bibles in the land. In some areas, 100 persons have to share the same Bible.

Earlier this year the Chinese government gave permission for the printing of 3.5 million Bibles in China itself. They will be printed in Nanjing, a miraculous cooperation between the government of China and the United Bible Societies, of which the American Bible Society was a founding member. The printing presses are ready to roll with the capacity to print 50 Bibles per minute. It is only the cost of the paper that is missing.

Every $1 donation for this effort will help put a Bible in the hands of one or more Chinese believers. A roll of paper to print 600 Bibles can be paid for with a $600 gift. I urge you to join me in taking part in this important achievement. To give a secure gift online, please visit ChinaBibles.AmericanBible.org/ If that looks too complicated for you, you may send a check online to American Bible Society. Mark you donation as Bibles for China. If you can’t send it that way, the mailing address is:

Thank you and God bless you.
