God’s Word for every person in his\/her heart language.<\/em><\/p>\n

The mission of The Word For The World is to empower nationals to translate the entire Bible for their own people.\u00a0 With over 70 current projects, TWFTW is operating in 8 countries in Africa, Europe, and Asia.<\/p>\n

The Word for the World trains nationals in the required skills and provides them with the support they need to accurately translate God\u2019s Word into their primary language.\u00a0 We partner with others to print and distribute the newly translated Scripture, and promote literacy and Scripture engagement where needed.<\/p>\n

We have 28 years of experience in Bible translation, and our unique, mobile training program results in Bibles that are among the most accurate, readily accepted, cost effective and timely (about 9% translated per year) Bible translations in the world.<\/p>\n
