Mbugwe Christians Welcome Bible Translation

Written by Julia L.

A translation couple were warmly welcomed by the Mbugwe people, especially by the Church of God, who had been asking for years for a translation project to begin in the Mbugwe language.

Mbugwe "Participatory Approach"

Written by Julia L.

During 2009, the Mbugwe team worked together with a group of Mbugwe in a series of ‘workshops' to develop an Mbugwe alphabet. We were fortunate to find a group of 13 Mbugwe from various villages and church denominations who worked hard with us to find the best letters and signs to represent the sounds of their language.
