Wycliffe Bible Translators is a dynamic organisation with a big vision – a world where everyone can know Jesus through the Bible. 1 in 5 people worldwide still don’t have a Bible in their language. That’s 1.5 billion people who are still waiting. We serve local partners worldwide as they bring God’s word to their communities in the language which speaks to them best.

Established in 1953, we continue to work urgently for the long-term. As a result, today more people than ever before have access to Scripture in their language.
