Help bring Bibles to people living with the ongoing impact of war and conflict in Ukraine and Armenia!
With the generous support of people like you, we aim to distribute 5,000 Bibles and New Testaments in seventy languages through chaplaincies in New Zealand this year!
Bible Societies are delivering programmes which seek to transform the lives of women and girls through the Word of God. Our focus is on the Bible Societies of Cameroon, Peru and India.
Around the world, many Bible Societies operate under challenging conditions, particularly in regions like North Africa and the Middle East. Our focus is on three such Bible Societies: The Bible Society in Iraq, the Bible Society of Morocco, and the Bible Society in Turkey.
In the Gulf States, Liberia, and Slovenia, Bible Societies are actively engaging migrant workers, new believers, and lay people with Scripture in meaningful ways. Through your support, we can help bring God’s Word to those who need it most.
Although Bible Society has been around since 1846, we became a group when Manna Christian Stores became part of the mission in 2017. This divine appointment saw two mission-hearted organisations, both rich in history join forces, interweaving their mission, passion, and purpose to become one. Together, we share a mission to help make the Bible accessible to everyone and encourage interaction with it.
The Big Little Bible app brings together 30 key stories from the Bible and is designed to help children discover that the Bible is one big, connected story about God and His plan to rescue His most precious creation – people.

When people get to know Jesus through God’s Word, lives change for good and that is why our mission is to help make the Bible accessible to everyone and to encourage interaction with it.

A new translation is a completely fresh translation into a language that already has Scripture. This is not based on an existing translation, but is a completely new translation, using source texts.
A revised translation updates a translation that already exists so the language is understandable to the community today.
A first translation is the first time that Scripture is made available in a language. For instance, a first Bible is the first time that language has received the full Bible. A first portion is sometimes the first time a language receives any Scripture at all, but it could also be the first time that it receives an additional portion of Scripture. For example, a language may already have the New Testament, but it then receives the Book of Ruth for the first time.
