July 30th 2023 - An Update
"God is on the move!" God allowed Disciple Learner Resources to receive a large donation for their ministry. They had been praying for God to move in their community and for Him to give them enough to buy bibles for the upcoming back-to-school event. Jesse and Samantha were so encouraged by the large gift and they went to work buying bibles, tracts, study materials and preparing for the event. They had a wonderful ladies group volunteer to help fill and pray over the 700 bags and bibles to be given out.
After they bought a lot for their event, Samantha remembered her heavy heart for a community where Jesse's grandmother lives. She Lives in Crystal City by Laprior. It's a very small border town where people are poor. She wanted to help a ministry in that town that feeds the poor. She knew God had blessed them with a large donation so she called and spoke with the head of the food pantry. She asked the lady if they needed any resources and the lady thought she meant food. Samantha told her she wanted to know if they needed "bibles." The lady paused, in disbelief, and said they had been praying that very morning for someone to give them bibles! Wow!
The other churches, in the community, do not have enough money for bibles and they have only their bible phone apps to read from. Samantha could not believe God's timing was so exact that they prayed that morning and God had her call on the same day. This lady could also not believe her ears and actually needed a modest amount of bibles as compared to what DLR gives out for most events. She says there are many churches and ministries that still do not have a single bible or even one to share. Samantha immediately got a box ready and shipped it off to the ministry. Samantha will send more materials to follow and DLR wants to give them bible study materials as well. It is the goal to hand out free bibles and bible study materials to all communities that are in need of God's word. Jesus said, "Go and make disciples of all nations."
DLR was able to send 2,500 Gospel of Johns and many Children's Bibles to Crystal City, TX after talking to the local Crystal City food pantry that needed it.
A side story about God's work: Samantha gave me a task to find some tracts for handing out. She told me about a web site but I accidentally went to the wrong site and ordered 600 tracts. The tracts were nice when they arrived but this wrong website was not working well and I could not pay for them...so I called the ministry. They told me they have had a lot of trouble with their site and have been losing orders and money. I told them Samantha actually creates really nice websites for a living. I told them they might want to call her and they did.
Samantha has been working on their new website and has found that they were being overcharged for a non working site and it was so disorganized. She feels badly for this ministry and they are so glad they found her because she is honest and sincerely wants to help others. They will have a wonderful site up soon and this is all God's work because they had been needing a better site and God led me to the wrong website so Samntha could help this ministry get back on track. God is clearly on the Move! Check out their new website at www.GospelTractSociety.org
Thank you, Lord. We greatly appreciate all who pray for and support the ministry of DLR.
