Copying by Hand
Copying by Hand

Shar* is a church leader in Rokirro, Sudan. He has only one Bible available for use by his entire congregation. “People are asking for Bible, but I don’t have Bible to give to them,” he shares.
A member of their gathering is a secondary school teacher. He has been coming and borrowing the Bible to copy by hand.

He has started in Genesis and to date has copied all the way to the book of Judges.
He copies as much as he can and then goes home to study and comes back again to copy some more.
“This is how people are lacking the hard copy of the Word of God,” voices our global partner, Paul*. “When I told him (Shar) that I brought some Bibles and some SD cards and that he can take some to give to his people, Shar was so happy!”
With your help, we recently were able to support Paul and his disciples in purchasing the physical Bibles and digital Bibles loaded on SD cards that he mentions above.
Below are a few photos of these as well as a thank you message from Paul.
Join us in praying for these new believers and for more copies of God’s Word to share with them. After praying, post a comment and join others in praying for the advancement of the Gospel.
