“For years, we have prayed for this day,” exclaimed Aziz* who lives in Eurasia.
Aziz was part of a historic gathering taking place in an area of the world where it is challenging to follow Jesus.
He was surrounded by joyful Christians who were singing, clapping and dancing in praise to God. They were part of a three-day celebration to mark the publication of the Bible in their language.
One of the men at the gathering was a judge who was previously opposed to Christianity. But the Holy Spirit opened his heart and used the words of Scripture to draw him to Jesus.
Now that same man was in the courtyard, worshipping God with people he once opposed! As Jesus promised, “Humanly speaking, it is impossible. But with God everything is possible” (Matthew 19:26, NLT).
All over the world, people’s hearts are responding to the work of the Holy Spirit. This is causing the global Church to expand at a rapid pace — just like in the Eurasian country where Aziz lives.
God is inviting us to join His global mission. Your gift today will help make it possible to say “yes” when our global partners ask us to join them in seeing Scripture made available for their communities. We have an opportunity to see lives changed as more people have God’s Word in a language and format they clearly understand!
Thank you for prayerfully considering your involvement in God’s worldwide movement of Bible translation.
