Bringing Bibles to Christians in

LAOS AND CHINA

THE CAUSE

We’re on a mission to distribute Bibles to rural Christians in Laos and China, where the presence of God’s Word can truly transform lives.

Sadly, the scarcity of Bibles in these regions is staggering, and the demand far outweighs the available supply. But your kind contribution can make a tangible difference in the lives of these believers and enable others to encounter the life-changing message of the Gospel for the first time.

THE IMPACT

By making a gift today, you will help:

  • Provide Bible paper to print free and subsidised Bibles for poor Christians in rural China.
  • Distribute 6,000 sets of Bible resources to lay preachers in China.
  • Create programme materials for youth leaders in China.
  • Distribute over 13,000 copies of seven Scripture-based books to Chinese youths.
  • Distribute 2,000 Lao Bibles, 2,000 Hmong Bibles and 3,000 Lao New Testaments to the poorest Christians in rural Laos.

In 2020, The China Daily reported that around 600 million Chinese lived on less than $228 monthly, rendering Bible ownership unattainable for many Christians. Guo, aged sixty, faced this reality until her church, supported by the United Bible Societies (UBS), distributed free Bibles in 20220. 

Previously, despite over forty years of faith, Guo’s knowledge was limited due to the lack of a Bible. After receiving her very own Bible for the first time, Guo was filled with tremendous joy.

“It is more than just a book. It is a lifeline, a source of hope, and the key to a beautiful life. Owning a Bible is not merely a desire; it is a spiritual necessity. The Bible contains God’s teachings, and without it, my faith would be weak and incomplete,” shares Guo.

Moreover, the Bible has improved her sleep and brought peace. Guo attributes her transformation and strengthened faith to the Word of God, which has extended its impact beyond herself.

Can you help the Word of God to transform more lives like Guo’s?
