Publisher Promises Spiritual Sustenance to Hurricane Victims

God's Rainbow Book will give hope to Hurricane Katrina victims. On-demand publisher asks America to write book.

LONGWOOD, FL (PRWEB) September 16, 2005 -- Hurricane Katrinas fury and devastation riveted the worlds attention on the Gulf Coast for one harrowing week in late August, followed by the grisly aftermath of rescue and cleanup. But while many rushed to meet the physical needs of the survivors, Christian print-on-demand publisher Xulon Press has found a way to meet the spiritual needs of those whose homes and lives were ravaged by Katrina-in the form of a book, written by people all across America.

As a Christian book publisher, we cant offer the victims food and water, but we can offer spiritual sustenance through the Word," Tom Freiling, president and CEO of Xulon Press, said. So were asking believers across America to help us write a book offering victims encouragement and inspiration. Using print-on-demand, well have a book ready to ship in three weeks. For every book we sell, were donating 2 copies to the victims of the hurricane." The company plans to donate all proceeds from the sale of the books to getting copies in the hands of victims.

Titled Gods Rainbow Book, the 150-page trade paperback book will include special notes, prayers, poems, and stories written by ordinary people who put their faith in God. By purchasing a copy, readers will help to place this hope-inspiring book into the hands of a hurricane survivor. After facing a disaster of biblical proportions, the victims of Hurricane Katrina will need the kind of inspiration only God can provide. Without hope and faith, imagine how easy it would be to sink into despair. For some, starting a new life will mean starting from scratch; it wont be easy to get back on their feet.

Xulon Press invites Christians to help write this book by going to the website www.GodsRainbowBook.org and typing a short prayer, inspirational thought, story, or psalm/poem to remind the hurricane victims of Gods promises, given in the account of Noahs flood in Genesis 9:12-16. Xulon editors will then compile these online submissions into a book that will be ready to ship to readers-and to hurricane rescue sites-in just three weeks.

Xulon Press is a Christian publisher that harnesses digital and print-on-demand technology to publish books in as little as 45 days. The company has published more than 2,000 books (www.XulonPress.com).
