Central Bible Church ×
Seed CompanyCentral Bible Church is partnering with Seed Company to translate God's Word into the heart language of several unreached people groups.
More than a billion people don’t have access to the Bible in their language.
In partnership with Seed Company, we're asking God to use the generosity of Central Bible Church members to support as many Bible translation projects as possible during a focused season of prayer, giving, and dependence. Each project is geared toward a people group with little to no access to Scripture in their heart language.
Your gift goes twice as far.
A foundation aligned with Central Bible Church's mission to reach the unreached has committed a $1 million matching gift. Every dollar you give towards this campaign will be matched, dollar for dollar, up to $1 million—doubling the impact of your generosity.
These projects will progressively expand our collective impact by unlocking new milestones in the translation process for unreached people groups. Milestones include First Scripture engagements-which are projects that provide the first verse or Scripture passage in the language of an unreached people group-completed New Testaments, and completed full Bibles.
This is our chance to respond—to pray, seek the Lord, and give as he leads.
Let’s translate the Bible together!
