God's Word in Action

Buy a Thomas Nelson Bible, Help a Child Through World Vision

Here's one way you can put God's Word into action today! Just purchase any Thomas Nelson Bible at a U.S. Christian retail store, and you will be helping fund World Vision’s emergency relief work addressing the tragic drought and famine now impacting an estimated 13.3 million people in the Horn of Africa, including thousands of refugee children. [Through September 2011 proceeds from Thomas Nelson Bibles had been used to help children around the world through World Vision's Child Health program, helping to provide them with vaccines, clean water, nutritious food, and basic hygiene and care.] Just look for the Thomas Nelson "house" logo (or Tommy Nelson children's logo) when you purchase a Bible at a Christian retail store and help put God's Word into action for children worldwide.

As of October 2011, Thomas Nelson has been able to donate $75,000 from the sale of Bibles to World Vision. With World Vision’s matching grants, that amount multiplies to $352,500 worth of help to improve the life of children in 24 countries, and now focusing specifically on the Horn of Africa. More than 8,000 children will be helped through this donation to date, with more yet to come.

Iranyitse, Burundi (20 months)

Jon Warren/World Vision,

Iranyitse had been suffering from diarrhea for 3 days, growing weaker & weaker. His mom who had already lost three other children due to various illnesses, walked for 3 hours to bring him to the Kizi Health Center in Gasorwe, Burundi. The clinic had run out of medicines until it received a World Vision pharmaceutical shipment. They were able to provide oral hydration, deworming medicine, & amoxicillin to treat Iranyitse and save his life.

Julie M, U.S. (2 years old)

Laura Reinhardt/World Vision

When Julie M's family was placed in a homeless shelter, World Vision was there to help. World Vision works to provide necessities for disadvantaged children, including personal care items such as clothing & hygiene materials. As kids get ready to go back to school, World Vision helps out by supplying backpacks filled with materials to get the kids prepared. They also provide the shelter with toys and books at Christmas time.
