Dawro, Gamo and Gofa New Testaments!

Posted On: 01/06/2012 | Posted By: TWFTW

Jud Jusell and Teri Sheffield of TWFTW USA holding copies of the newly-published New Testaments in Dawro, Gamo and Gofa.

“Happy are those who… find joy in obeying the Word of the Lord, and they study it day and night” (Psalms 1.2)

November 2011 was a joyous month for three nations in Ethiopia. The New Testament was published in the languages of the Dawro, Gamo and Gofa people!

This was a joint project between The Word for the World and The Seed Company. The translators were all members of the Dawro, Gamo and Gofa nations, who were translating into their own language. They were trained in The Word for the World’s training program, and were assisted by consultants from both organizations.

Well done The Word for the World and the Seed Company! Beyond its spiritual goal, there is no doubt that your job will have a wider socio-cultural implication to the communities.
