About us
OUR VISION
Lives and communities are transformed through the Word translated into their languages and cultures for the glory of God.
OUR MISSION
To partner with the Church in bringing God’s Word to communities in their heart languages.
LINGUISTIC DIVERSITY
The over 7,000 languages in the world are a wonderful expression of God’s creativity! The extinction of minority languages results in a loss of identity, culture, inherited knowledge, and a part of God’s creation.
