The International Bible Society and Send the Light are exploring a new project which will see them collaborate to bring the Bible to millions who have so far, been unable to receive it.
For many years, the International Bible Society (IBS) and Send The Light (STL) have served Christians around the globe. At the centre of their work has been the Bible. However, many people in the world are still not able to access copies of the Bible. In India and China alone, it is estimated that around 200 million new Christians are eager to read God's word and this number increases each day.
Both STL and IBS have vast experience in reaching new people with the Bible, with STL specialising in retail and distribution, and IBS in Bible translation and sales. From October this year, a working party with representatives from both STL and IBS will discuss a possible collaboration between the two organisations.
STL is the largest Christian distributor of religious product in the world, with offices in the UK, United States and India. Its multi-channel retail division Wesley Owen has 45 stores in the UK and 20 in India. Its STL Distribution division has five distribution centres spread across three continents.
