First Benefit
When you donate a used Bible, it is sold at an affordable
cost to Christian leaders and pastors in India , many of whom
may not be able to afford a new one. They spend many hours
reaching the under developed rural areas where even clean
drinking water is a luxury. These used Bibles also benefit
believers who deeply desire but don't possess even a single
Bible. So, you can be sure that your Bibles will be
wonderfully used and treasured.
Second Benefit
The funds generated from your donated Used Bibles and
Christian books again help a second time. They are used to
provide Bibles in Indian languages reaching the heart of the
country.
| When you donate:

Two Bibles = 1 regional language
