 After visiting a child in the hospital from a brain hemhorage I plan on using the gospels to share Christ with those in the brain trauma ward. 
 Street ministry, coffeehouses, missions trips. I want to thank my sponsors because they have helped people get saved, we've had a few people get saved at the coffeehouses and street ministry, we also used them at the tent revival and people got saved there and they are giving them out as well. God is faithful and awesome and ty Sponsor may God bless you richly and abundantly for your generous giving. 
 I was taking a walk in the park as i normally do and i noticed a man setting at a picnic table. On the walking trail i passed him 2 times and failed in weekness to give him a pocket testament, saying the last time i will give him one on the third trip. Well he wasn't there on the third trip so i sat down at that same table for a rest thinking how i had failed that person when he comes back and sits down. We exchanged a greeting and small talk and as i got up to leave i asked him if i could leave him something to read, he said yes and actually thanked me. I knew that i had two strikes but i refused to be struck out, praise God. 
 We have a group of people from our local church go door to door and minister to people. We thank you for your help to spread the word. 
 I so enjoy sharing the Word of God to all those that are hungry for a change in their lives. One lady said all I have is a King James Bible and it is so hard to read. I love this NIV(large print) you have. She was so happy to have the Bible in a language she could read and understand that I ended up buying her a complete NIV Bible (large print). Yes it is expensive but I said groceries will be a little lighter this week. I fully trust God...He will provide.

 My husband and I have an evangelism group that meets in our home on Wed. nights. We take the Gospel of Jesus Christ out to the streets as a group and also share our faith individually. One of our friends in the group gave us the link to your website to be able to order these Gospels of John; it will be great to have these to give to people that we share with because many do not have a Bible and we will at least be able to give them something to get them started in the reading of the Word of God. Thank you for being so willing to share these for free. We will however pay as often as we can in order to support your ministry. May the Lord God bless you. 
 leaving them in restaurants, car dealerships, shopping malls, pay phones anywhere i can think of! God bless! 
 I left a Gospel on the free resources shelf for visitors at the chapel. I gave a Gospel to the fast food drive-through server when she gave me the food. 
 I am a high school student who is trying to spead what I have, Jesus. Thank you so much for sponsoring me. 
 My husband and I travel a lot because of his job and I just wanted to start spreading the Word while home AND away from home. Thank you so much for helping to make that possible. 
 i plan to share the gospels with people that come to a ministry that i volunteer at when they come to talk to me to get an emergency food box made for them. 
 I came to receive Christ as my savior about 3 years ago. Over the past couple of months God has been working on me and I feel a calling to help spread his message. It is hard to spark up a conversation with a total stranger; however, if I am able to hand them a Pocket Testament Gospel of John book of scripture, I think this will serve as a conversation starter. Thank you for your sponsorship help, and I hope to be in a position to sponsor others pretty soon. 
 I work as an assistant with teen ministry and the women's ministry at my church and I'm going to share the Gospel of John with them and other teens and women that I come in contact with. 
 I am a volunteer Marriage and Family Biblical Counselor. I specialize in helping Women and Children of abuse and divorce. I work at a church, but am not church sponsored. I pay for everything myself or through donations. God has given me a heart for our hurting children and showing how God can lift their load. 
 We have many Chinese Students from the University who are attending our church. One even tithed in Chinese currency lately! I plan to share the Chinese versions of the Gospels of John with them to share with their unsaved friends. 
 I love to share God's word with ordinary people all around me! I give these Gospels of John to my piano students, who don't know Jesus, and to others I come in contact with. I recently shared the gospel of John with a non Christian who was 98 years old. She died 5 days later. Maybe she believed before she died. I will know one day when I see Jesus face to face. Praise God for his work in our cities! 
 I would like to give these Gospels of John out to anyone I run into who I strike up a conversation with or I feel needs the Gospel of John at the time. 
 Thank you for your support. Over the years since I began with the League I have distributed over 600 Pocket Testaments. Just tonight I shared my last 8 at a Bible study for others to pass out to others. I appreciate your encouragement. At 70, legally blind, disabled, there is little that I can do, but the Bible says I am to bring forth fruit in my old age so I do what I am able to do. I have found Pocket Testaments an excellent way to share the gospel. God bless you and all involved in this very important ministry. 
