Jud Jusell and Teri Sheffield of TWFTW USA holding copies of the newly-published New Testaments in Dawro, Gamo and Gofa.
“Happy are those who… find joy in obeying the Word of the Lord, and they study it day and night” (Psalms 1.2).
November 2011 was a joyous month for three nations in Ethiopia. The New Testament was published in the languages of the Dawro, Gamo and Gofa people!
This was a joint project between The Word for the World and The Seed Company. The translators were all members of the Dawro, Gamo and Gofa nations, who were translating into their own language. They were trained in The Word for the World’s training program, and were assisted by consultants from both organizations.
There will be frequent postings here on our homepage so visit us often!
Come and celebrate with the Chikunda people of Zimbabwe! They recently received The New Testament in their heart language, for the very first time! On the 1st August 2009, many government and church leaders, dignitaries, school teachers and children celebrated with supporters and local people. So many TWFTW partners and team members worked together to accomplish this victory! All glory and honour to God.
There were several outreaches by churches to the Achikunda. These churches also bought copies of the Bibles and distributed them. Please pray for provision for the 3,600 remaining copies of the Chikunda New Testament.
