History of Bible Work in Ghana

The real story of Bible work can be traced back to the desire of a young Welsh girl, Mary Jones, to own a Bible in her own language. Mary was born in Wales in 1784 at a time when Bibles were very scarce and expensive. This little girl longed for her own Bible from a young age and saved for years to be able to buy one. In 1800, when she was 16 years old, she travelled on foot for about 40 km in order to obtain her own Bible.
