A quick update after a month long absence - The Swahili bookmarks that I have been working on have finally been printed!
I printed a 1000 of each design, refer to my christian shop for them.
About 700 have been given to my dear friend to bring to Africa while the rest are currently FREE for whoever has a desire to bless and reach out to people who read Swahili. As these bookmarks are completed with the blessing of God’s resources, I want to make good use of them and therefore require whoever who wants these bookmarks to let me know the purpose of having them (i.e. not for your own use or to keep in the drawer).
I am not sure how these bookmarks will bless anyone but pray and trust God that they will be!
Hi!
I found your site ” by accident”, and would love to have some of your Swahili bookmarks.
I work with refugees outside of Atlanta GA
We have many from Burundi, Congo, Somalia, and others who speak Swahili as a first or second language. We are also meeting with a small group of Burundian/ Rwandan women for Bible Study.
Please let us know of any expense for these, as we would love to have them to pass out to our friends!
Hey, so good to hear from you and am so happy that you found my site ‘by accident’!
Have emailed you, can’t wait to hear from you soon.
Hello! I am an ESL teacher at my church in Amarillo, Texas. I am also a Bible Study teacher on Sunday morning for a wonderful group of Burundians. We also have people in our International Department from Sudan and Liberia. I would love to have some of your bookmarks. Please let me know what the postage and/or cost is for the bookmarks.
God Bless!

Hi Gina, have emailed you but yet to receive your reply. I used the email that you input when making the comment to this post, is that the email account that you are checking?
Thanks and look forward to hearing from you!
Dear Sister Mei,
Greetings from Kenya!
I just visited your blog and wanted to thank you for your willingness to bless others with your talent through those wonderful bookmarks.
Kindly give us a time to consult with the local post office here in Kenya concerning the terms of receiving such packages from abroad. And if we find it convenient, we will then get back to you again. We certainly would not want the precious resources you send end up just getting wasted. Lately, Kenya post office regulations have changed and the process of claiming the parcels from abroad became little more complicated. Another option is for you to send them to us via DHL, which however will be quite costly on your side.
May the Lord continue to bless you and the works of your hands is our prayer.
Sincerely yours,
Pastor Paul Lee

Dear Mei,
Kindly send us some few copies of the bookmarks with Swahili bible verses for us to see. I hope most Swahili bible readers will like them.
I personally truly appreciate your service to the Lord in that area. May the Lord himself bless you abundantly!
Dastan.
To Paul Lee, thanks for your very prompt email replies and I am praying that the 600 bookmarks can get to you by wednesday!
To Dastan, will be emailing you in a minute.
