UZBEKISTAN BIBLE PROJECT

GOD'S WORD ISN'T MEANT TO FEEL DISTANT OR FOREIGN, ITS MEANT TO SPEAK PERSONALLY, BUT FOR MILLIONS OF UZBEKS, THAT CAN ONLY HAPPEN ONCE THE BIBLE IS AVAILABLE IN THEIR OWN LANGUAGE.


ILLUMINATIONS IS AN ALLIANCE OF BIBLE TRANSLATION AND RESOURCE PARTNERS WORKING TOGETHER TO MAKE GOD'S WORD ACCESSIBLE TO ALL PEOPLE BY 2033. OF THE 7000+ SPOKEN LANGUAGES IN THE WORLD, OVER 3000 OF THEM HAVE LITTLE TO NO SCRIPTURE. 


OUR CHURCH HAS PARTNERED WITH ILLUMINATIONS TO TRANSLATE THE BIBLE FOR UZBEKISTAN. CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT MANY HAVE NEVER EVEN HELD A BIBLE OR HEARD GOD'S PROMISES CLEARLY SPOKEN IN WORDS THEY FULLY UNDERSTAND. 


WE GENUINELY BELIEVE TRANSLATING THE BIBLE WILL GIVE THEM ACCESS TO TRUTH, HOPE, AND ULTIMATELY, ETERNAL LIFE. WE WANT TO HELP A NATION UNDERSTAND THAT JESUS LOVES THEM AND HIS WORD IS FOR THEM, JUST AS IT IS FOR US. 

REPUBLIC OF UZBEKISTAN

UZBEKISTAN IS A LANDLOCKED COUNTRY IN CENTRAL ASIA, DIRECTLY NORTH OF AFGHANISTAN, AND BROKE AWAY FROM THE SOVIET UNION IN 1991 TO BECOME THEIR OWN NATION. IT HAS THE LARGEST POPULATION IN CENTRAL ASIA WITH OVER 37 MILLION PEOPLE. 


ABOUT 85% OF THE NATION ARE UZBEKS WHO SPEAK NORTHERN UZBEK. AS OF 2020, 95% OF THE PEOPLE IDENTIFIED WITH ISLAM, AND ONLY 1% WITH CHRISTIANITY. WE HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO HELP FINANCE A COMPLETE BIBLE TRANSLATION IN UZBEK, WHICH HAS THE POTENTIAL TO REACH OVER 29 MILLION PEOPLE THERE, PLUS OTHERS IN ASIA WHO SPEAK THE LANGUAGE.

you can make a difference

CREATING A BIBLE TRANSLATION IN A NEW LANGUAGE TAKES TIME, DEDICATION, AND MONEY. THE ENTIRE PROJECT WILL COST ABOUT $726,000.
