"The Bible Box is a good tool for teaching the Word of God especially to the children. Our church is using it for the children Sunday School and even the adults sometimes watch it. We saw how they listened carefully. The Bible Box has a good message when it comes to salvation and love of God for all human races. The kids are enjoying it while they listen from the story illustrated by pictures. All these things can greatly help and improve the learning ability of the children. So we are so grateful that we have (been) given this privilege to teach this Bible Box in our church." Mergin, Christian Light Foundation, Quezon City

COLLEGE STUDENTS go International
Students from The University of Colorado, Boulder, each summer participate in a global Messengers missions program sponsored by the First Presbyterian Church. Ten of the nineteen students hand delivered Bible Boxes for special training and VBS. The CU students received a real blessing and were encouraged by this tool that could be used for any language, any age group and at all levels of Biblical knowledge.
"Yes we definitely used The Bible Box in INDIA at the Asha House Orphanage and went through the major themes of the Bible with 31 Sunday School kids. The Christian leaders who speak Hindi translated for us and will be able to use it for more in depth education. Future teams will be able to use it at this orphanage so thank you so much for letting us deliver it. It was so great." Rachael
"My favorite account of using The Bible Box was teaching a preschool in Kibera, the slums of Nairobi. These kids receive very little love and attention and no one plays with them. Sarah, on our team gave the teacher The Bible Box and she was so happy and her eyes were so big that we brought such a gift. The teacher said it is hard to illustrate what God did for us, but these figures will greatly help teach about Jesus. We also used the boxes many times in Kijabe and other parts of Nairobi, KENYA. Bwana Asafiwe (Praise be to God)!!!!" Stephen
"The children in AFRICA enjoyed playing with the figures and the teacher was grateful to receive such a gift for her school. I am confident that the Bible Boxes we left in AFRICA will be used in many ways to glorify His kingdom. God Bless you in this ministry." Lee
"We gave one Bible Box to a daycare center and two to Christian elementary schools in HONDURAS and they were well received. Our situation was different as we had very little time to visit. One school located outside the Nueva Suyapa city dump was run by the local missionaries. We have faith that God will use these as instruments to teach the Bible stories as the missionaries seem really interested and God is working through them under these difficult conditions."
