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.

In July, 2009 the team completed the translation and recording of about 60 stories into local dialects.   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.  Seminars are held in various communities to teach local people to tell the stories.

Although the team has completed its assignment, Betty is continuing efforts to take these stories to communities within Mountain Province.
