Standard Publishing Donates Books, Resources

by | 27 July, 2011 | 0 comments

Standard Publishing has partnered with Matthew 25: Ministries to reach out through church communities ministering in disaster areas around the world. To date, Standard Publishing has donated more than 19 tractor-trailer loads of Christian books and other resources to Matthew 25: Ministries for redistribution worldwide. These messages of hope and Bible truth have gone, for example, to sufferers in the wake of natural disasters in Joplin, Missouri; Alabama; Japan; and Haiti. Each year Matthew 25: Ministries serves more than 12 million individuals in the U.S. and around the world, largely through redistribution of donated goods. “We are pleased to work with Standard Publishing to offer these enriching materials to children and adults around the world,” said Tim Mettey, vice president and disaster relief coordinator for the Cincinnati-based mission.
