Dear Friends,

Reading has long been an important part of my life. If you'll look around the building that houses the Christian Library, you will see that this importance is exemplified not only by the books, but also in the businesses here and the pictures scattered throughout the building.

It has been exciting to learn that books have been an important part of history, including the history of God's chosen people, the Jews. They have become known as the "people of the book." It's exciting to know that God revealed Himself through the written word as well as through His Son, Jesus, the Word incarnate.

We have a pamphlet in the library that was given to me a number of years ago entitled: Books, God's tools in the history of salvation. It contains fascinating stories of people down through the centuries who have been influenced to become Christians through reading books.

Thank you for your part in supporting the Christian Library this past year. Because of your donations, we have been able to continue. We are loaning books out, helping people who are studying for classes, providing a quiet place for study, and giving books to other Christian organizations including a homeless shelter and prison ministry.

May God richly bless you in 2010.

Joann Bowman
