And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bring forth a Son, and shall call His

name JESUS.
He will be great, . . . and the Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David.
And . . . of His kingdom there will be no end. Luke 1:31-33

N JESUS CHRIST, God came to us as one of us. The Incarnation displays both the height of Gods creation
human beings made in His likenessand the stunning love of the Word, who came in the likeness of men,
humbling Himself to share in the common human experience. Through His perfectly obedient life, death,
and resurrection, He won for us the right to become sons and daughters of God. Even nowbefore He
comes again in glory, when every eye shall see Him and every knee shall bow before HimHis kingdom is
growing in the hearts of believers around the world.
Earthly kingdoms rise and fall and are replaced by new ones just as temporal, but of the increase of His
government and peace there will be no end (Isaiah 9:7a). Jesus told Pilate, You say rightly that I am a king.
For this cause I was born, and for this cause I have come into the world, that I should bear witness to the
truth (John 18:37b). As we celebrate the birth of our Savior this Christmas season, let us contemplate that
God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, . . . and has committed to us the word of reconciliation (2 Corinthians 5:19). What an amazing privilege it is to participate with the King of kings in this worldwide ministry of reconciliation!

pact lives as they are distributed in various parts of the world. When a young mother in
Burkina Faso gave her heart to Jesus, a Christian worker shared with her the booklet about
Jesus being King. She went right home and shared the gospel with others. From Ethiopia came this testimony, From the beginning I was not with Jesus, but one day I saw your booklet, The Amazing Life of Jesus
Christ, and read it. My heart was broken to take Jesus as my personal Savior. Now I understand the truth
that because of my sin, God sent His only Son to save me. Also I believe that Jesus died on the cross for my
sin. Your booklet can change me. God has promised that His Word will accomplish His purpose.
[A gift of $25 will cover the cost of producing 500 topical Scripture booklets in various languages, while an investment of $1,000 will touch 20,000 people with the life-giving Word of God.]

Idea #2A Roll of Paper

What good is a high-speed web press without
paper? Each 35-inch wide, 1,500-lb. roll is twelve
miles of printable potential. Thats enough paper
for the inside pages of 85,000 48-page Scripture
booklets. One roll costs $1,073. Or help fund a
half roll for $536.50providing the inside pages
for 42,500 Scripture booklets, each containing
hundreds of powerful Scripture verses.
The Man Roland press uses yellow, red, blue, and
black inks to produce our full-color covers.

WMP is increasing its use of red, yellow, and blue

ink for 4-color covers. A 5-lb. can of color ink
costs $23.76; a gift of $1 provides color for 6,100
4-color covers!

Idea #4Powerful Ink on Paper

Ten pounds of black ink for our web press
costs $16.84 and will make the pages of about
51,500 Scripture booklets come alive with
precious gospel truth. A 450-lb. drum of black ink
costs $758 and prints the inside pages of approximately 2,320,000 48-page Scripture booklets.

Across great parts of northern Africa, Islam prevails, yet the Word of God is going into these areas
through the vision and diligence of believers
who know rsthand the power of Gods
Word. Many Muslims have an interest in
the New Testament and in the person of
Jesus. In Niger, Mali, and Guinea (4% or
less Christian), Arabic New Testaments
from WMP are used to introduce Jesus
as the Son of God and to present His
love and sacrice for all people.
In Chad, Senegal, Sierra Leone, Burkina-Faso, and
Cte Ivoire (5-39% Christian) Arabic New Testaments are shared with police, military personnel,
school children, and merchants. After discussing
with an overseas national the best tool to reach
Arab people for Christ, a WMP ministry partner reported, Printed matter, the Word of God, is the best
way to learn about Christianity. In his country 99% of
the people have never had a Bible, New Testament,
or any other Christian material. They know nothing
about Christ. There are millions of people in this situation. The government in his country is not afraid of
tanks, planes, or pilots, but is afraid of the black-andwhite printed Word of God.
An Arabic New Testament costs WMP about 89
cents to produce. Think of the entire New Testament with the story of Jesus, His teachings, the
writings of the apostles, and the promise of eternal peace with the end of sin and deathall for
89 cents! Will you provide such a gift to a seeking
soul? Or sponsor a box of 26 for a gift of $23.14.

