Mbandja OT
The Mbandja people live in the northwestern corner of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), formerly known as Zaire. The New Testament was completed in 1996. Because the Mbandja way of life corresponds very closely to that of the Old Testament, church leaders feel that the stories will minister to the people in a unique way to clarify their understanding of God. The team has used a computer program called CARLA (Computer Assisted Related Language Adaptation) to help them produce a reference draft of the Old Testament based on the completed translation in a related language.
