This report will not be complete without rendering my sincere thanks and gratitude to all those involved in this ministry of providing and equipping the teaching of bible studies to children and youth. This ministry fills a big gap in the teaching of children in a number of churches. This service is of such immeasurable good I have to let you know the magnitude of your help to those churches using your materials. Thank you very much.

We were quite privileged to have some bible studies materials like the "Life Answers", "Bible Teacher", etc. It will please you to know that some teachers were so challenged by the devotional materials, now they can have a systematic learning by using those materials. They also appreciate the help and direction for various children programmes - pictures, memory verses, songs, etc. given to them. Their teaching has been so enriched. One teacher put it this way "Now I know where I am going. When you know where you are going with the proper direction (a compass) you do not go astray or grope in darkness". How true!

Thanks so much for the shipment of books! It is a great blessing! I picked the boxes up this past Thursday evening. All 52 of them were in good shape. Many of the boxes contained children's books.
The remaining 18 boxes contained Bibles or reference books or a combination of the two. I plan on using these books to establish libraries in two districts here in Ghana where our pastors don't have access to these types of books. I was thrilled to see some holiness classics among the reference books. In the far north of Ghana, particularly, access to Bibles is difficult and they have been asking for Bibles.

I do teach in a bible school so we use the adult teaching materials. The Study from these books have really whipped up their enthusiasm, and they are even more eager to learn. The students really ask such thought provoking questions that make me also to sit down and study to always be ahead of them in knowledge. Some of the students are pastors of some small churches who are not affiliated to any Christian organization body. Because of this, their approach to church activities have been rather myopic. But these materials have challenged them. Some are developing foresight and insight into proper doctrinal issues. They are now learning the way of systematic teaching and learning. They never stop thanking and blessing you all.

You may not know Ghana, but rest assured that the materials you constantly provide and ship at your own expense, will be found among your jewels before the throne of God. You will see the people your materials helped to make it to heaven. Thank you so much.

I chanced across some music materials which I gave to some musicians. I wish you were there to see their joy and dancing and the "Thank You" "God richly bless you!!". You are indeed touching every fiber of Christian teaching with your materials. Two of the musicians are High School teachers. They were so happy that they have got materials to teach the student choirs now. God richly bless you and thank you so much. We appreciate you all.

-I want to inform your office that the materials I collected from you have really enhanced the teaching ministry of the church very much. We used them in our adult and youth Sunday School classes and it has brought growth and commitment to our members. I have confidence that by the time we finish using all the materials, things will be very different in the activities of the church. All the materials collected are very good for Christian education and more especially the bible expositor and illuminator - Oh! I like the material very much as a pastor and overseer of the church.
-Child Evangelism Fellowship West Division of Ghana organized a rally for school children and other Sunday School classes. The booklets and tracts given to us has been distributed to all the 267 children and the 30 teachers.
Thank you so much.

Now I can quickly refer to my concordance at the back of my bible if I have to get some scripture. This has come about because of the Bible I am using. The name of the Lord be praise.

We start from house to house, after we have finished preaching the message, we then start by distributing the magazine to them. The number of converts this week is 5 and the total number at church is up to 85. The steps we take to train new converts is that we give each a magazine to take home and study one topic a week.

The evangelism team reported that after distributing the books, 147 children have been reached for Christ. It is my humble prayer that you will continue to supply us with such powerful materials so we can equip the believer for the work of ministry and for building up the body of Christ.
Kotobabi Secondary School- There are about 150 pupils. They study in groups of 5. They have shown great interest and even the Muslim pupils are learning and there is some form of change in their attitudes.

Participants at the Child Evangelism East Division training conference received booklets and tracts to conduct an evangelism outreach after the conference. Over 1,700 children prayed to receive Jesus as their Lord as a result. The teachers, children, Local Council of Churches and the executives of world vision were so happy at the booklets used for the evangelism. According to them, they never had a training like these before. Neither do
they have such Gospel books for evangelism before and they have millions of children in the villages which no one is reaching for the Lord. These training opened the eyes of the Sunday School teachers to know how important it is to lead a child to Christ. The people really appreciated you and the donors of these wonderful materials. Continue the good work for the Lord.

We deem it grateful to thank God that He is using us to bring more souls to His Kingdom. The booklets given to us were used in so many programmes like a children’s rally, open air meetings and Good News Club party. Children and adults were ministered to through these occasions and over 300 of them prayed to receive Jesus as their personal Lord and Savior. May God richly bless you for the good work you are doing for the Lord. -To God be the glory, great things He has done. We, the students of this students movement, write to express our profound gratitude for the priceless support you offered during our annual crusade. The tracts and the discovery series given us was fairly distributed on the three days of the crusade. The tracts, as well as the discovery series,
enlightened most people who were interviewed about things they didn’t know with respect to the “right steps to knowing God”. It is well admitted that the crusade was an impartful and inspiring one that not only helped Christians rededicate their commitment to God but also won souls for the Lord. God richly bless and replenish this work for the Lord.

We wish to express our appreciation for the gift of Sunday School materials. We report that the use of these materials has attracted many disciples who previously did not patronize Christian Education programmes. There have been numerous testimonies from our church members expressing how much the lessons have grounded them in their faith.
