Navigators: Moving Bible Translation Forward Through Prayer

This weekend, we hosted an informative event at the Wycliffe USA headquarters here in Orlando, Florida. The event began at 11:00 AM and ended around 4:00 PM on Saturday, July 16. Attending were 195 students and staff from the Navigators program (http://www.navigators.org/us/). The purpose of the event was to inform this group of students about the Bible translation visions, needs, and process and to provide them with opportunities to become involved. One of the most valuable things anyone can do to help is to pray.

When we presented the Navigators group with the opportunity and challenge to join the Bibleless Peoples Prayer Project, they were enthused and eager to take part in furthering the Kingdom of God through Bible translation! Through this event, 100 students and staff have committed to praying for various Bibleless Peoples around the world--Praise the Lord!

Now there are 13,379 believers interceding on behalf of Bibleless people groups on a regular basis, presenting their petitions before our gracious and loving God!

So as you continue to pray, remember that you are not alone: there are 13,378 brothers and sisters praying along side of you for those who still need God's Word! Be encouraged--keep praying!

I love my job!

"Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus." -- 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
