Our Cause

My story: Why am I doing this?

My idea is the more bibles I can donate to churches, the more families will receive the bibles. The more families who receive the bibles, the more families will learn the word of God, and more families will be saved.
So I have made it personal mission to donate bibles to churches who need them for distribution to those who cannot afford to buy bibles.
I have been donating bibles to churches for 10 years now. In my own little way, I donate 50, 100 or more bibles per church. Over the years I have donated several thousand bibles to churches in California, Las Vegas, Arizona, Tijuana Mexico, and in the Philippines: Cavite, Pampanga, Cebu, Aklan, Cagayan de Oro etc.
I work with Holy Spirit Divine Ministry of Pastor Merle Yaneza, Homeland, CA. She tells me which churches need bibles. I buy the bibles and ship them to the churches.

Now, I am focused on churches in the Philippines because there are tens of thousands of families in the Philippines who cannot afford to buy a bible. In October of 2019, I shipped 96 bibles to Jesus is Lord church of Pastor Bert Aquino in Mesa, Arizona; 194 bibles to Seek Jesus First Ministry church of Pastor Allen Mallari in Las Vegas, Nevada; and 560 bibles to Manila, for distribution to 8 churches at 70 bibles per church.I was given a list of 16 churches in the Philippines, and I was able to send only 560 bibles enough for only 8 churches at 70 bibles each.
So I still need to ship another 560 bibles. Previously, I bought bibles from a Philippine supplier at $3 per bible, minimum of 100 bibles per order. I found a US printer who can supply the bibles at a good price, provided I buy 560 bibles at a time. I ship to my office in Manila in Balikbayan Boxes, and they in turn repack and ship to each church. The cost is about $2 per bible.
Since I could only ship 560 bibles, and I need to ship 560 more, I came up with the idea of recruiting Bible Warriors to help raise the funds to be able to buy more bibles.
I ordered 600 bibles in January 2021: 200 to Gloria Papin and Ptr Rozelle Tong of Las Vegas, Nevada 200 to Ptr Merle Yaneza in Homeland, California 200 for shipment to Manila

Our mission:

Donate bibles to Pastors and churches in the Philippines.Tens of thousands of families in the Philippines cannot afford to buy a bible.We can change that, one bible per family at a time.
Join me as Bible Warrior so we can donate more bibles to more Filipino families.
