Mission Highlight: Wycliffe Bible Translators

Bible Translation is for everyone. There are 7378 different languages in the world and the Bible has been translated, at least in part, into 3495 different languages. Since one of the Holy Spirit’s jobs is to breathe life into God’s word, that means that the Holy Spirit is working in ALL of these places. But millions of people still need God’s word in their own language.
