December Touchpoint 2011

Letter from Executive Director, Jason Woolford

December is a month that many of us reflect on the past year and what has been achieved. At the beginning of 2011 I was reading through the Bible and there were two key verses that really ministered to me. The two verses really go hand in hand.

Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he. (KJV) Proverbs 29:18

And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. Habakkuk 2:2 (KJV)

This year CRI’s goal was to send and receive more Bibles and Christian teaching tools than ever in the history of the ministry. God has accomplished just that this year through your kindness, faithfulness and obedience to the Lord Jesus. We were able to send something more spiritually tangible than food or housing. We were able to send the living, breathing, life changing Word of God!

We continually praise the Lord for working so mightily throughout the year so that hundreds of thousands could be introduced to the grace, mercy and love of a powerful baby Jesus. As we celebrate His birth this month, we are so thankful for what He has provided thus far in 2011. In order for us to finish out this year debt free, and to ensure we are good stewards of God’s resources, $50,000 is needed to meet our annual budget. We trust God to provide and look forward to blessing many more pastors & reaching more lost souls in 2012. I thank you in advance for your prayers and financial support as well.

Just as Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, was the ULTIMATE gift, we pledge to continue to send HIS Word to those in need so they can received the gift of salvation! This past year we sent eleven sea containers filled with Bibles and Christian teaching tools to nine different countries. The Word of God is the best gift that we can give our brothers and sisters in Christ on the other side of the world.

Along with my wife Maria and my children we join you in taking a stand for Christ this Christmas. He is the reason we celebrate this day in our great nation, the United States of America. We pray that you have a joyous holiday season and you take time to remember the Ultimate gift: God’s son, Jesus.

To God be the Glory,

Jason Woolford and family
