Bibles for Tokelau

On the 18th of July 2009 the Dayspring Ministries yacht (Sea Hawk) will arrive in Tokelau with 500 newly printed New Testaments onboard.

Seahawk’s first adventure on the mission trail will be working in conjunction with the Bible Society to deliver the first ever native translation of the New Testament, to the tiny island nation of Tokelau. This exciting event is taking place 35 years after it was first discussed in 1974.

The delivery on the New Testament has been eagerly awaited by the Tokelau people for many decades. Because there was previously no Tokelau language bible, Tokelau people have always used a Samoan bible. (The Samoan language is related, but different.)

As you can imagine a lot of work is gone into preparing the yacht for this event. Please keep us in your prayers.
