“How Can I Understand?” Bible storybooks for children in Ethiopia

2,000 years ago, the Ethiopian eunuch couldn’t understand what the Bible was teaching. As he sat in his chariot puzzling over the Book of Isaiah, God sent His disciple, Philip, to help.

Today, Ethiopian children have the same problem. And just like Philip, your Sunday school, VBS or Lutheran day school students can help!

For children, the Bible’s hundreds of pages can seem overwhelming.

They need books, written on their level, to introduce them to the love of Jesus.

For young children, brightly illustrated, easy-to-read Bible storybooks can tell them in a simple way about the Savior Jesus and how He died for them. For teens who are old enough to start reading the Bible for themselves, Luther’s Small Catechism answers the question first posed centuries ago by the Ethiopian eunuch: “What does this mean?”

There are hundreds of Ethiopian Lutheran schools and Sunday schools packed with eager young students, but teachers face a dilemma: they have no Bible storybooks from which to teach. From week to week, they must make do with teaching the lessons to the children orally.

Your students can help change that – for just $5 per child!

Even the smallest Sunday schools can help. For every $5 your students can send to LHF, we can print a Bible storybook or Small Catechism in the languages of Ethiopia, such as Amharic, Oromo, Kambaata, Hadiyya, and many more!
