It all started in 1934 with a vision to see people flourishing in community using the languages they value most. 90 years later, we reflect with gratitude on the partnerships we've made with communities around the globe and the flourishing we've seen through language development, education, and engagement with Scripture! #90YearsOfSIL

We're excited to celebrate the recent completion of Bibles in several languages, now proudly added to the shelves of the world's 7,000+ languages at the Museum of the Bible! 🎉 The exhibit features displays of both completed and ongoing Bible translations, with empty spaces highlighting the languages still without a Bible. After many years of dreaming, two translation consultants traveled from their home countries to Washington D.C. for this special occasion. We're truly grateful to have been part of their incredible journey and to contribute to their translation efforts.
