20 BIBLES

A Faith-Based Domestic Violence Outreach Project

Project Overview

My name is Leigh Ann, and I am developing a faith-based outreach project called 20 Bibles.

The idea began with a simple question: What if a woman experiencing domestic violence received not only a Bible, but also a resource that helped her understand what she was experiencing, recognize unhealthy patterns, find practical help, and know that she does not have to face it alone?

The goal of 20 Bibles is to create 20 individual outreach packets for women who may be experiencing domestic violence or recovering from an abusive relationship.

Each packet would include:

• A Bible
• A domestic-violence Bible study guide
• Scripture and guided reflection
• Information about healthy relationships, boundaries, and abuse
• Safety and crisis resources
• Encouragement for healing and rebuilding
• Information connecting women with professional domestic-violence services

The Heart Behind the Project

This project comes from lived experience. I have personally experienced trauma and domestic violence, and I understand how difficult it can be to feel isolated, confused, afraid, or unsure of where to turn.

My desire is to take those experiences and create something that can help another woman feel seen and supported.

I believe faith can be an important part of healing, while also recognizing that women experiencing abuse need practical safety planning, professional support, and community resources alongside spiritual encouragement.

What I Am Looking For

I am currently seeking a ministry or organization willing to help me develop this idea responsibly.

A potential ministry partner could assist with:

• Bible donations

• Printing and supplies

• Financial sponsorship

• Professional review of the study guide

• Trauma-informed and domestic-violence advocacy guidance

• Distribution through churches, shelters, or community organizations

• Mentorship as the project develops

I am not simply asking for financial assistance. I am looking for partnership, guidance, and accountability so that this project can be created in a way that is biblically grounded, survivor-centered, and safe.

The Long-Term Vision

The initial goal is 20 women.

But 20 is only the beginning.

My hope is that, with the right ministry partnership, this could eventually become a repeatable outreach program that churches and ministries could use to provide Bibles, education, encouragement, and connections to appropriate domestic-violence resources.

The mission is simple:

To place Scripture, hope, practical resources, and a pathway to help into the hands of women who may feel completely alone.

I believe one Bible, one resource, and one person willing to reach out can become the beginning of something much bigger.
