Looking at a child is like looking into the future.
If the child is healthy and happy, surrounded by family, exploring the world and learning new things, our optimism for a bright future increases.
But if the child is gaunt and dirty, alone and afraid, the future looks bleak.
We are often willing to go to great lengths to improve the physical welfare of a child because we know that it can change the course of his or her entire life.
Wycliffe Associates serves Bibleless people. Sadness, hopelessness, and grief surround people without God’s life-changing Word.
There is a sense that time is running out for the aged, that the scars of sin are etched deeply into their hearts and are consuming their lives. Getting God’s Word to the oldest generation is urgent.
It is their last hope to move from suffering to salvation.
But for the children, Bible translation has the power to completely transform their lives. We understand the implications for eternal life, but with our own eyes we also see the evidence of the impact in their lives here and now.
Our stewardship of time and treasure is making a personal impact in lives every day, giving kids and those like them hope for this lifetime and for eternity!