 I was incarcerated for some very serious charges. The entire time I was being booked in and during my bond hearing I kept praying to God to make all of this go away, but it didn't. After being moved to a more permanent location in jail, I was placed with a roommate who, with the help of the pocket testament Gospel of John, which was one of the only things I had to read, changed my life. I went to church when I was younger but honestly had never been or even thought of religion much until that moment. I realized that during my period without Jesus Christ I was still praying to God to keep everyone safe, for prosperity, for all sorts of things. And my prayers were always answered. The problem was I was not holding up my end of the bargain. After my prayers had been answered I'd chalk it all up to chance and turn my back to God once again. I never want that to happen again. I firmly believe that what happened to me was an act of God to save my spiritual life. The severity of the charges, my random roommate, the pocket testament Gospel of John, and another book taught me to just trust in the Lord and to try and be a better person. Before the incident I looked like a good person, but it was all a facade. I was the epitome of all of the seven deadly sins. I had everything I could ask for but I wasn't happy. Times are still hard because everything is still happening, but now I feel I am on my way to a more joyous life with Jesus Christ. I didn't mean to write so much, and it might sound a little jumbled but I just wanted you to know how much the pocket testament Gospel of John spoke to me and how I am honestly going to live like the Lord wants me to live. Pray for me, not for my situation but so that I do not wander off the path this time. I don't ever want to be without God again. 
 I like to preach the Gospel in public to crowds outdoors and even preach one-on-one with individuals. I like to leave a Gospel booklet, Bible, New Testament, or Gospel of John with those whom I share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with if they will accept it. 
 I am turning 86 years old soon and I would like to give some of these Gospels of John pocket testaments out at my birthday party! I also have some people in my neighborhood who need to read the Book of John. Thanks so much for your support! 
 I am the pastor of a church in downstate Illinois. These Gospels of John have proven to be wonderful gifts for first time visitors at our church. I want to thank whoever sponsors this order. Without you, a lot of this could not be done.
Thanks. 
 It was the last door of about 15 doors that we knocked on. A young mother opened the door. We introduced ourselves, telling her who we were, and where our church was located. Then, I asked her, "Has anyone ever told you that Jesus really loves you?" After asking that question, it was like the walls came down, and she was ready to lay her burdens down. She responded with a nod. Then, I asked her, "Before we go, we would like to pray for you. Is there anything that we could pray for you about?" She started crying. "Madam, is everything okay in your life?" She begin telling us how the State was about to take her son away. Soon, my partner and I found ourselves sharing the gospel with this broken mother. To keep it short, she received Jesus Christ as her personal Lord and Savior! Yet, the most interesting thing happened during our presentation of the gospel. She kept shaking her head. I asked her, "Madam, you keep shaking your head as though you are surprised by something." She told us that we were God-sent, because before we knocked on her door, she was about to pump her body with drugs. Yet, your knock stopped me. Amen! 
 We are building a Faith Based Community within our work group, for the Lord is fueling me to create a study group for after work, to rid ourselves of our everyday problems, the fear of depression and more importantly the stress in life itself. I do greatly apologize I do not have the funds to sponsor as of current but I assure you when the Lord makes it possible I will, rest assured, make a ten fold donation. These Gospels of John will not only be used but given to those in serious need. Thank you and more importantly God Bless. 
 After giving my life to our Lord Jesus Christ last year, I have had the best time in my entire 52 years. I lost everything of what matters to the world, yet won everything of what really matters. I am fully blessed and want to share my story! 
 I live in an area where there are many people in sinful lifestyles, drug addicts and alcoholics. I want to start giving the Gospels of John out in my neighborhood. But recently, a friend of mine and I from church went into a nearby neighborhood and we only had 5 pocket testament books to give out. Out of the five people we talked to, when I asked if they had someone they wished me to pray for, 3 wanted prayer for themselves and 2 for someone else. Please pray for 3 women and one man from Richmond, VA. God knows who they are. Thanks for helping me pray for them and sponsoring my ministry. I don't have any money, but I have Jesus to share! 
 A few years ago while driving a truck, I picked up a couple of Gospels of John in a truck stop. I thought these pocket testaments would be excellent tools to help others come to know The Lord, and gave them personally to other drivers to help them grow. I prayed with each of them and trusted God to save them. 
 I work in an Oncology Clinic. I leave the Gospels of John in the exam rooms, waiting room and dressing rooms. When led by the spirit, I give the pocket testament gospels of John to patients or family members. I explain that it's a gift from me, not the hospital, as I have been warned by my boss that I can be disciplined for giving the pocket testaments out at work. 
 My half-brother is in jail and I would like to give him, and other inmates, a Gospel of John Pocket Testament. I don't have the money to sponsor on my own. I gave his son the one Pocket Testament I had and he was thrilled. He's 8 years old! My church has different outreach programs throughout the year and we struggle financially. I would love to contribute by supplying sponsored Pocket Testament Gospel of John Bibles! Thank you sponsors! 
 I plan to use the Gospel of John for helping me have a closer relationship with Christ. I am a new Christian and am absolutely excited about my journey. 
 I plan on reaching out to the youth in my community by sharing with them the Gospel of John and Jesus Christ. I have been working with youth and teaching them about God. We have yard sales, and fish fry events to raise money to take them to various outings they other wise would not be able to go to. Thank you and may God continue to bless you and the League ministry. 
