Over the last few years, cyclists with a love for Scripture pedalled their way through some epic sponsored rides. Their efforts raised £42,630 to bring God’s word into more lives. That could be 2,000 Bibles for people in prisons and another 2,000 for children caught in the war in Ukraine.

This year, we're once again inviting you to get pedalling and bring the transformative power of the Bible to people around the world.

Whether you cycle 5 miles or 50, solo or with a group, every mile covered and every pound raised makes a difference.

Your Impact

It costs as little as £10 to share the Bible with someone in their heart language. Through fundraising, you can help train Bible study leaders, run discipleship and literacy courses, and impact whole communities with the Bible's life-changing message.

£275 provides five Christians in Egypt with Bible study training, leadership skills and resources, equipping them to lead small groups in their communities.

£450 means we can run The Bible Course in ten prisons across England and Wales.

£860 will cover the cost of Bible literacy classes, including materials, for 15 women in The Gambia for a whole year.

Guatemala

Your support helps children like Mayra*. Mayra lives in Guatemala city, in an area plagued by gangs and violent crime. Open the Book volunteers came to her school to share Bible stories every week and now she feels a sense of hope and purpose. She says, ‘Hearing the Bible stories has inspired me to be a better person.’

*Name changed to protect her identity.

Ukraine

You can help people like Andriy and Yana, who were forced to flee their home in Ukraine and leave everything behind. They found sanctuary at a church in Lviv and came to faith by reading a Bible funded by generous supporters like you. Studying the Bible and being part of a local church community is helping them find God’s comfort and healing for their family.

China

Your support goes towards training and resources for leaders like Li. Li leads Bible studies for believers in Eastern China. Her groups include new believers and believers who’ve been Christians for a long time but never read Scripture.

In recent decades, we’ve seen explosive growth in the Chinese Church but there’s only around one pastor for every 6,700 believers. With your help, Bible Society is training and resourcing leaders to help grow a generation of mature, Bible-confident believers in China.
