Wycliffe Bible Translators

Wycliffe recognizes at least 7000 languages of which there are more than 1600 languages that do not have a single word of scripture in a language they can clearly understand. That number represents up to 160 million people.

Wycliffe works in partnership with local communities and believers in order to help them identify their Bible translation needs and achieve their goals. Depending on the needs, Wycliffe may also assist with literacy, language documentation, Scripture use and more. It is our privilege to help support Wycliffe’s mission through two missionaries from Liberty Corner, NJ. Since they are working in a hostile-to-Christian location their names and location will not be shared at this time.

Brazil is believed to have the highest use of crack in the world. The great majority of the ladies who come to the House of Hope are addicted to this deadly drug. The Alencar’s passion is to reach souls with the amazing message of God’s love that will transform lives.

Please put House of Hope on your prayer list,…..Paulo and Janis Alencar.

War Zone

Enemy soldiers over ran and now occupy the Christian university of our sister church in this war zone.  The pastor and congregation struggle  to supply spiritual and , as feasible, physical food to both Christians and non-Christians in their congregation and community. They have chosen to remain on their mission field, but the military battles in that region could necessitate a change at any time. We pray for them, are encouraged by their courage,  and count it a privilege to support, as feasible, their Christian work.
