JAARS Inc.

JAARS is a multidisciplinary team of problem-solvers who are committed to the belief—and the vision—that people’s lives and communities are transformed as they experience God’s Word in their own language.  We exist to make Bible translation and language development possible, especially in the most remote and difficult places on earth. We do that by enabling locally-appropriate and sustainable solutions in transportation, technology, media, and training.

We are a community of full-time missionaries, dedicated volunteers and even a few employees who work together to accomplish the Great Commission goal of providing Scripture to every people group on earth in the language they understand best – their heart language.  We do that by supporting Bible translation and language development partners globally, and by working with prayer and financial partners in the United States to help make a range of unique on-the-field solutions possible. Sometimes, our boots are on the ground (or in the air, or on the water).  Other times, we’re providing expertise, training, logistical support, research and development, project management or funding.  In all cases, we’re working hand-in-hand with global field partners to identify, design, test, refine and implement solutions that can be sustained going forward.

You can be a part of creating sustainable solutions that lead to transformation: Participating on one of the teams, sponsoring an individual or a team, or underwriting a race event.  You can also check us out at jaars.org. 

Prayer, service, advocacy, funding – all are critical, and all are blessed.  We invite you to listen to your heart and click here to explore how God might lead you to help make life transformation through Bible translation possible!
