OneStory Partnership

One major ministry of the YWAM Mountain Province team is the OneStory Partnership. This is a global partnership involving YWAM, Wycliffe International, Trans World Radio, International Mission Board, and Campus Crusade for Christ. The mission of the OneStory Partnership is to develop, initiate and facilitate oral strategies to communicate God’s Word to oral peoples who are unreached or Bibleless, resulting in sustainable, indigenously led, reproducing church planting movements which transform lives and societies to reflect a biblical worldview. Patrick, Betty, and Walter spend several days each week serving as members of the Core Team for this project. The Core Team in Bontoc is composed of members from the Roman Catholic Church, Anglican Church, YWAM, Pentecostal Church, and the Baptist Church. This One Story Project is overseen by the Bontoc Scripture Society of which Rufina is Board Secretary of the the Board of Trustees.

The team has worked to translate an initial 12 stories and is working toward a goal of 60 stories which can be communicated orally. The stories are designed so that the content and style is culturally appropriate yet accurate. The intent is that the stories are memorable so that they can be shared orally and dramatically.
