Nearly 20 years ago, NewLife partnered with the Good News Center, India to help fund the construction and renovation of several Christian orphanages. Most recently, NewLife provided the primary funding for a new Assembly Hall that now serves 192 children with daily care and education. The facility also helps sustain GNC’s ministry by generating ongoing income through weekend rentals for weddings and community events.
Reaching 19 Million People with God’s Word
One of GNC’s greatest challenges was the lack of a Bible in the Sambalpuri language, spoken by 19 million people. With NewLife’s support, GNC launched a translation project, resulting in 2.2 million copies of the Gospel of Matthew and New Testaments printed and distributed in their heart language.
Work is now underway on a translation of the Old Testament and an audio New Testament for the 7 million who cannot read.
