EBT's Background


"I am sure you will agree that for new Christians to become strong spiritually and for the church to be stable and fulfill its destiny, the Word of God must be available in the mother tongue - the language of the heart.

This is why God has called Evangel Bible Translators into existence. We who honor the Holy Spirit and love what the Spirit of God is doing in the world today must become more involved. There are yet thousands who wait for their first copy of God's Word in their own language.

Evangel Bible Translators was founded in 1976 at the encouragement of "Uncle" Cameron Townsend, the revered founder of Wycliffe Bible Translators and is a member of the Forum of Bible Translation Agencies. Evangel Bible Translators has a strong commitment to giving the Word of God to language groups that have no Scriptures in their mother tongue."

--Rev. H. Syvelle Phillips, founder and president of Evangel Bible Translators
