All Glory to God! We thank IS/IVCF for inviting Wycliffe to this camp. It was held on
15 January 2016, at the camp grounds,
Maracas, St Joseph. Wycliffe did a presentation table and was also part
of a panel discussion, along with other
mission agencies. We are
believing the Lord for much fruit as a
result.

Wycliffe Caribbean Newsletter 2015!
SCRIPTURE VERSE: Rev 7: 9–10 . 9 After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands. 10 And they cried out in a loud voice: “Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb.”

“We faithfully preach the truth. God’s power is working in us (2 Corinthians 6: 7NLT) Despite the challenges of cult activity, translation personnel report that the Baruga church is strong. They also marvel at the fact that, nearly all the music they hear around the village is Christian. Source: https://www.wycliffe.org/prayer/
“My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations” (Isaiah 56:7) and (Mark 11:17).
In Prayer for the Bibleless, our colleagues, the Displaced, the Persecuted, the nations.
The chapel on the edge of the Nairobi University campus is buzz-ing with more than 200 excited university students, gathered for a mid-week evening service… “That Bible that you now have has blood on it,” Paul says. The room falls silent. “Someone sacrificed so you could have it,” he continues. “There are many men and women in Kenya who don’t know Jesus— not because they don’t care. They don’t know Jesus because of a language barrier. This is wrong!” God is asking us to do whatever we can. We can all ‘Run for the Bibleless’!” Source: http://www.wycliffe.net/articles?id=6084

A light to see by - The Nikyob - Work in Progress
The Nikyob translation co-ordinator reflects on the impact of God’s Word. There is a disconnection without the Bible being available in the Nikyob lan-guage. Over the years, lower church attendance has coincided with an increase in pornography, general immorality and crime… We need spiritual awareness.
