Joining the Translation Process

My 6th grade class had a really neat opportunity to be apart of the Bible translating team. They were able to do some checking before the final copies of the New Testaments were sent to the Yawa people group here in Papua. They flipped through every single page of the NT and wrote down any folded pages, smudged ink, or other things. That's stuff their parents do, and now they're doing it too! :)







Please pray for this class. We are leading chapel this Thursday in front of the whole school! Pray that the students will remember their script lines, song lyrics, speak loud and clear, and most of all that God would receive the maximum amount of glory!

P.S. Josh has spent the past week in the village with some of our great friends helping lay the foundation for their village home, where God's Word will be translated! Pray for them as they wrap up that part of the job. A building team will join them from America to continue the building project. :)
