This email looks a little different! That\u2019s because I\u2019m sharing unfoldingWord\u2019s Christmas campaign (yeah, it’s a little early) so you can consider helping strengthen pastors and translators who are bringing God\u2019s Word to unreached people groups. Many of them serve in remote or challenging places where access to Scripture and support can be limited \u2014 yet they remain faithful to share the gospel with their people.
\nIt\u2019s easy to take for granted that we have access to Scripture in our own language and a church community to grow with \u2014 but for many believers around the world, that\u2019s not the case.
\nunfoldingWord hosts an annual Global Church-Centric Bible Translation Forum, where these leaders gather for training, encouragement, and community. It\u2019s a time for them to be refreshed and equipped to continue bringing Scripture to those who have never heard it. It’s a neat chance for the often persecuted church to meet others in similar situations and with a similar vision for their people or nation.
\nWhat’s more, there’s more than $15,000 left in a Matching Challenge that is doubling every gift right now! That means your support will go twice as far to equip pastors and translators with the tools and training they need to take the gospel to new places.
\nYou can give directly here: unfoldingword.org\/his-light2025
\nWould you consider helping the light of God\u2019s Word reach every nation and every people group?
