Throughout the globe, “business as mission” companies are springing up in unprecedented numbers. These companies, spanning hundreds of professions and locations, are united by one driving force: glorifying God and ministering to their communities.

In the context of Bible translation, they can:

  • Provide more sustainable support services.
  • Allow access to regions where missionaries are not typically welcome.
  • Stimulate the local economy.
  • Create income for local churches and translation organizations.
  • Provide a sustainable way for local Christians to be involved in translation.

Unfortunately, many of these companies face the same prohibiting plight: lack of start-up capital.

By partnering with JAARS, you can help provide low-interest loans for these businesses—allowing them to quickly gain footing and begin impacting local translation work. Our Business as Mission team will also provide assistance, mentoring, prayer support and encouragement, maximizing businesses’ potential to succeed.

As a result, Bible translation can progress in the world’s least evangelized and least developed regions—strengthened by vital support from business as mission.
