Dear Friend in Christ,
Greetings in Jesus Lovely name. I pray that this letter meet you doing well in
Christ. Please do not be upset that I?m writing you. I felt I needed to ask for
help from other brethren in Christ when in need.
I am a 62 years old Brother married with wife and three grand children. Our only
son Demi died in a motor accident 4 years ago and we now have to take care of
two of the children when their mother remarried. I was a clerk for many years
before I loosed my job. Now I have no job and about to take to farming. I gave
my life to Christ in 1990. I visited an office in Aba town in 1989. In the
office there was this nice looking book it was a New Testament bible left on one
of the tables. I took the bible without the consent of the owner I stole it.
When I gave my life to Christ He forgive me of all sins including stealing this
little bible. The miracle was that I kept it for some time and latter started
reading it just as reading a novel. But after some time the Lord arrested my
heart through that little book and I gave my life to Him. All the while God has
given me the grace to serve Him without going back. Me and my wife Edugie are
members of a small growing church with about 15 family shepherds by a young
devoted man of God. The name of our church is Anchor of Life Fellowship.
I am writing this letter because we have a need. We need your help for four
bibles. The ones we had before are New Testament bibles now turn and we are
unable to read them due to reading difficulty having to read small letters. It
is my request and appeal that you help me and my wife for two Bibles king James
or new international versions. We need giant Print types due to reading
difficulty. May God bless you as you help us. Also pray about me and my wife
that God would show you how deep we need the bibles. I have not met you face to
face but I know that God have allowed me to know you through this means and we
need no other help but bibles. Also please send two giant print bibles for
Sisters Amariu and Kiamati who are aged widows in our church but do not have
bibles. In all I ask for four giant print bibles. I urge you to please send the
bibles in airmail insured postage in order that they reach us safely. Insured
airmail I was told is the safest means to receive things in our post office. Our
postal address is Nosakgare Edionyere. 67 Izekor Street, Benin City, Edo State,
Nigeria. Please note that we need only English bibles. King James Version is the
type we use mostly in our church during fellowship but we are not deprived from
other versions like New International Version and Living Bible. When you write
and I do not reply it is because I do not check my email often. But when you
send the bibles I will by God's grace receive them.
For I know the thought that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of
peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. Jeremiah 29:11. May the
Lord give you peace and grace to follow him till the end.
I shall be very grateful if this request in granted.
Yours in Christ,
Nosakgare Edionyere.
67 Izekor Street, Benin City, Edo State, Nigeria.
