the 9 {continued}

Today we continue looking at the 9 languages we will be serving in Tanzania.

Zinza - 138,000 people


The Zinza people received a copy of Genesis "the Book of the Beginning" in their own language and said, "Reading this book is not only sweet to my ears, but adds to my understanding!"


Zanaki - 100,000 people
The Zanaki people are so thankful to have the Bible translated into their language because the Swahili words, "aren't deep words to us, they don't go inside us like Zanaki words do."

We don't have any stories for the Jita, Ngoreme, Kabwa, and Kwaya peoples.  That's why we're looking forward to meeting these people and learning their stories.  Pray for these 9 people groups.
