We just added two NEW languages: DARI and PASHTO for Afghanistan and surrounding areas. We also have Farsi, Urdu, Arabic - combined with English verses.
Dari and Pashto!
All languages are listed alphabetically - not by country.
Perfect for Easter outreach to children: neighbors, refugee/immigrant children, children in hospital. Add a pack of crayons and maybe a cookie or candy. The girl to the right - in Cambodia - received The Good News in February 2024 (Language: Khmer).
Ask at the local Nursing/Care Home if you can hand out booklets to the residents. You may be pleasantly surprised. Print out the Large size CBs in the languages you need. Add a pack of crayons. Many elderly enjoy coloring (memories from their childhood), and they get to read about Jesus.
One young woman said that she downloaded CBs from the website, then printed out enough for her ESL class, so that each student would have a book in their own language combined with English. Together, a page at a time, her class would read the book in English and discuss it; then each person read each passage in their own language. A wonderful idea! The dual-language books were designed for this very purpose!"
The children usually start coloring immediately, and then read the books later (if they can read). Adults usually read the book first. Then some of them will color in the pictures. Who doesn't like coloring?
Right: This mother in a hospital in Kenya reads the book while her daughter sleeps.
THE GOOD NEWS COLORING BOOK:
Is NOT the whole New Testament with complete information about salvation, sanctification, sin, etc.
BUT IT IS:
• an introduction to Jesus Christ, the Savior of the world. The GNCB lets the Scriptures tell His story. The focus is Jesus.
• A seed scattered far and wide. The GNCB has been sent to 53 countries in 130 languages in the past 25 years.
• Sometimes it is the means for the harvest. Some adults and children have responded immediately to the gospel as presented in the GNCB.
• Affordable. Free to download. Inexpensive to print.
• Available in many languages. In some remote areas with minor languages, this little booklet may be the only Christian material people ever see.
