Malawi: Celebrations as Lambya Bible launched

Two individuals celebrate as they get their hands on the first complete Lambya Bible.

In the northern Malawian town of Chitipa, thousands gathered to celebrate the launch of the first complete Lambya Bible.

The culmination of a 21-year translation effort, the Bible was formally dedicated and presented to the community during a five-hour programme of music, dancing, singers and even acrobats. Attendees were reportedly visibly joyful as many received one of the first 1,000 copies to be distributed.
