Mission Printing Ships
Sea Container to Ghana

On October 24th, nine Christians gathered at the Mission Printing building to load a 20 ft. sea container that would eventually arrive in Ghana sometime in December. Those that were here to load the container: Alma Arterburn, Bruce & Mary Carroll, Michael Carroll, Vendall Dollarhide, Tom Garner, Steven Hetherington, Richard Renfro, Bill Saathoff, and Clint Walton. This list does not include all the people that packed the boxes or worked on the material in some other way.

The container was filled with 30,000 lbs. of Bible studies for Ghana. The cost was $8,637. Compare that to a cost of $98,100 if we had mailed the same amount of material in individual parcels. That is a savings in the area of $89,500!

The material will be shipped to Willie Gley in Accra, Ghana. He has the facilities to store and distribute the material. He will also serve as our contact for other congregations and individuals that might

Mission Printing is making plans to ship containers to Nigeria and India as well. We are committed to getting the word of God into the hands of people throughout the world. We are also committed to being good stewards of the resources that God blesses us with through your gifts.

Thank you very much for your allowing us to join you be using your printed pages in teaching Christ to any and all who wish to learn more about Jesus, We admire the great husband and wife team that started Mission Printing 30 years ago, Guy and Jessie Lee Caskey, and the many others who have done so much over the years to bring Jesus Christ into the homes of people all over the world. You have made our job easier by allowing us to use your material to train the young and old and to reach the poor.

We feel from your newsletters that you all enjoy doing what you do! Isn't that wonderful! Contratulations on 30 years!

George & Edith Philley
Coquille, OR


I have received your material in the past and I am pleased to have read the genuine spiritual food that you offer to everybody in the form of the printed page. I prayed that God would bless you in this work for Him.

God has blessed me abundantly in this life and so I'm able to help others who don't have booklets and other study aids to help them understand God's holy word.

Thank you for spreading the gospel as you do and for being the laborers in the Lord's Fields.

The reading of the word of God can reach so many who are not acquainted with God. I pray that many who don't know their God will search His word for newness of life. I know Mission Printing can help people understand His word more fully.

I think you do a really good job at Mission Printing!

From the Heart of a Child...

What I'm Thankful For

By Caleb Dollarhide (10 years old)
Keller Church of Christ (Keller, TX)

I'm thankful for Mission Printing because of all the books they make to help people find God and be stronger.

I'm also thankful for GOD, because He created me and you! I'm thankful for everything that he us: clothes, food, shelter, family, animals, and everything else he made. I'm thankful for any chance I have to do things for God.

I'm thankful for Menonna and everything that she taught me before going to meet Jesus. I'm also thankful for Menonna because she taught me about the United States of America and how to play dominoes.

I'm thankful for Dad for protecting me and giving me all the things that I need to live.

I'm thankful for Mom. She loves me and she's my special friend. I know I make her upset sometimes, but no matter what she never stops loving me. I'm thankful that Mom likes helping my school get better.

I'm thankful for my brother Tyler for being so nice and complimenting me all the time. Well a lot of the time. I love to play legos with him too.

I'm thankful for my little sister Courtney. She is so cute, when she's not being a pain. Such as when I was trying to write how I was thankful for her.

I'm thankful for Memother and PaPa. Memother is an artist and she helps me to draw better. PaPa is my buddy and I love spending time with him. They are awesome!

I'm thankful for Grandma. I don't know a lot about her life, but I do know she loves me. I'm thankful that she comes to stay with us so she can hear about Jesus.

I'm thankful for the military since they fight to protect our freedom. They serve for justice and their love for our country. I'm also thankful for the army fighting in Iraq because they are trying to bring freedom to people that are hurting and scared.

I'm thankful for my friends because of the kindness, friendship, and love they give.

I'm especially thankful for the church. The family tha tis made to praise God. I'm Thankful I can pray when I want to. That's one freedom no one can steal from me.

“Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of God. Assuredly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, will be no means enter it.”

Mark 10:14–15

We appreciate Mission Printing's material so much. Mission Printing provides such a service to our brotherhood with regard to spiritual material that we need to help evangelize the world. Thanks for the materials you get to me for Nigerian evangelism from time to time.

Nzerekore, Guinea, Africa
Timothy Tongor

Please send more Biblical material on the church and doctrines of the church. We also request that you send books on the Christian life. The brethren in the church of Christ here are in need of scriptural material.

We also plead that you pray for us so that we can grow spiritually in Christ and in the Heavenly Father.

Solwezi, Zambia
Messenger Church of Christ
John Maseka

I am extremely happy and would like to thank you for your valuable assistance with books and Bibles. The material has contributed to improving the growth and good name of the church in our nation. The books have helped us to teach many people in our community. Some are even added to the Lord's church while others come to congregate with us every Sunday.

Please send us more Bibles and study books. I am sure that God, who began this good work in you, will continue to knit the threads of our ministries together so that many more souls will come to Christ.

Johannesburg, South Africa
Ennerdale Church of Christ
Phillip King

Thank you so very much fo rthe material! We sure do appreciate it brethren. I will distribute the books among the saints and with our sister congregations nearby. We sincerely would like to ask if Mission Printing would send us Bibles and hymn books. We have a great need for these throughout our area. Once again: THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THIS UPLIFTING MATERIAL!

