Several times over the last few weeks I have had the
opportunity to sit down with people and hand them a free copy of Asleep in Heaven’s Nursery. These people
were parents who had recently lost children to infant mortality, and I was
directed to them by mutual friends.
While there are no easy words to say in these situations, it
is an honor to be able to provide a free book that will hopefully answer some
questions they are facing, and that will definitely present the gospel.
Even though I am the one sitting on their couch and giving
them a free book, I am not the only one who plays a part. These books that I
have donated have been paid for through the Rachel Dowd Book Sponsorship
Program.
Rachel Dowd was stillborn on May 31st, 1995, to
Chuck and Carol Dowd in Alabama, and their story can be read in the Testimonies
section of Asleep in Heaven’s Nursery.
The Rachel Dowd Book Sponsorship Program was created to
provide free books as a ministry to those who have lost a child. A gift of just
$10 will put a book into the hands of one of these grieving parents.
Your donation is tax deductible, and it can be made in honor
of or in memory of someone. Gifts made in someone’s memory or honor will be
listed on the Tommy Mann Ministries Facebook Fan Page.
