Can Vision 2025 be accomplished in Nigeria?

 

 

When I started working in Nigeria, one major Bible translation organization mentioned that they weren't even considering Vision 2025 (all languages that need a translation of the Bible have translation started by 2025). This is totally understandable since the Vision 2025 goal seemed impossible in Nigeria. At that time the number of languages in Nigeria yet to start was close to 200 and no one thought there was capacity to start that many translation projects in the time frame. We are thankful that so much has changed since then. The estimated current number of languages still needing Bible translation to start is 111 - we hope and pray and are working with multiple partners towards seeing that number drop considerably by the end of 2023. (*the number of languages remaining is always subject to change) 

For those who like maps and want to see which countries have the most and least remaining Vision 2025 languages, click here. The map has loads of information including the fact that 81 countries have already achieved Vision 2025.  

Please keep praying for the remaining Vision 2025 languages and we'll keep you updated as we countdown to 2025.