Asankraugwa. Ghana
Kwabeng Church of Christ
Abraham Arbin

I am happy to inform you that the material that I requested for my area is working to perfection. I distributed the books to the leaders of the denominational churches in my village and they are really studying them! We pray that in the future they will believe and turn to the one true church. Some of them have started visiting us during our worship time. Others have requested Bibles and Mission Printing material.

Agiripalli, Krishna District
Andhra Pradesh, India
Agiripalli Church of Christ
G. Jacob

Thank you so very much for sending all the books and Bibles! Praise the Lord for woking through you! All of the material is useful for teaching the lost and maturing the saved.

Kumba, Cameroon
Tabi Martin Ameli

Thank you very much for being part of our ministry.

We put into use the material that Mission Printing provided. The studies are used for evangelism and church growth.

We were handicapped in that we lacked quality material from which to teach. Mission Printing has provided an abundent supply of scripturally sound studies that will make us and our work more fruitful.

Seke, Chitungwiza, Zimbabwe
Arthur Mvududu

I would like to thank Mission Printing for the material that you sent us. You sent us the Jesus Loves Us series. This series of lessons has been very helpful in our congregation in teaching the younger ones and for evangelizing the young people of our community

One of the major problems we face in our area is false doctrine. Our people are suffering from an overdose of such teachings. The material from Mission Printing has greatly equipped us for this challenge.

Saltpond. Ghana
Emmanuel Hagan

Evangelism by the printed page has proven to be the most economical way of sending the gospel to the unreached. These PAPER MISSIONARIES are the best hope we have to reach the masses of lost souls. It is our goal to bring people closer to the word of God.

Montgomery, AL
Panama Street Church of Christ
Frank Chesser

We received the material that you sent us by the request of Whiley Ballard (University Church of Christ, Tyler, TX). We are most appreciative of the studies. We plan to use them in our work and evangelistic efforts here.

Kano, Kano State, Nigeria
Jingfa Nancwat

I write to acknowledge and to show our appreciation for the teaching material wich Mission Printing set to our congregation. I am indeed happy to have them. I want to tell you that they are very useful in my effort to preach Christ.

Mission Printing's material has really helped people in Nigerial. I am writing to my sponsoring congregation today about the assistance you are offering me!

Clonbrook Village, Guyana
Ann's Grove Church of Christ &
Clonbrook Church of Christ
Feroze Baksh

We received the shipment of material you sent to us and we are very grateful. We had a campaign and gospel meeting July 6-10 and many of the materials were used. Nineteen souls surrendered their lives to the Lordship of Jesus Christ and were immersed in water for the forgiveness of their sins.

We are also doing follow–up work in the Ann's Grove area and are using the materials you sent. We are also grateful for the Jesus Loves Us series which is being used as our children's class cirriculum at Ann's Grove and Bee Hive. The songbooks are great too and we can use some more. THANKS for the materials. They are a great source of help to us in the work here.

Mission Printing
Needs Your Help

Mission Printing has plans to spread the word of God to even more areas of the worlld in the coming years and we need your help!

Financial aide is the part of our planning with which Mission Printing needs your immediate and ongoing help. The economic times have impaced us in a drastic manner. Our donations have decreased greatly due to the economic times and the deaths of several donors. While our donations have dropped, expenses have not.

We realize Mission Printing is not unique in this position and that you might be aiding other worthwhile and Christ–centered organizations. We are not asking you to cut back on any of your other commitments. We are simply asking you to increase your financial aide to Mission Printing, if only by a few dollars. With 2009 quickly coming to a close, this would be an ideal time to make a special donation. Perhaps you or your congregation had an exceptionally good year and you are able to send an EXTRA year end gift. This is also a good time of year to honor loved ones in your life or someone who has touched you in a special way. People often feel they can't give much and that it really wouldn't help to give so little. I am here to let you know that your “two minas” go further than what Satan would like you to think. If we had 500 people that could give $10 a month, it would increase our yearly donation by $60,000! Don't let Satan convince you that your gift can't go far. Your “small” gift will be felt around the world! God bless you all and may you continue to experience the glory of God.

Mission Printing offices will be closed the last two weeks of December. This will allow our staff and volunteers to spend time with their families.

If you need anything during this time, please call:

Vendall Dollarhide at 817–504–1834.

The offices will reopen on January 4.

I would like to thank all the voluneers that are a part of the Mission Printing family. I have been working with this ministry for six years and I has been incredible! I am humbled each and every day that we gather at Mission Printing. Our volunteers truly are a family that has a deep love for lost souls around the world.

I am constantly being encouraged and rejuvenated. The Mission Printing workers have taught me a great lesson that I will use all of my days. Youthfulness has nothing to do with our bodies; it has everything to do with our souls! I have gained a deeper appreciation of what God truly can do in our lives when we allow Him access. I want to thank all of our volunteers for being my teachers. It has been my sincere honor and pleasure to sit at your feet and learn from your words and deeds.
