The following funding opportunities meet our most urgent project needs, including several translation projects underway.
Dozens of overseas pastors and teachers write to us requesting OBR Teaching Materials every week. You can help provide these much needed resources through the...
Letter Distribution Project
Each week we receive dozens of letters from all over the world. These letters are from servants of God who desperately need Bible study and teaching materials but face a tremendous challenge:
Either such materials are not available in their country, or the person writing cannot afford them.
Most of those writing LMW are from undeveloped or developing nations. However, there are also those in the US who may be incarcerated or are otherwise unable to purchase Bible study and teaching resources.
We, in fact, receive dozens of letters from prisons all over the US—from chaplains and prisoners—requesting OBR materials for use in their prison ministries. As financial gifts are received from God's people who feel led to give, we fulfill as many of these requests as possible; requests from all over the world.
For $33 you can place one volume of Outline Bible Resource materials in places such as Zambia, Ghana, Sri Lanka or a US prison. Click here.
Joe Aigbe of Padora, Italy received free OBR books paid for by gifts given to the Letter Distribution Project. He writes:
"The gift you sent me in reply to my letter...makes a new beginning in my life!"
As a result of your prayers and financial support, thousands of books have been distributed at no cost to people both in the United States and abroad.
One such person was Peter Abassah from Accra, Ghana. Upon receiving the books sent him, he took pictures and wrote us saying...
"I am grateful for the TOSB (Teacher's Outline & Study Bible) gift on the epistle of James… I am 'hooked on' the gospel but we lack the resources to teach with clarity. The book is excellent and truly one finds himself at no greater loss if he possesses your books alone."
Peter then goes on to say that he uses the book for teaching Sunday School and in devotions with family and friends. He concludes by writing...
"LMW is an answer to prayer."
A year earlier, Peter had received two OBR volumes paid for by the Letter Distribution Project—thanks to the generous support of donors like you.
You can help provide one OBR volume to a man like Peter by sending a gift of $33 to the Letter Distribution Project. Click here.
This is an extremely valuable project—
The Most Urgent Needs Project
—as it targets your gift for our most urgent needs.
Each year we receive hundreds of requests from churches, pastors, and mission organizations to hold Outline Bible Workshops in their countries. We must begin planning these trips 12-15 months in advance.
We fund these workshops through the generous gifts of donors from across the world. Some donors have even become team members on our missions trips.
These volunteers are trained in advance of the workshops using Outline Bible Resources, so they can help train others. Most teams are made up of 2 to 6 people.
As undesignated project contributions are received by LMW, they are placed in Most Urgent Projects. However, any gift you make can be designated "Most Urgent Project." This helps cover the costs of upcoming workshops, distribution of free materials to those who cannot afford them, and other urgent project needs. Click here to make a donation online.

“Now I am a rich man!”

Translation Projects
LMW takes an active part in the translation of OBR materials into Russian and Chinese. Several Russian volumes are already in print and are available. Please call our office at 1-800-987-8790 or email us for more information.
The Chinese translation is the largest project ever undertaken by LMW. After more than 8 years of diligent work, the first Chinese volumes of The Preacher's Outline & Sermon Bible® are now in print!
Because Chinese pastors largely lack resources of any kind, The Preacher's Outline & Sermon Bible® is a tremendous opportunity to truly help these pastors reach the Chinese people for Christ.
We have therefore partnered with Amazing Grace International (AGI) to print and distribute OBR materials to Chinese speaking people throughout the world.
You can specify which translation project you would like to support. Simply mark your donation"Russian Translation Project" or "Chinese Translation Project." Click here to make a donation online.
