“I will delight in Your statutes; I will not forget Your word.” (Psalm 119:16, HCSB)

Hi, this is Eleanor Witcher of IMB’s prayer office, praying for electronic distribution of Scripture.

In a small village, some visiting believers gave three young Amharan men SD memory cards for their cell phones. They had seen the “JESUS” film and were told that they could watch it on their phones now. In addition, they could read and listen to extensive biblical teaching. They wanted cards for their friends, so the believers told them just to send the content to their friends via Bluetooth. The believers said that these three could be responsible for getting the content to lots of people in their town, and the young men agreed. The SD memory cards contain the “Creation to Christ” story, chronological Bible stories, the “JESUS” film and the “Magdalena” film, the audio New Testament, the entire Bible written in Amharic, discipleship Bible stories, and 150 songs that are Scripture based and are in the Orthodox style. 

A friend in a rural area of Ethiopia asked some visiting believers for solar-powered audio players for two Orthodox priests who do not live near each other. These priests teach in their homes, while also serving in the Orthodox Church. Two of the audio players were provided for the priests to use with their people. The audio players contain similar content to the SD memory cards. These audio players are easy to use for those who are not technologically savvy. 

It used to be difficult for Saudi Arabs to access the Bible. Now there are online versions and mobile apps that they can download easily. 

* Please pray that millions of Saudis will desire the Word and that the Holy Spirit will give them understanding and quicken their hearts toward Him as they read. 

* Intercede for these Ethiopian priests that they will consistently listen to and share what they are hearing on the solar-powered audio players with their congregations.

* Pray that the three young Amharan men will listen to the SD memory card content, come to a true faith in Jesus, and share it with many.
