Kisanga Translation Project
12 March 2025
Kisanga (or Sanga) is a Bantu language spoken chiefly in some of the southern areas of the Democratic Republic of Congo. Estimates of Kisanga speakers vary, with numbers ranging from 400,000 to as many as 1.1 million.
Our reviser lives in the DRC and faces serious safety concerns due to the ongoing rebel fighting which is supported by Rwandan soldiers. In February, the escalating violence in the DRC resulted in the kidnapping and deaths of 70 Christians.
In 1991, we published a Kisanga Bible, and with some revisions, we would like to publish it again. While the work is slow, the Gospel according to John has recently been approved for publication.
How to pray for this project:
- For the safety of the reviser and his family who live in a very dangerous war zone in the DRC.
- For all Christians in the DRC, the salvation of the rebels and fighters, and peace to be restored to the country.
- For the publication and distribution of the Gospel according to John.
- For the revision work to continue on the whole Bible.
