Church Donates Record $1M for Bible Translations

09-07-2014

A church in Indiana has donated more than $1 million to fund new translations of the Bible.

According to Wycliffe Bible Translators, the Indianapolis church donation is the largest ever by a single congregation.

The donation came from College Park Church's yearly special offering held on the Sunday before Christmas.

College Park's global outreach pastor said there was no special effort to break a donation record and that "God did it."

The funds will be used to translate the Bible into seven languages used by more than a million people in Asia.
