The Foundation of Bible Translation: Prayer and Praise
The foundation of Bible translation is prayer. Thanking God for the achievements made through Wycliffe Ethiopia is our way of acknowledging His divine mission.
We see God’s hand in our work. Every verse translated, every heart touched, and every community transformed by the Word is a testament to His faithfulness.
“Behold, how good and pleasant it is when brothers dwell in unity!” — Psalm 133:1
A powerful sense of shared purpose. At the Pastors Conference, unity, prayer, and meaningful dialogue brought together leaders from diverse denominations and backgrounds—not just as pastors, but as families in Christ.

The Crossroads of War and Sacrifice Reap a Kingdom of Harvest
Famous legends are not where everyone had an easy life. Stories that stick are those where there’s triumph after enduring times of sacrifice and hardship.
"And love the stranger, in giving him food and raiment."
“Truly, truly, God sent you in His time and hour, if the food aid that came through
Wycliffe had not come at the time it came, there would have been many
children and adults who would have lost their lives to hunger for months.”
Translation on a tree
There is no easy road when it comes to serving God and His Kingdom, and translation work is no exception. But for those who endure hours reading the bible in one language and transferring it into the heart language of another, the rewards are beyond verbal expression.
