Dutton's- God's Heart

Terina Dutton

‎"When we say we have a heart for the USA we are admitting that we have a meager 5% of Gods heart & we are proud of it. When we say we have a heart for the city we live in, we confess that we have less than 1 % of Gods heart. Certainly there are great needs here. But must we insist on dividing the Great Commission into an either or proposition? Who told us we had to have a heart for the USA OR the world?"..David Platt

 Terina Dutton cont..."based on the purposes of God we've seen in Scripture, shouldn't EVERY CHRISTIANs heart be ultimately consumed with how we can make Gods glory know in all the world..." from the book "Radical" by David Platt

The Gideons- July Update

Gideon Scriptures Touch Lives Throughout The World In 2010-2011
We give all glory to God for every Scripture that is distributed and for every soul that comes to receive Christ as Lord and Savior as a direct result of these distributions.

We also recognize the importance of the support of our members and donors. Their faithful serving and giving help touch lives for Christ in ways that we’ll never fully realize until we get to Heaven.

With more than 158,000 Gideons and Auxiliary outside of the U.S., and nearly 129,000 more members in the U.S., Gideon Scriptures are being placed by our members at the rate of more than 2 per second, for as little as $1.24 a copy.

To date, we’ve distributed over 1.7 billion Scriptures in the world since our first placement in 1908 at the Superior Hotel in Superior, Montana.

Today, there are an estimated 4 billion unsaved people in the world. That means there is still much more work for The Gideons International to do in our role along with other ministries in carrying out Christ’s command to “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations.” (Matthew 28:19, NKJV)

Please pray that 2011-2012 will be a year in which more Scriptures can be placed through The Gideons International to help win more men, women, boys and girls to the Lord, Jesus Christ.

The Gideons- College Campus Bibles

Taking God’s Word to college campuses
By getting God’s Word into the hands of a graduate, The Gideons hope that Christ becomes a person’s foundation, resulting in a life filled with God’s blessings, and an eternity spent in heaven.

Gideon College Testament distribution locations include 2-year and 4-year colleges and institutions, as well as all other post-secondary educational institutions such as trade schools, technical institutes and business schools. As with all Gideon distributions, college campus graduation distributions are made only after receiving approvals from officials.

For the 2010-2011 fiscal year to-date, The Gideons International has distributed over 2.3 million copies of God’s Word on college campuses worldwide, with more than 1.4 million of those being distributed on U.S. campuses. We praise God for the lives impacted as a result of this program, and for the Gideons and donors who made it possible.

Graduation signals a new beginning in life. As college graduates seek jobs and begin their careers, having God’s Word and putting their trust in Him will give them the strength and wisdom they need for the challenges that lie ahead.

We pray that as Gideons distribute God’s Word to this year’s graduating class, new graduates will discover that Christ is the only new beginning in life that can make a difference for eternity.

In March, 747,947 copies of copies of God’s Word were placed in the U.S. through The Gideons International. Praise God. Thank you members and donors.
