Projects

In each translation project for a language community, OneBook uses the following activities as its key priorities: Bible translation, linguistics, literacy, Scripture engagement, capacity building, and holistic outreach.

Cameroon

Despite threats and social rejection, believers’ all-night prayer meetings keep faith strong. The community faces spiritual oppression and urgently needs God’s Word in their heart language.

Ring Road Cluster

After years of civil conflict, people in the Ring Road Cluster, now more than ever, need the hope found in God's Word. They watch God’s Word steady minds and hearts in neighbouring communities, and long to access this same hope in their own mother tongue.

Access to the Gospel grows steadily as translated Scripture in print and audio reaches three rural communities – even broadcast on local radio.

Church leaders and their congregations from the rainforest community dream of fresh Scripture in the heart language with audio recordings for their people. The vision: God’s Word enabling spiritual change!

For decades, two poverty-stricken Mfumte communities were excluded from every development scheme. Today, life-changing literacy skills are spreading. Dedicated teams translate mother-tongue Scripture for a growing church.

Dedicated local pastors long for foundational Old Testament Scripture to strengthen their remote churches. Church leaders have hand-picked a team for extensive training.

Kenya

Sengwer Cherangany

These forest dwellers face the loss of their right to hunt. Church leaders urged for mother-tongue Scripture and indigenous advocacy. “Bible translation is much more than just getting our rights. It gives eternal life!”

New life is in the wind for these rural farmers seeking freedom from spiritual fear and confusion—anticipation for the “JESUS” Film to reach all villages is high and the first books of Bible in the mother tongue are eagerly being unpacked and read.

South Asia

New Testament

Years of mistreatment, spiritual bondage and economic decline have left their scars. Courageous openness to change is allowing hope to grow.

This project encourages Christians in remote villages to seek Scripture’s wisdom in their daily lives. Gurija speakers can now access freshly-translated verses daily, while drafts of key Old Testament books move steadily forward.

A small growing church with a huge commitment to grow in their faith through more mother-tongue Scripture and to overcome language barriers. The project team aims to provide Old Testament portions and Psalms to sing and to see children succeed in their education.

Forced eviction and resettlement, loss of home, livelihood and dignity—all led to squalor, despair, and alcohol issues. Gaba people are being equipped to make a difference in their community through medical aid, oral Bible stories, and Scripture in the mother-tongue.

Kassin churchgoers are committed to making the New Testament accessible to those who never learned to read and would like to listen to an audio recording.

Completion of the longed-for New Testament is in reach! Families damaged through alcohol and despair now taste hope and healing.

The hope of the New Testament is coming for the few believers in this marginalized language community who live in villages with air thickened by emissions from nearby industry.

Hope is scarce when scratching out a living on the fringe. Love arrived in the form of an urgently needed water well, then came winter care kits, hygiene awareness campaigns, and help with children’s homework.

Highland Asia

Despite frequent landslides, isolation, and opposition, the small yet growing Mehra church is eager for more: “Please help us have the entire ‘holy book’!”

People in these remote mountain villages hunger for the Old Testament to sustain their faith. The New Testament has been treasured and widely used in small churches and home Bible studies since 2017.
