Powerful testimony from the recent Ruth Women’s Retreat hosted by Wycliffe South Africa.

Bringing together 16 women for a weekend of rest, drama, art, and pampering, the retreat allowed participants to bring the story of Ruth into their own lives—finding hope, compassion, and true connection in a safe space.

God’s Word speaks every language. Watch Brother Nélio’s continuation to see what happens when the Gospel meets people right where they are!

In Part 2 of his powerful testimony, Brother Nélio shares how hearing the Gospel broadcast in his native Makhuwa language completely transformed his life. Through the translated Makhuwa scriptures and local radio outreach, God’s Word came alive in his heart.

In this episode of P.R.A.Y., we look at a song by David about patience, rescue, and trust in God.

Waiting on the Lord is never wasted time. Even when you feel stuck in a pit of waiting, God is actively working to set your feet on solid ground, steady your steps, and put a brand-new song of praise in your heart.

Keep holding on; your story doesn't end in the pit, but on firm ground with a joyful song!

Culture and scripture meet in a profound way when God's Word is translated into a people's heart language. The isiBhaca translation team is bringing incredible passion and dedication to this initiative, working tirelessly to ensure that amaBhaca can experience the Bible in the language that shapes their daily lives and identity.

During their recent work on the internalization of Genesis 3, the deep connection between culture and Bible translation became striking. Seeing how cultural context influences their interpretation—and how Scripture speaks directly into isiBhaca culture—highlights the power of localized translation. God's truth is never lost in translation; rather, it finds a unique home in every language.

Bridging scripture and community! The isiBhaca Bible translation workshop is progressing wonderfully, and we are deeply grateful for the incredible support already coming from local church leadership.

During the workshop, a local pastor shared a powerful reminder with our team: isiBhaca is included in the prophetic vision of Revelation 7:9—every nation, tribe, people, and language worshipping before the throne. God desires to speak directly to the Bhaca people in the language of their hearts!

Building solid, lasting relationships with local churches is essential to this mission. When translation teams and local leaders work hand in hand, each playing their unique role, we can truly bring the Word of God to life for isiBhaca communities.

Thank you to everyone walking this journey with us. Together, we are seeing scripture take root!

Heart language changes everything.

Princess Nolihle Chitha, a reviewer for the isiBhaca translation team, shared her joy as work on the isiBhaca Bible continues:

"I feel very happy because my dream is becoming a reality. We have always had a dream that one day isiBhaca will be heard on TV and radio; it's showing that everything is coming together."

Bringing the Bible into isiBhaca isn't just a project; it’s the fulfillment of a long-awaited vision for our translation team. From mother-tongue Scriptures to dream projections of hearing isiBhaca on public airwaves, history is being made.
Praise God for the progress, dedication, and bright future of the isiBhaca community!
