The Challenge

Through the Bible, God speaks directly to every person. Unless people have the Scriptures in their heart language they cannot fully understand his message of life and hope. This is still the case for around two thousand language communities which still don’t have even one Bible verse in their heart language.

Great progress has been made by the baby boomers with Wycliffe members worldwide contributing towards the completion of New Testaments from 1970 to 2000. With baby boomers getting a little older the challenge and the opportunity now lies with the next generation to see Bible translation in progress among every language that needs it.

To achieve this we need many more people to join our team. We hope this will include a good number of Aussies who have a love for Jesus, a heart for justice and who have experienced the power of his Word.

Many churches are being planted through Bible translation. What better tool could be given to a newly planted church?

Join the team by praying, supporting financially, or serving in the task. Are you up to the challenge?

The Bible has the power to change lives, and is never as easily understood as it is in your own heart language.
