Bible Society Sends Scripture to Typhoon Victims

Christian Today reports that Bible Society is trying to reach destitute typhoon victims in the Philippines with 50,000 booklets and 50,000 copies of the Bible. The Society has already sent 5,000 booklets for aid agenciesto distribute, hoping to replace some of the Bibles lost in the storms. The group had already begun a campaign to distribute one million Bibles before the two typhoons hit earlier this month. "In all, 3.1 million people have been affected by this disaster. Bibles have been washed away from homes and many churches left underwater," said Nora Lucero, General Secretary of the Philippines Bible Society. "Now more than ever people need God's Wordto give them hope and sustain them in the coming months."
