How Can I Understand? Children's Project

For Ethiopian children, the Bible's many pages can seem overwhelming. They need books written on their level to introduce them to Jesus. You can help!

“As German pastors work with Iranian immigrants, the pastor will have German copy of the catechism and the refugee a Farsi copy. The LHF catechism project is an aid in this teaching. It is a Farsi language Small Catechism with about 176 questions/answers of core Christian beliefs. These questions are translated in German at the end so the pastor can read in German. The person being taught has the questions in Farsi, along with the Biblical references. This is where the new catechism will be a big help, by assisting people who don’t have a translator so the books can still teach people.”

Rev. Hugo Gevers Pastor, Trinity Lutheran Church in Leipzig
