The Christian Post is reporting that The Gideons, known for their excellent Bible distribution methods to the school children (fifth grade and older), military chaplains for distribution to our solders, prisoners, and police / fire / medical / military personnel are celebrating 100 years of Bible distribution.

Bibles provided by the Gideons are still commonly seen today in hotels (look in the top drawer of the nightstand), hospitals, doctor’s offices, prisons, jails, domestic violence shelters, and nursing homes.

Happy birthday Gideons and may you have many many more as you keep up the great work of evangelism.
