Those that don't want them will return them, but many will be taken. Put a sign on them that says "FREE". Great for any kind of office or store!

66  The Gospels act as a reminder. If we are praying each day that God will set up appointments for us to share our faith and give someone a Gospel, He will do just that.

67  Wherever I am, if a stranger smiles at me or says hello, I say "Excuse me, I am supposed to give one of these to any one who smiles or says hello!". They always take the Gospels and keep smiling!
