Get the Word Out
Thank you to everyone who’s responded to our new Bible
Sponsorship scheme, which premiered in the last issue of the
Vital Link – it’s been exciting seeing so many people supporting
spiritual freedom for our beneficiaries in developing countries.
The scheme is still running: just £8 could pay for the gift of a
bible (in the recipient’s own language) on one of our overseas
trips, while £20 could pay for a study Bible for a pastor or
trainee on one of our overseas Churches Inc training courses.
There’s also a combo package of a wheelchair and bible
sponsorship for £50. All sponsors receive a bookmark to say
thank you for supporting a disabled person or pastor in a
developing country, and to act as a focus for prayer - wheelchair
sponsors receive a full sponsor certificate too. If you’re
interested in finding out more, or supporting this scheme,
please get in touch with the office on 01372 749955 - we can
take sponsorships by card over the phone.
Your sponsorships bring physical and spiritual freedom and
opportunities

together, and contributing what they can while receiving
