SITBLP Workshop


Lots is always going on at SITAG ! In an SIBTLP (Solomon Island Bible Translation and Literacy Partnership) workshop, almost twenty independent translators are meeting with a translation consultant this week to finalize the dialogue of the story of Abraham.

The words will be paired with graphic art and printed in an effort to get parts of the scripture into people's hands before the entire Bible is translated.


We even ran into our old friend, Reverend Bea (on the right), whom we met for the first time on our trip to Munda! This is the third week in a row that SIBTLP has held a workshop here at SITAG. We are so thankful for the men and women who are willing to leave their families and come to receive training.

Becoming more aware of how much we take for granted...even the regular things like being able to wash clothes in a machine that is dependable, let alone having several translations of the Bible...prayers for these who are in training to do the translation with you all.
