UnitedStatesBibleSociety: Newsletter
August 1, 2014 

Welcome to the Monthly Newsletter of the United States Bible Society. Our goal is to keep you informed on our Community and Ministry. Below is a word of encouragement, a thanksgiving, a look back, a look forward, our financial statement, and what we need to meet the vision the Lord has placed on our Hearts. Please enjoy and Pray over this Months Newsletter.

You Con-du-it !
Allowing the Lord to Work through Our Lives.
              

Last Month I shared about our prayer group taught by my good Friend Garfield who is from Jamaica and a powerful man of Prayer. As we prayed for our Ministry and our challenges he told me with his heavy Jamaican accent "Don't worry about anything Mr. Burnette, You Con-du-it through the Lord Jesus-Christ." When he said those words my mind's eye thought of how Jesus-Christ works through us and how we are  a "conduit" to the power and person of Christ-Jesus. How He can do all things and in turn how we can do all things. The key is to simply be obedient to His Plan, His Will, and yield to His direction. The Lord's ways are not always our ways but the Lord has given us His Spirit and His Word to be this "conduit" or vehicle that our Lord uses to accomplish His purpose for our lives. How about you? Are you facing challenges in your life? Let us be reminded that our Lord knows what we are facing. If we are saved we are a conduit and Philippians 4:13: "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me." are more than just words on a page of the Bible but rather a statement of faith working in and through our lives. Let us focus on the Lord, get plugged into Jesus, worry about nothing, pray about everything, as we are a "conduit" to the Holy Spirit working in and through us. 

Thank You
Your Labor is not in Vain. 
    
"Thank You," to all those who are apart of this work as we had a record number of Web Hits with 1,063,927 for July. We also had another good report of Souls Saved, Bibles Distributed, Devotions Emailed, Bibles Downloaded, Audio Bibles Accessed, and Online Bibles Accessed. Thanks again, for everyone who Prayed, Supplied Funds, Made Visits, Answered Emails, Placed Phone Calls, Provided Bibles, Delivered Bibles, and Shared the Gospel. Your labor is not in vain as I receive mail every day of souls being saved and lives being changed. Let us be encouraged to press to the mark of continuing in the Lord, to do His Will, and His Work in these last days.
Looking Back
A Record Month:  
In July we reached more than we ever have for a month receiving over 1 million web hits coupled with the contacts we make through e-Devotions, Church Services, and email correspondence made our Ministry connecting 2 million times in 120 countries. Praise the Lord. I never thought the Lord would use us in such a large way but we realize that it is Jesus-Christ working as we make ourselves available. We started www.FreeBibles.us.com last month also which is a domain that we owned and is an extension of what we do at www.bibles4free.com , www.mybible.us.com , and www.globalbiblesocieties.com .  I am excited about what the Lord is doing and again thank you for your prayers and gifts.

Looking Forward
Our Next Step: 
     
Bibles.us.com will be our new online store as we will attempt to sell Bibles with the goal of providing more Bibles to ship to our friends where no Church Partner is currently able to reach. We will continue to fix up our Ministry Office with some new paint and flooring with the goal of hosting more Bible Studies for our Local community with a special thanks to www.christianinc.org for the funds to complete this project. We are continuing to work on the Life Application notes that I send in our daily devotion to our commentary section of our Online Bible. This will make each Chapter of our Online Bible a devotion in itself with a Chapter of Scripture, Matthew Henry Commentary on the Chapter, and now my Life Application Notes all on the same page.  We are working out the bugs in our Phone Gospel Message that works with the Tracts we had printed. This allows the caller to hear the Gospel Message and Order a Free Bible from our toll free phone number that is on the tract. We are continuing in the change of our focus from automating our Bible Request Search and Placement with a focus on individual ministry and prayer for each who contact us.   If the Lord lays this on your heart you can give and we will apply the gifts to this specific need.
Our Finances
 Ministry Finance Report  

 
Words cannot express our appreciation for all who give to the United States Bible Society. Funds given are only a small portion that is invested as thousand of Church Partners provide Bibles daily at their cost. As with any Ministry we have costs to provide our services. I too contribute to this Ministry and receive no personal support for our work. We have grown to the point where we need the Lord to Burden Churches and others to give to meet our financial needs. Thank you for your gifts.
