ANNUAL REPORT 2016 YWAM KONA<br />
Since 1960 Loren, joining with many other global leaders, has carried a burden to make the Bible<br />
accessible to every person on earth in their mother tongue by 2033, thereby ending Bible poverty<br />
worldwide. Wherever the Bible goes, the Spirit of God brings transformation! In recent years, he has<br />
met with hundreds of influential leaders in evangelical, charismatic and Pentecostal denominations,<br />
as well as those leading the oldest Christian traditions, to invite their partnership in this cause.<br />
Loren’s personal goal is to make at least an oral translation of Scripture available to the 1,869 totally<br />
Bible-less languages by 2020. He is actively recruiting more than one million Christians that will sign<br />
a pledge to help eradicate Bible poverty by praying and serving as the Holy Spirit leads them (www.endbiblepovertynow.com).<br />
Born in Taft, California, Loren’s family heritage is rich with generations of Christian ministers. His educational<br />
background includes three Bachelor degrees, a Master of Science in Administration of Education,<br />
and three Honorary Doctorates. Loren is the author of five books: Is That Really You, God?<br />
(translated into more than 130 languages), Making Jesus Lord, Daring to Live on the Edge, Why Not<br />
Women? and The Book that Transforms Nations—the Power of the Bible to Change any Country.<br />
