Praise God for the songs that were composed and recorded by young Kassin musicians. The songs carry God’s Word in familiar rhythms and are now used in Sunday school lessons. Lord, build faith in the younger generation as they learn Your Word in their language through these songs. Kassin - South Asia 📍

Scripture is not translated in a bubble.

It takes the teamwork of people who speak and care for a language, trained experts, community volunteers, national visionaries, and your practical help and prayers. 🤝📖

Praise God with us that the translation team in Wambra community completed four new books of the Bible in the first five months of this year. The mother-tongue books are ready for sharing in this remote area of Highland Asia!

Translator Maanvir has completed a recording of the books of Psalms and Proverbs in the Gurija language. He said, "It felt as if every Psalm was speaking directly to my soul." Lord, we pray for these recordings to find their way to thousands of Gurija people who have never heard about You.

Nirgam Project - South Asia 📍

Praise God that translations of the Gospel of Luke, 1 Timothy, and 2 Thessalonians were quality-checked with a consultant! The work sessions left a positive impression on Usidi, a Nirgam believer who participated in this last step of translation. Usidi helped find Nirgam words to express difficult concepts like mercy, grace, and clear conscience.
