Charity to Fund Bible Project for Mongolian Church

By Church News

The Aid for the Church in Need (ACN) Korea has pledged US$100,000 (around 137.5 million Korean won) for the translation and publication of the Bible, Catholic Peace Broadcasting Corporation (CPBC) of Korea reported.The Mongolian Catholic community has some 1,400 members who access the scripture through a translated Protestant version, which has 66 books in contrast to the 73 books of the Catholic Bible.

“Mongolian Christians have faced difficulties in evangelizing because the only Bible available to them is the Protestant Bible,” said Cardinal Giorgio Marengo of Ulaanbaatar.

The publication of the revised Mongolian versions of the entire Catholic Bible is planned between 2027 and 2028, the prelate added.

“It is a significant project that will fill the ‘faith gap’ that has existed in the Mongolian Church for a long time,” Marengo added.

ACN Korea said it plans to fund the Bible translation project from 2024 to 2027.
