ActiveHijuk · Mbula · Centre RegionSouthern Mbam Oral Bible Translation
Hijuk and Mbula are spoken in the Centre Region by communities that receive almost everything by ear. Rather than wait for a written translation neither language yet has the readership for, the teams are translating between 2,500 and 3,500 New Testament verses aloud, and publishing them as audio.

ActiveKom · North West RegionThe Kom Bible Project
The Kom New Testament was completed in 2004 and has been used enthusiastically ever since. Engaging with it gave people a hunger for more, and the churches asked for the Old Testament too. Since 2020 a local team in Bamenda has been translating it. Twenty books are complete, and every checked and unchecked draft is published at kombibleproject.com so Kom readers can review the work as it is done.

CompleteKom · North West RegionPsalms That Sing, the Kom pilot
Poets, pastors, translators and oral-literature specialists worked through the Psalter together, and it turned out several of them were musicians. Pastor Nkain Evarate brought a different instrument to every session. Sixty-three Psalms were translated, songs were composed from them and the readings were recorded, all while the North West was under armed conflict.
