Standing STRONG – Fall 2011 Scripture Celebration

The grass withers and the flowers fade, 
but the Word of our God stands forever.      
Isaiah 40:8  (NLT)

“Standing STRONG” was the theme to celebrate the extraordinary work that God is doing all over the world. October 14 at the Wycliffe Discovery Center in Orlando twenty three recently completed New Testaments and Bibles for the Americas, Asia, Africa and the Pacific were dedicated. This represents the availability of God’s Word in the heart language of 13,521,950 speakers:  

        World Area       Speakers
        Americas            524,790
        Asia                    974,960
        Africa             11,986,000
        Pacific                  36,200

PRAISE God for the completion of these Scripture projects. Please continue to PRAY for the 2,078 languages that still need a translation project started. To learn more, visit www.lastlanguagescampaign.org.  

This was my first semi-annual Scripture Celebration to attend, and an uplifting day it was. Along with the excitement of seeing the recently completely translations, I was glad to meet in person my coach in the partnership development process. Jean Pederson lives in Wyoming.

It was a pleasure to run into a missions pastor I knew from an east FL coast church and join his committee for lunch in the Discovery Center. Inspiring group of folks...an exemplary Acts 1:8 church. So good to visit with my recruiter and other Wycliffe staff plus friends from “Perspectives” class preparing for full-time missions.
