Gospel Light Worldwide Opens Henrietta’s Hope Chest to Share the Private Collection of Henrietta Mears with Special Friends

Henrietta’s Hope Chest is a private website developed expressly to celebrate the life and contributions of the colorful Gospel Light founder and legendary Bible teacher Henrietta Mears with our friends and friends of  Gospel Light. Aside from what you normally receive on a social networking site; Henrietta’s Hope Chest also features rare photos, seldom seen handwritten notes and letters, unpublished travel journals, an Insider’s view at Gospel Light Worldwide and more.

There are only two ways to receive an invitation. The first way to receive an invitation is to contribute at least $1,000 or $83 per month to Gospel Light Worldwide to help 1,000 children enter and grow in a personal relationship with Jesus; as part of their One Million Children campaign. The second is to be invited by someone who is already a member.

A hope chest is a place where unmarried young women keep special items in anticipation of future marriages or married lives. Henrietta Mears never married but she did raise up over 400 of the most influential Christians of the 20^th century including Billy Graham, Bill Bright and Richard Halverson.

She was known for her world travels and working amongst the glitz and glamour of Hollywood from the 1930s to the 1960s. Henrietta Mears had the courage and faith to dream big and she inspired others to do the same.  Simply known as “Teacher” to her students, Henrietta was bigger than life and like Oprah today, she helped shape America and the world.

Henrietta said, “Youth do not think into the future far enough. Therefore, we must encourage them to dream of great tomorrows.” She also helped millions of people with her simple, insightful and bestselling book, What the Bible is All About.

Henrietta’s Hope chest is currently offered in a Beta version.
