LWML—Lutheran Women in Mission

National Bible Week

And how from childhood you have been acquainted with the sacred writings, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus (2 Timothy 3:15).

As a young girl, I remember spending the night with my grandparents and listening to them read a chapter from the Bible every evening after supper — a great example of the importance of God’s Word in their daily lives. It was difficult for me to understand as they read the Bible in German, and I only understood English.

This week we observe National Bible Week. The LWML has Bible studies in many different languages — including German. Check out all the multi-language resources on our webpage. We have resources in German, Spanish, Ukraine, and more. Share them with people you know that speak those languages.

Another way to observe this week is starting to read the Bible in a year. In our LWML Shop, there is a Bible Reading Plan. Five sets are included in the packet. Use one and invite others to join you on your journey to daily be in God’s Word — no matter what language you use.
