October 2015 – In Marshalltown, Iowa, 18 churches joined together in a citywide effort to deliver a Bible to every home in town. The project required 12,000 Bibles and was funded by $18,000 donated by anonymous members from the churches.

In April, volunteers wearing t-shirts that read, “Hope 4 You – Hope 4 Iowa,” went door-to-door handing out Bibles chosen to meet the needs of the diverse community. The Bibles given away included 10,000 easy to read English versions, 1,500 Spanish versions, 500 large print English versions, and 100 Karen (Burmese) versions.
