The sun sets on a gorgeous summer day over the village of Margau, Romania. Christians in this village are grateful to have a Bible to read, since they know what it is like to live without it. During the Cold War many Romanians risked imprisonment to smuggle, hide and share Bibles. And they haven’t forgotten. The small churches in this town, and other towns nearby, are pooling their resources to achieve something great. Together they support a missionary family to live in Ethiopia and are helping bring the Bible to speakers of the Shek/Maj languages. An incredible testimony to what can be achieved by working together. Read the full story.

This is the latest in an (ad hoc) series of blogs from other sources across Wycliffe, 'showcasing' the huge range of impact our work helps to bring about. As we start a new year, we hope it reminds and encourages you of the connections, sometimes clear and sometimes very fuzzy, between what we are doing and the lives of real peoples all over the world.
