Nirgam Project - South Asia π
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.
