Discover how SonLight Bible Club is reaching Amish and non-Amish children, youth, and adults with the gospel of Jesus Christ through Bible correspondence lessons sent right to their mailbox.

Mission to Amish People offers 28 Christ-centered Bible courses for ages 4 through adult. These lessons are simple, easy to understand, beautifully illustrated, and designed to help students grow in their understanding of God’s Word. Students can complete quizzes, earn awards, and receive certificates as they progress through the program.

Whether it is learning about salvation, Christian living, discipleship, or sharing the gospel with others, SonLight Bible Club is helping people discover the truth of Scripture and the grace of Jesus Christ.

In this update, we want to share both the joys and the challenges happening across Mission to Amish People. You will read about urgent ministry needs, exciting growth within the SonLight Club and other outreach efforts, meeting with former Amish believers to study the Bible, and sharing the vision God continues to place before us for the future.

More than anything, we ask for your prayers. Please pray that the Lord would raise up laborers who are grounded in His Word and willing to help disciple those coming out of Amish communities.

Thank you for standing with us, loving us, encouraging us, and helping make it possible for the gospel to continue reaching hearts and homes across Amish America.

Joe and Esther Keim, Samuel and Polly Girod

We missed connecting with you last month due to the conference, but, today, we are excited to share a brand new ministry update. In this ministry update, you will hear from Jen and Jen, and from me (Joe).

We would greatly appreciate your prayers for two needs. First, we are seeking a bookkeeper and are willing to train the right person on QuickBooks. Second, we will need a GED teacher by this fall. Both positions must be based out of the MAP office and cannot be done remotely.

Thank you for praying and for walking with us as we continue reaching our beloved with the simple gospel.
