Praise God that the ‘Do Impossible’ Conference was successfully held in Hermanus, South Africa, this summer, as TWFTW leadership gathered for a time of collaboration, fellowship, and strategic planning. Before the event started leaders had prayed specifically for the shuttle drivers, hotel staff, restaurant workers etc, asking God to help them be faithful witnesses of Jesus to them.
God answered those prayers - one of the shuttle drivers became a Christian, while another decided to return to church!

Open Doors International’s annual World Watch List identifies North Korea as the country where Christians are most persecuted on earth. Owning a Bible in North Korea is a severe political crime, often resulting in arrest, torture and life imprisonment in one of their notorious labour camps - or ex*****on. Their relatives are also often subject to cruel retribution, with reports of children as young as two being arrested because their parents were found with a Bible.

Yet despite the intense persecution, there has been growing demand for Bibles over the last decade. Find out more about the fearlessness of modern-day Bible smugglers:

We are so thankful to God that in recent years our work has grown steadily and accelerated to 452 projects. This is because of the support we receive from people like you, who want every person on earth to have access to God’s Word in their own language.
Before us stands a threshold: 493 more communities are seeking the transformative power of Scripture. Can you help us reach these people?

Following on from the 10,000 Bibles that the UK office supplied to TWFTW in Malawi, we heard recently that the Sena folks in the south decided to bless some of the Sena churches just across the border in Mozambique with 360 Sena Bibles. This was their note of thanks:

“The Pentecostal Church, ‘Renascendo Para Cristo’ in Mozambique would like to express our sincere and heartfelt gratitude for the support you have given us through the donation of Bibles in the Sena language. We have received this gift as a great blessing from God, as these Bibles will play an important role in the spiritual growth, evangelism, and strengthening of faith among our members, with more lives may be transformed through the power of God’s Word – thank you”.

Last month, we reported on some of the hardships that our teams in a SE Asian country were facing. The National Director has recently written the following as an update, with some words of thanks to those who have prayed for them during this time:

“Dear Friends, Partners, and Prayer Supporters. Grace and peace to you in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. As we reflect on the past three months, our hearts are filled with gratitude for God's unfailing faithfulness. Despite many challenges, the Lord has continued to sustain our ministry, strengthen our team, and open doors for His Word to advance among the Bibleless people groups of this country in SE Asia. This quarter has been marked by seasons of sorrow. Some of our translation projects experienced the heartbreaking loss of a respected community leader whose wisdom and leadership had greatly contributed to the work. His passing has created significant challenges for those projects, and we ask you to remember the affected communities as they seek God's guidance in identifying and preparing new leaders to continue the ministry.

Our team has also suffered a tremendous loss with the passing of our beloved IT Manager. His faithful service, technical expertise, and passion for Bible translation made a lasting impact on our ministry. While we deeply mourn his absence, we are profoundly grateful for the many messages of comfort, prayers, and encouragement we have received. I extend my heartfelt gratitude to every church, ministry, and individual who has supported this ministry through prayer and/or financial partnership. Your love and support have strengthened us during this difficult season, and has enabled us to continue serving, despite the many challenges we face; thank you”.

This is what celebration sounds like! 🎉🙌🏼

A homemade video of more Sena Bibles being delivered two weeks ago in southern Malawi has been shared with us. Doesn’t the singing just lift your heart?

Big news from Finland! We thank God for an opportunity to broadcast, free of charge, on Radio Patmos this summer. Pray for this ten-part radio series which is currently running, with repeats in the autumn. This is a great opportunity to highlight TWFTW's ministry and impact a wider audience in that country.
