Dear friend, 

I am reaching out to you today with a particularly urgent concern.

A staggering number of people worldwide have yet to hear God's Word. They live in locations where the Bible is either completely unavailable in their language or in severe shortage. The issue is more than a lack of physical Bibles; it affects lives and eternities.

We believe in the gospel's transformative power for bringing salvation, but how can it transform if people cannot read or hear it in their language? Some languages have yet to receive a single verse of scripture, leaving these communities in spiritual darkness.

At IMB, we've tasked ourselves with the enormous, yet urgent mission of providing Bibles and Scripture portions to these unreached groups.

That's why I'm emailing you now. I urgently need your support to provide MORE Bibles and put MORE missionaries in the field to teach the Word of God.

Your gift is much more than a book. It's the gift of life — eternal life. It's each lost soul encountered by God's grace, a community transformed, a language lit by the Scripture's light for the first time.

Will you provide someone with a Bible in their language today?

Here's the link where you can give: https://www.imb.org/generosity/gods-word-for-the-nations/

Thank you for your kind consideration. Your support can make a significant difference as we strive to bring God's Word to those who are yet to hear it.

Yours in Christ,
