San Pedro of Mexico

Recently many San Pedro people witnessed the joyous celebration of a neighboring group when they dedicated their New Testament. Praise God the 11,000 San Pedro people aren’t far behind in celebrating their own!

In 2005 Benito, who speaks San Pedro, took the initiative to translate the New Testament, with plans to complete it by 2012. And what a great job he is doing! The Bible Society reports that his translation is “very high quality” and Benito is “exceptionally conscientious and thorough.”

  • Praise God! Benito and a few San Pedro speakers successfully helped record the “JESUS” film in their language.

  • Pray for wisdom as Benito translates Genesis while he waits for the consultant’s corrections to his draft of the entire New Testament.

  • Pray God’s blessing on literacy programs so people are ready to read the New Testament once it’s published.
