CARDS FOR UNREACHED PEOPLES
QUESTION From: Susan Patterson <caleb@nwinfo.net> I recall, I think it was about two years ago, that someone was making up cards for unreached people groups that had a color picture of a child...and a description of the people group on it. Can anyone tell me who was doing that?

ANSWER From: NateWilson@XC.org Those cards come from the Adopt-A-People Clearinghouse. They look so much like greeting cards that a mobilizer friend of mine mailed the Turkmen one as his Christmas card one year. If I remember correctly, the price was somewhere around 25 to 50 cents apeice for an order of a few hundred. Last I heard they had just over half a dozen profiles. They welcome new profiles, and said the set-up cost is around $1,000. AAPC's address is P.O. Box 28000, Chicago, IL 60628, Phone:708-367-8513. You can also contact them by email at <aapc@XC.org>.
