Congress 2010

Posted on Aug 24, 2010

 

The 110 Literature Evangelists who attended the annual Congress (See Photo) held at Watson Park, Brisbane were encouraged by the success stories of God’s amazing leading from the last 12 months. They shared stories of faith and changed lives. Joe Paola from Melbourne had 5 of his customers baptised. In the past 12 months 121 Christian literature sales people (LEs) visited more than 800,000 homes in Australia and New Zealand. They delivered almost 1.5 Million (A$) worth of truth filled books, and gave 803 Bible studies. During the year 32 people were baptised as a direct result of the literature ministry.  LEs enrolled 1,226 people in Bible Course enrolments and 41,734 pieces of free literature were handed out.  The most popular five books sold were... . ‘Steps to Christ’, ‘My First Bible’, ‘Think Big’, ‘Great Controversy’ and ‘Stampley Bible’.  Twelve French speaking Literature Evangelists from New Caledonia and French Polynesia also attended the conference. During the past year, they delivered A$78,000 worth of French titles into homes. John Brereton, director of the literature ministry in the South Pacific, said “God is still actively working through His Literature Evangelists and the thousands of books and videos being placed in homes will are reaping and reap a harvest for Jesus when he soon returns. (See Gal 6:9) Praise God.”   Comments from Congress... What does Literature Ministry mean to me...    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1g3qeT8mhk
