Explore the Bible Display

 Take a moment to visit our Bible Display from Pioneer Bible Translators. It’s a visual reminder of both the abundance of God’s Word available to us and the need for translation in many parts of the world. The display is divided into three sections: 

  • Translated Bibles: Representing languages where God’s Word is now accessible. 
  • In Progress: Showcasing ongoing translation efforts. 
  • Empty Section: A solemn symbol for the people who still lack access to the Bible in their native language. 

Let this display inspire us to pray, give, and support the mission of Bible translation worldwide.

We are partnering with Pioneer Bible Translators to bring the Gospel of Mark to the Oma people in Southeast Asia, an unreached group. Here’s how you can make a difference:

  • Goal: To translate the Gospel of Mark. 
  • How to Give: Donate through the Love Offering with the note “Verse by Verse.” 

The challenge ends on 12/15, so let’s finish strong! Pray about how many verses God is calling you to sponsor, and let’s work together to spread His Word.
