Then, M. Paraliev, helped us to improve the Bulgarian text at<\/p>\n
https:\/\/www.wordproject.org\/bibles\/verses\/bulgarian\/index.htm<\/a><\/p>\n We made huge changes to our Portuguese BR (Brazil) page as the Bible text was completely updated to the ACF 1995, which is the version used by the narrator. The previous version, also ACF (Almeida Corrigida Fiel), but older, had some discrepancies or mismatches with the audio. Notice that the changes in these versions are merely in choice of words or updating certain terms, and by no means affect doctrinal fundamentals.<\/p>\n https:\/\/www.wordproject.org\/bibles\/po-BR\/40\/1.htm<\/a><\/p>\n As already mentioned by Donna, this month we ordered new Audio Bibles in China. Our order will be large this time and we have already received the first delivery. Meanwhile we have received encouraging emails from the field. From Africa we received the following letter – it explains the impact of our ministry better than we ever could:<\/p>\n Dear Friends at Wordproject,<\/p>\n Thank you for your hard work, I am really enjoying reaping the benefits!\u00a0 I am a missionary in Uganda, a country with poor education and over 40 dialects!\u00a0 I have been a missionary for over 7 years, and I am training pastors that live in rural villages.\u00a0 Of all the Bible study tools, curriculum, and programs to teach pastors, I have (not surprisingly) found that just using the Bible is the absolute BEST thing!<\/p>\n The pastors meet and we go through the Bible book by book, chapter by chapter, and I have seen a HUGE improvement in these men and church leaders!\u00a0 One of my greatest struggles was how long it took them to read through each chapter, out loud.\u00a0 I discovered that most of my pastors don’t read very well, even the most educated pastor struggles to read the Bible out loud.\u00a0 For me, it has taken up so much time.\u00a0 Although literacy is important, it’s not what I came to do, so I began to look for an audio Bible in Luganda or Lusoga.\u00a0 Praise the Lord, I found Wordproject!<\/p>\n Thank you for your work, I now have been downloading each book of the Bible and taking it out on a little speaker and playing it out loud for them.\u00a0 The understand it so much better!\u00a0 As the reader fluently reads each chapter, the pastors are able to hear it all in one setting, and quickly enough that they can study, think, and meditate on what God might be saying, instead of struggling to properly pronounce each word, they follow with their eyes in their own Bible and learn how to better read at the same time!<\/p>\n Thank you again for your ministry, it is currently helping over 40 pastors!<\/p>\n One request:\u00a0 Is it possible to get the whole Bible in one or two downloads so that I don’t have to download it chapter by chapter?\u00a0 I’ve finished downloading the New Testament, but we’re about to start on the Old, and (gulp!), the thought of sitting in front of the computer and downloading it chapter by chapter is a bit daunting.<\/p>\n Thank you, and God bless! Worship hall in Africa – sent by our friend in Mozambique –<\/p><\/div>\n Tamil pages have also been improved with several correction on the text made by Raj, our dear brother who is living in China. Besides working on an improved audio version of the Tamil Bible, already in the final phases, Raj is also helping us with audio devices production and contacts. He has a lot of experience in these fields. We are so thankful for his great help.<\/p>\n Expired Image!<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Jorge: This month we were able to improve some sections of the WP website with the help of some users who were so kind to send us improved translations in their respective languages.
