As August draws to an end, we're seeing the largest volume of shipments coming back to our collection centers ever! We expected that since the 100 days goal is here. We would like to emphasize that there is no deadline for returning the Bibles. We encourage everyone to get them back as soon as possible, however we will continue to support the project until each Bible comes back. Keep up the good work!
Last week the Operation Worship Bible campaign was included in the "Family News In Focus" broadcast on the Focus On The Family Radio Program. To hear the online segment click

We've been contacted by a number of people who have asked if they can hand deliver or send their Operation Worship Bible to a specific service member. Please do! You can send it yourself directly to them. If you do, or if you have, please use our comment section and let us know about it. We love to hear the stories about God at work in people's lives. Just use the comment link below this post. Thank you for sharing!
Also, active duty military can log into our 'military log-in' area and tell their story on receiving a Operation Worship Bible. It can be found on our home page at www.operationworship.com or by clicking here
Current requests from military Chaplains have exceeded 105,000 Bibles. This is amazing since the information on how to request Bibles is still being spread through out the military chaplaincy. We are still anticipating a steady flood of additional requests, and also more large mass deployment requests in the coming weeks.
Please continue to sign and send your Bibles in. We're looking forward to getting each and every one of them to those who want one.
Bible Shipments to our service members are going out on a daily basis, averaging over 1,000 Bibles per day! One shipment of 10,240 Bibles left Tyndale House Publishers in a mass deployment recently. Case after case are being shipped from the requests taken from Chaplains who are currently "down-range". Thank you to all of the wonderful volunteers who are working to make sure the Bibles reach the soldier's hands in a timely manner. Please continue to send us your signed Bibles, the demand continues to climb!
