The Bible Society in Botswana recently completed the New Testament in Shekgalagari, a language spoken by more than 78,000 people. Until its completion, the people struggled to understand a 100-year-old translation in Setswana, the ‘official’ language of Botswana.
Ensuring the Bible for everyone in Botswana is a continuing work for the Bible Society there. There are other translations in the works, literacy classes taking place, and Bible distribution projects reaching all around the country.
After receiving her own copy of the Bible, one young woman expressed how very grateful she was that there are people out there who think about her and all those living in remote areas. She said that most of the time they feel forgotten because her village is so far to get to. The Bible Society staff were met with joyful, happy faces when they arrived there to distribute Bibles.
Your donation this month will help with Bible translation and distribution in Botswana.

What is Bible-a-Month Partnership?
Bible-a-Month is a partnership between Scottish Bible Society and people like you, who want to see everyone have access to the Bible in a language they understand, a form they can access, and at an affordable price, to aid genuine encounters with God.
Every year, we select twelve projects worldwide and support them in delivering Bibles and Bible-based resources to reach those who need and want them.
Just £5 per month can provide a Bible to someone around the world who needs it the most. The more you can give every month, the more Bibles we can share with the people who need It most.
When you join Bible-a-Month you will:
- Receive a beautiful calendar featuring information about our selected projects with details on how your gifts will enable their vital work
- Join us in praying each month for one of the twelve projects we are supporting this year
- Receive a thank you letter at the end of the year including updates from our selected projects
Share the Bible in partnership
Bible a Month is a great way to commit to sharing the Bible with people around the world every year. This can be done on your own, or as part of a church. For more information about partnering your church, contact our Donor Care team:
