Lutheran Bible Translators - Amy Formella

 

Lutheran Bible Translators makes God's Word accessible to those who do not yet have it in the language of their hearts. God is transforming the lives of people around the world as they read and use His Word in their heart language through our translators. Because Lutheran Bible Translators goal is impact, not production. We work with either pre-literate or semi-literate peoples. Printed books are not a part of their life. It takes creative and intentional effort to help individuals, families, and even congregations read, hear and interact with Scripture within their daily activities. The Bible has no impact unless the Word engages deeply within. Over 1 billion people worldwide do not have the full Bible in a language that touches them deeply. An estimated 165 million do not have a single verse of Scripture. Supporting our missionaries in translation is very important in spreading the Word.
