Bible week opens, promotes collaboration

THE Solomon Islands Bible Society is hosting its annual Bible Week programme at the national museum, Point Cruz, aiming to strengthen partnerships among local churches and Christian ministries.

Held under the theme ‘God’s word is for everyone, Do what it says’, the week-long event began with Bible quizzes and reading classes in various translations, drawing participation from various church groups.

Bible Society’s Coordinator John Stott said the initiative aims to create unity among different churches. 

“This is so that we can collaborate in this work not only for the bible society but also for other churches in our Christian ministries.”

As the nation gears up for its 47th Independence celebrations amidst various ongoing social activities, Stott reminds the public not to lose sight of spiritual priorities.

“The Word of God is important to all people. When we see programmes like this carried out by churches or Christian ministries, we must come together and take part — because it’s about collaboration,” he said.

Highlighting the society’s mission to translate, produce and distribute Bibles, Stott shared that they are committed to supporting churches with resources.

“If your church is struggling to grow, we can provide resources to help your church grow,” he said.

Stott also shared that the Society is currently working on a Bible translation project for communities in Simbo, Western Province.

The Bible week programme will conclude tomorrow.
