Church Raises Funds to Send BibleSticks to Soldiers

by | 3 March, 2011 | 0 comments

This past Sunday, Granby (MO) Christian Church finished its fund-raising campaign to send “BibleSticks,” small digital audio players preloaded with a recording of the New Testament, to U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan. For $25 church members could send a BibleStick overseas, plus response cards for the servicemen and women to request Bibles for family members.

The church worked with Faith Comes By Hearing (Albuquerque, NM).

“Chaplains from every branch of the military have been flooding FCBH with requests . . . more than 400 chaplains themselves [are] using BibleSticks in pre-deployment briefings, counseling sessions, Bible studies, weekly chapels and other spiritual services,” said an article in The Joplin Globe. “It is estimated that more than 95,000 of the audio devices are now in the field.”
