LUMO Project Achieves 1,000 Language Milestone
LUMO, the groundbreaking, multi-language biblical resource created to transform the way in which people engage, discover, and study the life of Jesus through the Gospels, has reached an unprecedented milestone in record time: available in more than 1,000 languages.
Hannah Leader, the creator of LUMO, produced these four stunning films so that anyone, anywhere in the world could fully experience the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John in visual form. “Over ten years ago I dreamt of producing a filmed version of the Gospels that would be accessible and transformative for people throughout the world by the simple expedient of using the Bible translations as the soundtrack so everyone can see and hear the Gospels in their mother tongue. I dreamt that we could reach 1,000 languages – with a lot of help and a lot of faith and in God’s good time we have achieved that goal – I am overwhelmed with joy,” Leader said.
LUMO is distributed by Bible Media Group (BMG) to resource ministries seeking to promote global biblical literacy. “We believe what we do is by the Kingdom for the Kingdom. We know that to accomplish our mission and vision, we need to walk side by side with likeminded ministries. And we would not have been able to fulfill Hannah’s dream without our partnership with Faith Comes By Hearing. It is through this amazing partnership that millions of people can engage with Scripture by watching God’s Word unfold in their own language,” said Tessie DeVore, president of BMG.
“We rejoice with LUMO and translation partners in reaching this milestone so quickly,” said Jonathan Huguenin, vice president of Global Partnerships and Language Recording for Faith Comes By Hearing (FCBH). “I’m continually amazed at the power of partnership. By combining FCBH Audio Bibles with LUMO visuals, together we were able to go from a few dozen languages to more than 1,000!”
