Thinking In Millions
Last year the Bible Society achieved new records in all parte of the world. In Africa: The campaign to circulate a million Gospel* has greatly exceeded its target. In Japan: Over a million Gotgels and other portions of cripture were sold by Bible Society colporteurs.
In Argentina: Total Scripture circulation exceeded one million copies for the first time.
In India: Total Scripture circulation exceeded two million copies foe the first time. In Brazil: Twenty million copies of Scripture have been circulated in twelve years. The total cost of Scripture translation, production and distribution incurred by the Bible Society exceeded £1.000,000.
The sale of Scriptures covered little more than half that cost. So vast an undertaking needs goodwill of millions of supporters.
