Verse by Verse Challenge

Did you know that over 2,000 languages around the world still do not have a Bible translation? This month, we are supporting Pioneer Bible Translators through our Verse by Verse Challenge. Our mission: Translate the Gospel of Mark into the language of the Oma people, an unreached group in Southeast Asia. While a small, growing community of Oma Christians exists, they currently lack a modern Bible in their native language. For $35 per verse, you can help bring God’s Word to life for the Oma people. Prayerfully consider how many verses you would like to sponsor. Donations can be made through the Love Offering with a note: Verse by Verse. The challenge runs until 12/15.
