A Christmas Update from the Westminster Bookstore
“Then Samuel took a stone and set it up between Mizpah and Shen and called its name Ebenezer; for he said, ‘Till now the LORD has helped us.’”–1 Samuel 7:12
Following the example of Samuel’s Ebenezer stone, as we like to do each year, I wanted to pause at the end of 2021 and share with you the ways the LORD has helped us “till now.” Reflecting on the recent history of the Bookstore I've noticed a shift in our prayers. 5 years ago we were asking, “LORD, if we have any use to your church, keep us open.” That was the season of survival. 3 years ago, we prayed “give us stability” and he did, even through those early months of COVID. We began 2021 with a growing boldness to ask, “LORD, extend our reach.” As the year closes it's clear that he has answered that prayer too. Specifically, he has extended our reach by bringing 105,969 more visits to our site and 10,237 more orders shipped out from our warehouse compared to 2020. This amounts to 350,000 biblically faithful books and Bibles distributed to 14,738 different cities and towns around the world. We received 1,474 specific prayer requests sent in from customers and spent a total of 622 hours on the phone. Praise God from whom all blessings flow! All of this would not be possible without faithful support from Kingdom Friendships like yours. Whether you’re purchasing a book from us (instead of Amazon), offering a prayer on our behalf, or contributing financially to the Westminster Fund, you are directly enabling us to expand the ministries of Westminster Bookstore and Seminary. Please join us in praising our God for what he has done through us in 2021, and pray that God would use our efforts to bring the glory of His name to the ends of the earth in 2022. All Glory to God in the Highest, and Peace to You and Your Families this Christmas Season!
