Thank you to everyone who helped support the Used Book Depository and get the Word out to the world. Over the past few weekends we collected over 450 bibles/books and $9,865 to help ship them around the world. If you would like to continue supporting UBD or find out more ways to help please contact Deborah.
Have you ever stopped to think about the countless thousands of Christians worldwide who have no access to Bibles or Christian books? Small villages in developing countries have teachers and pastors with no teaching aids or resource materials. The Used Book Depository at MCC is working hard to share the abundance of Bibles and Christian materials with others throughout the world.
We collect used Bibles, hymnals, Christian periodicals and reference materials; we repair damaged books, and send them overseas. This brings the light of Christ to many who otherwise would continue to live in darkness. We need you! Volunteer times are flexible. This is a great individual or Small Group activity. No special skills are needed. If you feel called to "share the Word with the world," please contact Polly Sedziol at 922-0138