Idea #6Salvation Coloring Books

Idea #8Regular Prayer Support

Jesus was moved with indignation when His disciples rebuked those who brought
young children to Him. Explaining that all must come to Him
as a little child, He took
them up in His arms
and blessed them (Mark
10: 14-16). With Scripture
verses, text, and pages to
color, WMPs salvation coloring books, He Is Risen! and
God Loves You, bring children to the Savior. In many
cultures they are shared with parents who hear
of Jesus love for the rst time.
In a service in Zambia where He Is Risen! coloring books were distributed, a witchdoctor was
converted. Later he burned his tools of the
trademagic charms, a demon stick, and other
items. A ministry reaching Chinatown in Toronto,
Canada, considers He is Risen! a powerful Godgiven tool. Will you help share the story of Jesus
with children in fourteen languages, including
(soon) Haitian Kreyol?
[Investing $10 for 54 salvation coloring books
or $100 for 546will touch whole families.]

As a ministry founded and dependent on

prayer, World Missionary Press craves your intercession! Every petition on our behalf is greatly appreciated, and God has been faithful to honor such
oerings with blessings year after year. If you
would like to be a part of Gods providence for
WMP, please consider signing up to receive our
monthly prayer letter, which features a prayer request or praise report and related Scripture for
each day of the month. It will be mailed along with
the newsletter, or e-mailed if requested.

Idea #7Minister to Those in Prison

WMP produces Scripture-text Datebooks especially designed for inmates in the U.S. To meet the
growing demand for these treasured booklets,
WMP will supply 845,000 copies of the 2016 edition
to chaplains, inmates, and prison ministries. Many inmates write to tell of the impact of the daily Scripture verses on their lives. In Michigan, an inmate
who had initially rejected it as religious propaganda, was given a copy by a cell mate. Not wanting to be seen as rejecting a kindness, I put on a
show of reading it. I eventually used it to write down
daily plans and deeds. I then started reading the
daily Scriptures, and His light opened my eyes. My
heart felt a great burden lifted as I opened it to
His righteousness. I cannot do this time or my life
alone. I need Him to stay with me and support
me with His love and forgiveness.
[You can shine a light in the darkness by supplying 87 inmates with a Scripture-text Datebook for a gift of $10 or minister to 877
inmates year-round by investing $100.]

Idea #9Time as a Volunteer

The generosity of volunteers is the bread
and butter of WMPs production. Hundreds come
monthly to ll, weigh, and strap boxes on the
binderies; stu envelopes for mailings; or ll
small orders. Without volunteers giving their
time and energy, production could not continue
or increase. Groups of 3-8 people can be scheduled to work for 2-3 hours per month (almost
any time of day). Groups of 9-12 people can keep
two binderies running! In addition to weekdays
and evenings, groups can also volunteer on Saturday mornings and afternoons.
Openings on the fth week of any particular
month, when no regular group is scheduled, also
need to be lled, and anyone living close enough
to our facility can be put on a call-if-needed list.
If you or your group lives farther away, consider
coming to stay for several days. Ask about arranging special overnight events like a missions
marathon or midnight madness (late shift) for
youth groups.
Contact our Volunteer Coordinator at (574)
831-2111 (ext. 215) or volunteer@wmpress.org.

Idea #10Shipping Gods Word to the World

Shipment
Status Report
Shipped

The opportunity to send quantities of Scripture booklets

in 40-foot and 20-foot containers to countries around the
world has greatly increased the accessibility of WMP literature.
It also saves millions of dollars in postage, allowing the production and shipping of more Scripture booklets, Bible study
books, coloring books, and New Testaments. The cost savings
to ship just one ten-pound box$1.00 a box instead of $25.00 a
boxprovides for 480 more 48-page booklets.
Shipping costs vary from country to country. In the coming
months we will be shipping a 40-foot container to India for
about $2,602. We are also planning a 40-foot container for
land-locked Central African Republic, to be shipped at a cost of
$14,182. Will you help us ship boxes of Gods powerful Word to
India at 62 cents a box rather than $30 a box? Can you help
send boxes of Scriptures to Central African Republic for $3.36 a
box rather than $36 a box?
