Hospitals Requesting Scriptures
07 November 2023
The Society's free distribution of Bibles, New Testaments, and Gospels is frequently mentioned in our print and digital publications. Many supporters will have noticed that the majority of these go to non-Western countries, prisons, and schools. However, we recently received a request—which we were pleased to fulfil—from hospital chaplains in London requesting copies of the Authorised (King James) Version for patients. The gratitude of the chaplain was noted with the following words: ‘They are greatly appreciated by the patients and by the chaplaincy team. Without benefactors like TBS we would struggle to fulfil our patient's needs. Having something as meaningful as a Bible helps them maintain their faith when suffering traumatic experiences.’ Please remember the distribution of Scriptures in your prayers, that each copy would be gratefully received and a comfort to those undergoing medical treatment. ‘Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God’ (Philippians 4.6).
