Bibles to AFRICA!
WEO has teamed up with "Bearing Precious Seed" a Bible printing ministry of First Baptist Church in Milford, OH to distribute Bibles to West Africa.
​
The Story Behind the Bibles...
In October 2022, WEO visited the BPS Print Facility in Milford, Ohio to get a tour and discuss the possibility of getting Bibles to distribute to AFRICA.
​
To our surprise, Al Braley (Production Director) offered to send 30,000 pieces of scripture (New Testaments, John and Romans booklets, and whole Bibles)!!! Needless to say, we were absolutely speechless.
​
As time went on the 30,000 Bibles grew to over 110,000 pieces of scripture with country flags printed on the covers and some Bibles printed in French.
​
In April 2023, the Bibles were loaded into a 20 foot shipping container and sent off to Freetown, Sierra Leone where they will be offloaded and stored initially in a warehouse, and eventually distributed to the countries of Sierra Leone, Liberia, Ghana, Guinea, Nigeria and Ivory Coast.
​
We praise the good Lord and the generous and hard working folks at BPS for such a HUGE blessing. Thank you BPS for helping bring the gospel to Africa!

Stay with us for updates on the delivery and distribution of the Bibles!!!
