Bring Bibles to New Zealanders
THE CAUSE
Christianity in New Zealand is declining, but something remarkable is happening. According to the Faith and Belief in New Zealand Report, only 37% of New Zealanders identify as Christians today—down from 49% in 2006. Yet, despite this, demand for Bibles has increased by 34%. More people than ever are searching for God’s Word!
With your support, we can reach even more people in New Zealand, sharing the hope and promise of Jesus with those who need it most.
THE IMPACT
By making a gift today, you will help us:
- Distribute 5,000 Bibles and New Testaments in seventy languages through chaplaincies in New Zealand.
- Print and share 75,000 copies of The Very First Easter children’s booklet.
- Create Faith Journey, a new resource to help families explore the Bible together.
- Produce the first complete Māori Audio Bible, making Scripture accessible to more people
Last year, we launched a new partnership with Te Wānanga Ihorangi, a faith-based Māori language school in Auckland. The partnership aims to produce a complete Māori Audio Bible, a project that we believe will make a significant impact in giving Māori people greater access to the Bible in their heart language. This is an initiative we can all be proud of and feel connected to.
Christian Broadcasting Association has also joined us in this partnership, supporting this initiative. It is an opportunity to increase the availability of Scripture to Māori and encourage engagement with it, helping to drive the ongoing revitalisation of the Māori language and the reach of Te Paipera Tapu (The Holy Bible).
Your support today can help support this project and bring even more New Zealanders the hope of the Bible!
