Praying for the exhibition, for the people helping to run it, for the visitors who come to see it, that they might be touched by the Bible's message, and discover the one to whom the Bible is pointing.
Coming over to Normandy to be personally involved for some or all of the time. There are plenty of tasks that need doing before, during and after the exhibition!

Expo-Bible |
|
The Bible Exhibition is a marvellous way to reach out to French people and to other nationalities also in a
way that is culturally acceptable and also very effective. In addition to the many French visitors, we have
had visitors from the UK, the USA, Holland, Germany, South America, the Far East, the Middle East - and many
more places besides.
The exhibition takes visitors through the Bible, its history, its message and its contents. At the heart of
the exhibition is the message of the Gospel, of the work of the Lord Jesus Christ on the cross to save sinners.
It concludes with testimonies from those who have found new life in Christ, and recommendations that visitors
should read the Bible for themselves in order to find out more about it and its contents and particularly about
the one to whom the Bible points: the Lord Jesus Christ. In addition to the nearly forty exhibition panels,
there is also a display of Bibles in many different languages and from many periods of history.
There are various display stands that offer visitors the chance to choose their own free leaflets and Gospels.
There is also a book stall where visitors can buy from a range of Bibles and Christian books. One version of
the Bible that we have available is described as "A Bible for the price of a cup of coffee" and it
costs €1.50, which is about £1.25. There are also opportunities for team members to talk with visitors,
to answer their questions, to explain aspects of the Christian faith, and to share their testimony. |
