The Need for Prayer

The Gungu people have had churches for many years and about 50% of the population would call themselves Christians. However, on any given Sunday only about 3% of people are in church. Even then most of the people that are churchgoers are weak in their faith.

Much Has Been Done

Three godly and dedicated Gungu men (James M, Moses B and Robert B) have been working on developing Scripture publications. Much of the book of Acts is now finished. This is exciting because it means that 27% of the New Testament will soon be finished. The script of the Jesus Film has also been translated and is awaiting funding.

Pray

1. For the Gungu Bible Translation Review Committee to continue in their vision and to work well together.
2. That the Gungu church will use the Gospel of Luke as well as other scripture that has been published to come to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ and grow in their faith.
3. For the translators, James M and Moses B, as they work on translating the New Testament to have God's wisdom and understanding.
4. For Robert B, a qualified teacher, who is the Gungu Literacy Coordinator/Trainer for school- and adult-based literacy. Pray that God would give him health and strength and equip him with the resources to do this immense task.
5. For more funds to support the Gungu Bible translation and literacy efforts.
