After 2 miles take a RIGHT onto Spring Creek Road

It's a dirt road, very rough and bumpy

Descend a steep hill not marked by any sign

JAARS Mission

Through partnerships worldwide, JAARS provides quality technical support services and resources to speed Bible translation for all people.

About JAARS

As part of Wycliffe Bible Translators’ family of organizations, JAARS desires to see the Bible translated for all the world’s people groups that need a translation. JAARS serves Wycliffe Bible Translators and related organizations worldwide by providing transportation by air, land or sea; through computing and information technology; media in local languages; and other vital services. Training, coordination and operational support for these services are located at the JAARS Center. The center also provides conference facilities and office space for Wycliffe and other Bible translation partners. William Cameron Townsend founded Wycliffe Bible Translators in 1934. As the organization grew, Townsend saw the need for airplanes and radio to reach remote areas, to provide safe access to language groups. JAARS was formed in Peru in 1948 and moved to Waxhaw, North Carolina in 1961. Jim Akovenko has been president of JAARS since November 1996.

The Challenge

There are 6,912 known languages in the world. The 1,415 languages Wycliffe personnel work in represent 93 countries. They have helped to translate the New Testament into 721 languages which are spoken by 80 million people. In many languages Wycliffe translators have helped translate the entire Bible. However, there are still 2,251 additional language groups representing 193 million people needing Scripture translation programs. JAARS, along with its partners, embraces the vision that by the year 2025 a Bible translation project will be in progress for every people group that needs one.
