Dear partner in reaching the world for Christ,

A recent note from a friend of the ministry really touched my heart:

"This gift is made possible through the sacrifice of the lives of the 37 U.S. Navy men who were killed in action by Iraqi missiles aboard the USS Stark on May 17th, 1987, and is made in memory of them. Romans 8:28."

In a follow-up email, this friend goes on to share, "My husband also served in 'Nam and was one of those KIA on the Stark. My son (age five) and I were over there in the Persian Gulf at the time the attack occurred. We have had many opportunities to give our testimony about the incident since then, praise the Lord! We encourage others to give RDKs in memory, also. God bless!"

Again and again I have been greatly encouraged by the ways people like you reach out to our men and women in uniform. As our troops continue to face tremendous challenges and danger, your prayers and gifts are truly making a difference.

In the most difficult and dark circumstances, many troops turn to the materials included in each Rapid Deployment Kit-a New Testament with Psalms and Proverbs, a daily devotional, and a booklet that clearly shares the Gospel-to find comfort and hope. And many more service members are asking for these spiritual resources.

This March alone, more than 25,000 RDKs were distributed. Without the generosity of people like you, it simply would not be possible to respond to the numerous requests from chaplains, soldiers, military family members, and others.

As you can see from March's distribution, the demand for RDKs in recent months has remained high. With more troops preparing for deployment, would you prayerfully consider how you might help ensure that our men and women in uniform are reached with God's Word?

Including shipping and distribution costs, each Kit-small enough to be carried in a soldier's pocket and packaged in a waterproof bag-still costs just $3.25.

So your gift of $52 would provide 16 RDKs; $130 would help provide 40 RDKs. A greater gift of $650 (200 RDKs) or even $1,300 (400 RDKs) would help reach even more troops for Christ. Any amount that you could give would do so much to share God's Word with soldiers who are looking for real comfort and hope.

Thank you for your support and prayers for our troops. May God bless you.

Yours for reaching the world for Christ,

Steve Sellers
Vice President of the Americas