 I'm a senior in high school and I would like to use the League gospels of John to reach out to my friends, and even some of the teens that I don't even know. As well as fighting to keep my salvation secure, I feel like it is also my duty to share the gift of Christ to all, so that all may feel His Love and Joy. 
 We're winning souls and the team has reached the Pocket Testament League Impact Awards bronze level now! We're rejoicing. Pray with us for more souls to be added to our fellowship as we obey to seek and save the lost. 
 I am a 53 year old, non-denominational, born again Christian of 23 years and I have struggled to get the Gospel to 33 families of my unsaved family in Louisiana, Texas, Missouri, and Michigan since August 1987 when I received forgiveness of my sins and invited Jesus Christ to come in my heart. I would normally sponsor any order I wish to receive, but I am trying this PocketPower for the first time while being 9 months unemployed. I want to give this PocketPower Pocket Testament Gospel of John to my unsaved mother on her 75th birthday in September 2010 and my unsaved relatives, including aunts, uncles and first cousins, at an annual Germanfest celebration in Louisiana around October 3rd this year. Thank you for your sponsorship. I appreciate it more than you know, to see my unsaved family knowing Jesus Christ as their personal Savior is an awesome experience like it was for me when I was 30 years old in August 1987. 
 I ordered 30 of these gospels of John last month, and need some more. I am going door to door in my town with a friend of mine along with these Gospels of John, a Bible and our testimony. We are hoping to help lead people to the Lord. I also leave one of these Pocket Testament Gospels of John on the table with the tip when we go out to eat! 
 The Gospels of John will be given to people we encounter as we travel about the country. Sometimes they are homeless, housekeepers, food servers or anyone else we may meet along the way. 
 I will offer the Gospels of John at my place of business at the counter. Many of the Spanish language pocket testaments will be handed out at a local jail ministry. 
 I attend a university in Glenside, PA. With my Christian Fellowship group we will be handing these gospels of John out to new Christians in hopes of supporting their faith. 
 My husband and I work with a coalition for Christian outreach on a campus of university. We would like to give the pocket testaments out to students around campus as an outreach, as well as to people who attend our fellowship meetings for the first time. 
 Our church helped man a booth at our local town fair. We gave away Gospels of John at the fair and along with them we shared Christ with a number of people. The total for the whole week (including when other churches manned the booth) was 39 salvations and at least 7 people were in church the following week who came from the fair. 
 Just the other day I spent some time with a person from the middle east who was homeless. I was able to share the gospel with him, leave him a gospel of John and provide a roof over his head until he went to work. I plan on continuing to use these gospels of John to make Christ love known! 
 Thank you for the League help. I am able to share the love of Christ through these Gospels of John. I carry them faithfully and share whenever the Lord leads. Thanks again. 
 I am a part of a Christian motorcycle association and come across many hurting people and have had the opportunity to reach many of these people at their lowest points in their lives. They do not know what direction to take anymore, and the Gospel of John has been a great influence to my life since I was given one at one point and want to be able to do the same for others and help to plant that seed that they so need and pray that it will grow. 
 I substitute teach at all the K-12 schools in my county. This brings me into close contact with many teens and young people, all of whom I offer the story of salvation to and also copies of the Gospel of John pocket testament. 
 God gives me many opportunities to hand out gospels of John as I go through my day. I pray the Lord will use me to share the good news. Thank you for helping to make this possible. 
 I participate in inner city evangelism in low income housing areas and I left my gospel of John booklet on a table at our event. I had the "B free" and "The Chosen Girls" booklet that I was handing out. I took a break to help someone, so I placed a whole stack of pocket testament booklets on a table, probably 10-15. As I was returning I noticed a small boy trying to reach them and did and started handing the Gospels of John out to the other kids and adults. I didn't intend on the pocket testaments being given out that way, but I couldn't and wouldn't stop him. I just prayed that those Gospel of John booklets were given out and read by those who needed them. 
 I have a friend who has been searching for a religion for herself. I know I want to use one of these Gospels of John to give her because she is interested in reading the Bible and also understanding the basics of Christianity. I am also involved with Campus Crusades on campus and I thought that we could use some of these pocket testaments, as well. I am excited to see what God will do through me and my friends. 
 I don't know yet, but I just want to use the Gospels of John. Please pray for me that I will have the "where with all" and spiritual sensitivity to do so! And, to come back for more Gospels of John! 
 I am a single mother who lives in an urban city. I was saved from living on the streets, doing drugs, and acting in violent tendencies. Now thanks to Jesus, I take care of my grandmother, go to school and spend my Saturdays reaching out to this city. I pray for it always as does my church. Thank you for helping with the pocket testament gospels of John. My ministry is just starting but thanks to people like you, we're blessed. 
 I did not get any Gospel of John booklets yet, but I will hand the pocket testaments out in grocery stores and in my local jail, where I go every Sunday to visit.
