Wycliffe Bible Translators - 1.5 billion people are still waiting for the Bible in the language they know best. That means 1 in 5 people are still waiting for the Bible in their own language. A West Asian translator wrote 'How will my people know that God loves them if they do not have the message in their own language'. It is the vision of Wycliffe Bible Translators to see the Bible translated into every language and dialect across the world. The good news is last year more than one new translation was launched every week. It is difficult work which can meet with some resistance. We pray for this vital work and the translators that their vision may be fulfilled and many may find that 'God loves them'.
Tearfund – We give thanks for the life changing effects of the Haryali hubs in Pakistan. These hubs are about waste management, creating a cleaner environment for people, preventing diseases which thrive when waste isn’t properly dealt with. The management of the hubs provide employment. The local government has now agreed to take over the hubs and to keep them running. Thank God for the willingness of political leaders to take ownership of this enterprise and pray for continued future commitment. Tearfund and its partners were instrumental in setting up these hubs.
