Year for the Children & Youth - 2018
The year 2018 has been dedicated for the Children & Youth. One of the main focus of Ceylon Bible Society has been Youth and Children for very special reason during the past years. From our past experience, it is evident that the Youth & Children need more Biblical knowledge and encouragement to lead a contented family life. Youth and Children have been the center of our Ministry since the future of the Church depends on them.

Ceylon, the former name of the modern state of Sri Lanka, became a British possession in 1796, an event thought noteworthy enough for its centenary to be commemorated by a terrace name a hundred years later.
