Where the Mission Takes Us
Bible Without Pages is about more than the places we visit. It is about the people who live in communities where access to God's Word can be limited and the opportunities God provides to bring Scripture within their reach.
From the experiences that first placed this burden on my heart to the hands-on work taking place today, each location has played a part in shaping this mission.
As we continue to reach new communities, our desire remains to put physical audio bibles into the hands of people who might otherwise have little opportunity to hear God's Word for themselves.
Haiti and Kenya: Where the Burden Began
Long before the first audio bible was placed into someone's hands, God was using my experiences in Haiti and Kenya to help me recognize the need for another way to share His Word.
In rural Haiti and remote communities in Kenya, I saw people who had little access to printed Bibles. Some could not read, while others had few opportunities to hear God's Word in a language they understood. In Kenya, I witnessed people walking miles and gathering together for hours just to hear Scripture.
Those experiences stayed with me. They helped shape my desire to find a practical way to bring God's Word to people who might otherwise have little opportunity to hear it.
Haiti and Kenya will always hold an important place in the story of Bible Without Pages. They were where I first began to understand the need, and where the desire to do something about it took root.
Greece: The Mission Takes Shape
In early 2025, Greece became an important turning point for Bible Without Pages. What had begun as a desire to reach people with limited access to Scripture was becoming a hands-on ministry, with physical audio bible gifts being prepared for distribution.
Each player was loaded with Scripture and packaged with the accessories needed to make it ready to use. Seeing these gifts come together was a meaningful step in turning the vision into something tangible that could be placed directly into someone's hands.
Those first preparations in Greece helped lay the groundwork for the outreach that continues today, opening the way for the mission to reach people in other places.

Albania: The Mission Continues
Today, Bible Without Pages continues its work in Vlorë, Albania. Much of the hands-on preparation takes place here, where audio bible players are loaded with Scripture and equipped with chargers and earbuds so they are ready for distribution.
Each gift is assembled with care, with the hope that it will give someone the opportunity to hear God's Word in a language they understand.
Being here also provides opportunities to build relationships with local churches, connect with people in the community, and discover new ways to share the message of Scripture.
Albania has become an important part of this journey, but the need extends far beyond its borders. There are still people and communities around the world waiting for the opportunity to hear God's Word.

Beyond the Places We've Been
Haiti, Kenya, Greece, and Albania are all part of the story of Bible Without Pages. Each place represents an experience, an opportunity, and another step in the work of bringing God's Word to people who might otherwise have limited access to Scripture.
But the need extends far beyond the borders of these countries. Around the world, there are still communities where people have little opportunity to hear the Bible in a language they understand.
As new opportunities arise and God opens doors, we hope to carry this mission into more places, reaching more people through physical audio bibles and the message of hope found in His Word.
The places may change, but our purpose remains the same. We want to bring God's Word within hearing reach of people who might otherwise never have the opportunity to hear it and discover the hope found in Jesus Christ.
