From this small beginning came Wycliffe Bible Translators, which recruits and sends Bible translators, literacy specialists, and others to work among the world's Bibleless people groups. The Bible is God's message for people everywhere. The message of the Bible is evangelistic and is the basis for church planting and church growth. The most effective means of communication is the mother tongue. For a church to be truly indigenous, it must have the Bible in its mother tongue.
Bible translation is the task of the whole church, and everyone can have a part.
WBT works in partnership with national Bible translation organizations, churches, governments, universities, other missions, communities, and individual believers, to translate the Bible, develop mother tongue literacy programs so that people can read the printed Scriptures, and encourage local bodies of believers. Hearing the Word in Cams is a new encounter with Christ, because it speaks so clearly.
