But blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him. He will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit. -Jeremiah 17:7,8

Kingdom Kids help fund Bible translation

Kingdom Kids from Redeemer Presbyterian Church bring in their Sunday School offering to help fund Bible translation. The latest project that they have chosen to participate in is to provide Bible storybooks for the Huaylas Quechua children in Peru. They have saved their nickels, dimes and pennies to give the Quechua children Bible storybooks to read. $25 will fund 10 storybooks.

Kingdom Kids support Bible translation

Kingdom Kids from Redeemer Presbyterian Church learn how they can help support Bible translation by donating old cell phones to Wycliffe Bible Translators. For every used cell phone that is turned in, Wycliffe receives funds which are then used to help Bible translation.

Wycliffe's Spring 2011 Scripture Celebration


During our Spring 2011 Scripture Celebration at Wycliffe USA, we celebrated the completion of over 20 recently completed New Testaments and Bibles. We are thrilled to see these Scriptures finally arrive in the hands of the communities they serve, and we pray that God will speak to these people through His Word.

Wycliffe also hosted the Americas Area Celebration, “Spreading the Flame,” in which representatives from North and South America celebrated the fact that only 50 languages remain to be translated in the Americas. In this photo, Elise is interviewing Chief Kenny Blacksmith, of the Cree Nation in Mistissini Lake, Quebec, Canada. Kenny and his wife Louise helped with the translation of the Cree New Testament.
