#BibleForEveryone

Together with illumiNations, a partnership of Bible translation agencies, we have been working to provide funds to translate God’s Word for the almost 1 billion people who still don’t have it in their language. Our goal is that by the year 2033, 95% of the world’s population will have a complete Bible, 99.9% will have a complete New Testament, and 100% will have at least some portion of Scripture.

This year we raised $1 million for translation projects in the Republic of Congo, Malawi, Benin, Indonesia, Croatia, Madagascar, and Serbia. These projects will provide over 4 million people with the first Bible ever available in their heart language.

By the end of 2019, #BibleForEveryone will have contributed a cumulative, all-time total of $3 million to fund Bible translation.
