OCTOBER 2025 UPDATE
Rolly Hurst serves as the FireBible Project Director for the Fijian and Samoan FireBible projects with AGWM International Ministries. He oversees more than 60 translators, editors, reviewers, and readers actively engaged in bringing these new language editions to life.
The FireBible—often described as a “one-book library”—contains the full biblical text along with study notes, articles, cross-references, a concordance, and application tools, all presented in the heart language of people groups around the world. Each edition is designed to equip pastors, leaders, and families for Christian service and to strengthen them in their work for the Lord.
Both the Fijian and Samoan FireBibles are making significant progress. The Fijian team is entering the final stages of editing, while the Samoan team prepares to begin its final reading phase. Once complete, these editions will serve as vital resources to strengthen the Church across the Pacific.
Thank you for standing with us in prayer and partnership—and for your faithfulness through the years—as we work to bring God’s Word to people in their own language.
Prayer Requests:
Please pray for the final edit of the Fijian FireBible. The team is attempting to finish this in the next two months.
Please pray for unity among the Samoan leadership as they prepare to begin the final reading phase of translation.
Please pray for the formatting team who is attempting to finish the Fijian FireBible in record time.

Sixty-seven of the top languages are already completed because of your support, and over twenty additional languages are currently in process. Our continued focus is on the Fijian and Samoan language editions FireBibles. Great progress was made on building the translation team for the Fijian FireBible and the Samoan language edition will be starting in the next few months. We are grateful for unity on these projects and excited to see their impact amongst each group of speakers. Your sacrificial giving is going to help provide this incredible resource to Fijian and Samoan pastors so they can train and teach the next generation of leaders, all in a language they know and can understand.
