  âThere is nothing like seeing a person getting a Bible for the very first
     time.â â The Rev. Jim Lenderman, associate pastor in Tulsa, Okla.


Oklahoma church sends Bibles to Congo

   TULSA, Okla. (UMNS) â The word of God is reaching poor and illiterate people
   in the Democratic Republic of the Congo in several ways, thanks to the
   generosity of Asbury United Methodist Church in Tulsa. A pastor was inspired
   to launch the project after hearing about United Methodists in the central
   African country who had no Bibles.

Side by side with Haiti

   PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti (UMNS) â Two years after a 7.0 earthquake left 220,000

   Church of Haiti â continue to help in the island nationâs recovery. On the
   eve of the quakeâs anniversary, the United Methodist News Service has put
   together a slideshow featuring photos by Mike DuBose and the Rev. Chris
   Heckert, showing the quakeâs immediate aftermath and United Methodist
   recovery efforts. Individual copies are available for $10 on the Christian
   site EthicsDaily.com, which produced the documentary.
