Expatriate missionaries began translating the Suena New Testament in the 1970s. The church in Papua New Guinea (PNG) uses their New Testament regularly, but they hunger for more. The Zaka Lutheran Church Circuit in the Morobe province has appointed a local group to begin work on the Old Testament. But they need support. 

Capacity building provides technical training (in translation and technology), a building for translation workshops, investment in income-generating opportunities (e.g., renting boats), and funding for expenses faced by leaders who must travel for training.

Your support through prayers and financial gifts will expedite the program in PNG, equip and supply local partners for sustainability, and put the full Word of God in the hands of the Suena-speaking community in this generation.
