Uganda Projects

In Uganda, Wycliffe members are serving six languages, with two more to be added soon. These languages comprise more than 1.3 million speakers. The Bible Society of Uganda is serving six languages as well. What a potential there is for changed lives! The personnel involved in these projects are qualified nationals who are full of vision as to what can happen when the Bible is translated into their languages.
