Why are we riding?

Of the 415 Australian Indigenous languages and dialects identified on the Bible Society Australia’s Translation Roadmap only one has a completed Bible available – the Kriol Bible. This stark reality underscores the pressing need for more translation work to ensure Indigenous communities across Australia can access Scripture in their heart languages.

The importance of this work extends beyond spiritual considerations. Bible translation serves as a powerful tool for language preservation and cultural identity. With many Indigenous languages at risk of extinction, translating the Bible provides a means to document, revitalize, and maintain these unique linguistic heritages. It also affirms the value of Indigenous cultures, hearing God’s word in your heart language conveys the message that ‘God loves my people too’.

Will you help us make the Bible accessible to all Australians?
