Book Angels
Promoting Literacy and Christian Character
Book Angels is a new ministry under the umbrella of Prepare the Way Ministries. The mission is to improve literacy, Biblical worldview, and character among children by lending free faith-based or character-building books directly to families. This project is part of Stephen and Sarah’s daughter Rebekah’s Stars and Stripes project with American Heritage Girls. She is currently fundraising with the goal to construct and stock a custom library, build two book collection drop boxes, and make a portable book display case. She would appreciate your prayers and support!
