As we consider schools, there are two simple
          requests to share, simple but crucial for the
          continuance of work in schools.
          •   Please pray for every ‘closed school’ to be
             open. It is such a blessing to place Testaments
             into the hands of school pupils, but many
             schools do not allow that opportunity.
          •   Often schools are not regularly visited because
             there are not enough members in that area.
             Please consider if you would be willing to join
             and help in schools.

          Hospitals

          Testaments are placed by bedsides in many
          hospitals, either by members of GOOD NEWS for
          Everyone! or by hospital chaplains. Cynthia found
          a copy of God’s word at a time of great need. Here
          are some extracts from her testimony:





          I was a music student at the Royal College of
          Music; I went straight from boarding school into
          life in London and I was excited to be studying
          in such a prestigious institution. However, my
          weekly college timetable was somewhat thin
          as we were expected to spend a lot of time
          practising, and the result was that I became
          quite lonely and unhappy. Within a short
          time, I began to diet, and this led to a fear of
          food and the circumstances around which it
          featured. This hidden life of anorexia continued
          throughout my three years at the college and
          then through a year’s scholarship in Geneva.
          My parents and family were obviously very
          concerned, but nothing seemed to change
          my eating habits, and I was resistant to their
          pleas to stop.
