We cannot do it alone.We should not do it alone.

We cannot do it alone.

∙ Over 1,700 languages still need Bible translation to begin.

∙ With 66 current projects, we are asking God to help us end 2016 with 72 language projects and end 2018 with 84.

∙ We are praying for 740 of the right new teammates by the end of 2018.

We should not do it alone.

∙ International teammates are often better received, learn languages better, rely more deeply on the Spirit, and may be more effective than North Americans.

∙ We need to be enriched by the diversity that our global teammates bring.

∙ The world—even the principalities and powers—needs the witness that is borne by a unified global church.
