ICC Note: Wycliffe Associates is going to starting 69 new Bible translations in one of the world’s most dangerous countries, the Democratic Republic of Congo. They hope and believe that these translations will help resolve some of the tribal issues present in this war-torn country.

04/05/2018 DRC (Christian Post) – One of the leading Bible translation organizations in the world has said that it will be launching projects in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, one of the most dangerous nations in the world where people have been subjected to shocking forms of violence.

“It grabs at my throat to think about what the people have gone through in the DRC,” said Bruce Smith, president and CEO of Wycliffe Associates, in a statement on Monday.

“Generations of tribal violence … people hunted like animals … torture, mutilation, kidnapping, executions … fear and anger and utter, total despair that anything can ever be different.”

Wycliffe Associates is getting ready to help translate the Bible into 69 new languages in the DRC, using its pioneering Mobilized Assistance Supporting Translation method.
