Other Matters
Users in Australia. Australia is high on the nations list, with more than 8000 page views per quarter. This is good to see. Australia would be even higher on the list if we converted the figures to per capita.
Improved Distribution. For a long time users came to simplybible.com mainly through a small set of pages. These "landing pages" have gradually given way to more diverse entries into the site through a wide variety of lesson pages.
Facebook pages. We continued to work on our facebook pages. The longest running page (facebook.com/simplybible) now has 4677 followers. We don't like the many changes Facebook has made recently.
Sunday Worship. We continued to hold Sunday morning services in our home with one Christian lady meeting regularly with us using Zoom.
Farm Workers from Vanuata. As of June 2020, most of the ni-Vanuatu farm workers have been moved away from Childers. So we have provided some lessons online, and encouraged the Ni-Vans to meet by themselves.
Thank You
Your ongoing assistance with the Lord’s work is greatly appreciated, as are your prayers and your interest and belief in my work on the website. The service we provide on the internet fills a deep need for a world is in turmoil. Together we "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation".
Love and best wishes in Jesus.
