“Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; His love endures forever.” — Psalm 136:1

From our home, we’ve once again marvelled at how God can take a family’s small offering and multiply it for His glory, reaching children’s hearts around the world. As we pause halfway through 2025, we wanted to reach out personally—first, to thank God for His abundant provision and blessing, and second, to thank you for praying, sharing, translating, supporting, and encouraging us. Everything you read below has happened through your partnership and His grace.

CELEBRATING WHAT GOD HAS DONE

In the first half of this year, over 10 million visitors came to the main Trueway Kids website, an 11% increase compared to the same period last year. This does not include the growing traffic on our sub-sites (such as truewaykids.in), which now carry some of the original traffic.

We’ve welcomed visitors from 212 countries and territories. It continues to amaze us how God is reaching so many corners of the world through these resources, from large city churches to remote jungle villages.

GOD’S WORD IN MANY TONGUES

Our lessons are now translated into 55 languages! This is thanks to a growing team of dedicated volunteer translators who often work late into the night, balancing their day jobs with family and church life. We are so thankful for each of you. Each month, we continue to add new languages and more translations, covering VBS packs, teen studies, learning packs, and more.

INCLUDING EVERY CHILD – SEND LESSONS

This year, we’ve continued to develop, and release SEND (Special Educational Needs & Disabilities) lessons. Our goal is to ensure every child can engage with God’s Word. We’re currently working through the Old Testament, creating new accessible and inclusive lessons with visual aids, simplified language, and hands-on activities. By God’s grace, we are on track to complete our two-year SEND curriculum by the end of the year.

TRUEWAY TOTS COMPLETE!

We’ve now completed the entire Old and New Testament baby and toddler lesson packs through our Trueway Tots resources. These lessons are going through final checks and translations and will be uploaded to the site very soon. Going forward, all new bonus lessons will also include toddler versions.

CATCH-UP TIME FOR TRUEWAY TEENS

For Trueway Teens, we are also working to catch up, as our aim is to make every core lesson available for all age groups. Please pray for the time and focus needed to complete this important work.

FRESH BONUS LESSONS – ACTS

Throughout the year, we’ve been adding bonus lessons, including a recent special focus on the Book of Acts. For an entire month, we released new Acts lessons every week across four age groups. More are on the way to help children build a fuller picture of God’s Word.

  1. Paul in Ephesus 
  2. Lydia
  3. Paul Begins his Ministry
  4. Paul in Corinth

So far this year, we’ve launched four brand-new themed VBS programs:

  1. Disciples: Chosen, Trained & Sent
  2. God Made
  3. Gardens of Grace
  4. Rescue Ready

You can download them FREE here: https://truewaykids.com/vbs-programs/

It has been such a joy to see these programs already being used in churches, mission trips, camps, and homes—especially as summer outreach begins. It’s a blessing to hear stories of children deepening their walk with Jesus and even learning about Him for the first time.

Already we’ve received photos of children in the Philippines acting out Peter walking on water, and of a tiny church in rural Peru transforming their one-room building into a vibrant ‘Garden of Grace’. Messages like these encourage us so much!

MORE ENCOURAGING MESSAGES

  • USA: A small home church used Disciples as their summer outreach and shared that the children not only memorized the key verses but also took the message seriously, asking how they could tell their friends about Jesus.
  • India: A Sunday school teacher in a rural village said her class had never seen Bible illustrations before. Now the children eagerly gather to use Trueway Kids visuals each week.
  • Kenya: A primary school teacher in Nairobi’s Kibera slum used Gardens of Grace to start a container garden; the class now grows vegetables for lunch while reflecting on Genesis 2:15.
  • Russia: A youth leader wrote that her teen group is using the Trueway Teens studies, and two students have started leading short devotionals for their peers each week.
  • Mexico: A mother wrote her autistic son eagerly engages with the Spanish SEND lessons, especially the sensory activities, which has helped him memorize Scripture for the first time.
  • Indonesia: A homeschooling parent said the Educational Modules have become her children’s favourite part of the day, combining math drills with Bible exploration and sparking family discussions.
  • Peru: A missionary nurse wrote to say that her hospital’s playroom is now using our colouring pages so children waiting for the doctor can colour and hear Bible stories as they wait.

LOOKING AHEAD (JULY – DECEMBER 2025)

  • Complete the Old Testament SEND Curriculum.
  • Launch at least two more themed programs (VBS or midweek), bringing this year’s total to six.
  • Continue adding bonus lessons to help children grow in their understanding of the whole Bible.
  • Develop a new initiative to help teens and young adults regularly engage with God’s Word. More details to come!
  • Release new Educational Modules starting in September. These learning packs will include four sub-modules and over 200 pages of Bible-based educational activities. They are especially useful for homeschooling and are often being requested by NGOs working in educational settings.

PLEASE PRAY FOR US:

  • For wisdom, energy, guidance, and focus as we develop and release resources.
  • For strength and accuracy for our amazing team of volunteer translators.
  • For open hearts in the children and families using these lessons around the world.

Thank you for serving with us so that children everywhere can have free, engaging, Bible-cantered lessons in their own heart language. It is a privilege to serve alongside you.
