January Focal Point

A New Leader for the Bible Translation Movement 

Rev. Linus Otronyi, recently appointed as Lutheran Bible
Translators’ Regional Director
for West Africa, spent the past few months traveling to connect with leaders from the programs he now oversees. This significant transition is nurtured by the steadfast support of his predecessor, Rev. David Federwitz, whose deep-rooted relationships and unwavering commitment have paved
the way for a seamless handover. Rev. Federwitz’s introductions to key partners have been instrumental in ensuring that the bonds of trust and collaboration remain strong. His continued availability as a mentor and guide reflects a dedication to the mission’s success.

Rev. Linus Otronyi finds profound joy in sharing his calling, expressing, “Anytime somebody asks me, ‘what do you do?’, it gives me an opportunity to talk about what I do and how they can pray for me. So, that gives me joy.”


In this season of change and growth, your prayers are invaluable. Please lift up Rev. Linus asking for divine wisdom and strength to guide him as he leads Bible translation efforts across West Africa, bringing the light of Scripture to many hearts.

Hope, Life, and
Transformation

Over 3,500 communities are waiting for the Word of God in the language they understand best. Join the mission and equip local leaders for translation.
