Happy Birthday, Wordproject!! \ud83d\ude42<\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few days ago, someone wrote to me asking how he should introduce our work to a friend who is very interested, especially the audio Bibles. I suppose he wanted to know what church or denomination, what branch of Christianity, we were affiliated with or belong to. \u00a0
Many people do not realize that the answer to this question is stated online, in the Wordproject webpages. It is all explained in our Faith and Mission Statements present in all our websites, a sample of which you may find here: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

https:\/\/wordproject.org\/contact\/new\/mstate.htm<\/a>
Among other things, these statements say:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Wordproject is an open and royalty free webpage that aims to make the Word of God - the Bible - available to as many people as possible, through a means that is simple, up-to-date and cheap to reproduce and use.\", and\n(wp) aims 'To provide versions of the Bible in several languages. Versions: King James Version; Jo\u00e3o Ferreira de Almeida (Portuguese); Reina Valera (Spanish); Louis Segond (French); Union Version (Chinese); Riveduta (Italian), Hindi; Romanized Hindi; Russian, German, Swahili, Amharic, and many more...<\/em>\u201d\n\"Wordproject is a global outreach that uses the Internet as a means to fulfill the great commission of Jesus Christ laid in the Holy Bible, New Testament, Mark 16:15 - \"Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature<\/em>\".\n\nSee more here: \nhttps:\/\/wordproject.org\/contact\/new\/copyrights.htm<\/a> \nhttps:\/\/wordproject.org\/contact\/new\/state.htm<\/a>.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
This month, more precisely on April 12<\/strong>, Worproject celebrated 20 years of life. Thank God we survived our infancy and our teen years and we are now starting into adulthood. \ud83d\ude0a<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the Lord\u2019s help and so many people contributing to this project, we have accomplished quite a few things. Among them the recordings, in several languages, of the precious Word of Life, the Holy Scriptures of the Bible. We should never forget, nor doubt, the impact the Word has on the lives of many around the world. Not only as the Word of Salvation but also as the comfort, encouragement, strength and peace the Word brings to the hearts of those who seek, and in this case find, through our presence online, our Apps and the audio devices we make available. The many communications we receive from the field testify of this.
For example, just yesterday, we received a message from Mathias, the narrator of the Luganda Audio Bible, that said:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThank you so much for the work you do.
Thank you very much for not limiting the spread of the word of God with copyright.
From 3 a. m. I have been on the net and was surprised by the various sources that have used my narration and made apps! One even put it on YouTube as videos for each individual book<\/em>!!’ M<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Indeed, Mathias, the power of WP has been that it allows and even encourages others to use our resources, thus exponentially multiplies its outreach. We are thankful for that too!

Here are a few more reactions received this month, in this case concerning our Apps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Translated from Portuguese:\u00a0
Extraordin\u00e1rio e edificante!! Recomendo demais! Deus continue usando vcs. B\u00ean\u00e7\u00e3o demais para a minha vida e creio que de muitos. A palavra de Deus se renova a cada manh\u00e3. Viva e atual
Extraordinary and uplifting!! I highly recommend it! God continue to use you. Too much blessing for my life and I believe many. The word of God is renewed every morning. alive and current. ET<\/pre>\n\n\n\n

Maravillosa fuente de conocimiento la cual tienes la posibilidad de leer y o escuchar la palabra de Dios...
Wonderful source of knowledge which you have the possibility to read and or listen to the word of God... AF<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Translated from Portuguese\u00a0
Very, efficient, her strongest point and the possibility of listening offline you are to be congratulated may God continue to bless all the team that are involved in this beautiful and effective project may the peace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the consolations of the Holy Spirit be always with you.\u00a0 RC<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
We also receive requests which we do not know how and when we are able to fulfill. These give us the perspective of how much this baby still has to grow: \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n
 My name is AT I live in a poor community it is difficult, I just wanted to ask if you would like to donate about 50 Afrikaans bibles to my church please, my pastor will and our congregation will be so grateful, My address is xxxxx Street, Asla Park, xxxxx. \u00a0Thank you very much, may the Lord bless you. <\/em>AT<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
We are blessed to be part of this outreach and to have a team of workers and contributors that make this possible. If your name is not in here, make sure that it will be there soon:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
