Asia (MNN) ― Wycliffe Associates reports a major setback for a team working (in a sensitive area) on an Asian Bible video.

The computer where they were storing the Old Testament portion of the script just 'crashed', delaying the project's deadline.

The video project they're working on gives an overview of the whole Bible.  Their original deadline for the Old Testament scripts was the end of this month.  However, they're now faced with trying to figure out if all the work is lost, or if some part of the project is salvageable.

Wycliffe Associates is a ministry supporting the work of Bible translation around the world.  AT this point, there are more than 1,000 translators currently working on over 300 Bible translation projects in Asia.

There's still a long way to go to reach the Vision 2025 goal of starting translations for the remaining 903 languages in this area by the year 2025.

Please pray for protection over both the people and the equipment in this project. Pray too, that this Bible video will soon be available to the speakers of this language.
