Dear Brothers and Sisters in Ministry,
I hope everyone is doing well and that you are encouraged in your work as you labor for the Lord Jesus on the streets of our great city.
We want to present you with a great opportunity to partner with Peasant Saints in raising funds for a new million dollar bill that we have written and designed ourselves for our evangelistic work on the streets of Houston. Here are the details:
1. We are using our very own Sam Houston, sketched by Mac Garcia, on the front of the bill so it's Texas proud! The tract will also include our website with a QR code to point people to helpful resources, including a local church finder.
2. The total cost will be $615: $75 for the template, and $540 for 10,000 tracts shrink wrapped in packs of 100.
That's where you come in! If you would like to give a gift toward this project, any amount would be helpful. You can make a tax-deductible gift to The Peasant Saints via PayPal by clicking the “Donate” button under “Support Us Financially” by going to the following link.

You can also message us for details on sending payment by check. Any excess gifts will be put toward additional tracts or Bibles for use in ministry.
In return, those who donate will receive a pack of these newly designed tracts so that you too can get involved in sharing the Good News!
Below is the text on the back of the tract, along with images of the actual bill.
Thanks for your support!
"If you have a million dollars, what would you spend it on? Cars? Houses? Clothes? Most of us think of material and temporal things. The Bible reveals Jesus as worth more than anything money can buy. But we value sin more than Jesus - is that your case? Let's look at God's standards found in His Law to see if this is true: Ever lied or stolen anything? Ever used God's name in vain? Ever looked with lust? Jesus said, “Whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.” Listen to your conscience. If you are guilty of these then God sees you as a lying, thieving, blasphemous, adulterer at heart. God is holy and just which means he will punish sinners for eternity in hell.
But there's good news! God sent Jesus, who is fully God and fully man, to live a sinless life yet die a sinner's death. By His life, He kept and fulfilled the Law that we were commanded to obey and by His death He took the punishment of sin upon Himself by suffering under God’s wrath and dying on the cross. Then He rose from the grave—defeating death and will one day return again where He will rule over all the earth.
Jesus said, “Repent, and believe in the gospel.” Turn from your sins and place your faith in the Greatest Treasure on earth, Jesus Christ."
