Churches countrywide have been urged to support the translation of the Bible into lesser-known languages, a project spearheaded by the Bible Translation and Literacy (BTL) organisation.
During the 5th edition of the "Run for The Bibleless" event held at Mama Ngina Waterfront in Mombasa, BTL's Board Chair, Kendi Ogamba, highlighted the ongoing need for communities to access the scriptures in their native languages.
Ogamba emphasised the high costs associated with Bible translation and urged the Church to contribute to this cause through the charity walk "Run For The Bibleless". "We shall continue with the 'Run For The Bible' until all communities receive the scriptures in their own language," she said.
Founded in 1981, BTL is a Christian-based organisation dedicated to Bible translation and sustainable literacy development programmes for small language groups in Kenya and beyond.
