About Manna Publications (UK)

In 1990, Fred and Lorna Morris retired to the USA to live near their family. In October 2000, he established Manna Publications in the UK which helps to edit and explain the Bible in easy-to-read worldwide English for use in the developing countries. They use techniques for writing in plain English developed by SOON Ministries in Willington, Derbyshire. Manna Publications (UK) is a non-denominational voluntary organisation which supports the Evangelical Alliance (UK) statement of faith. It is staffed by unpaid volunteers.

Fred's Bible studies and self-teaching commentaries have been translated into French, Portuguese and Spanish and printed in 30+ countries and 30 local languages since October 2000. See our news pages (English or French) for our latest overseas printing projects. A sample Bible study is shown daily (Manna Online) using the easy-to-read New International Reader's Version (NIRV) Bible text in plain English which is based on the popular NIV Bible.

We make our 40-page Bible teaching studies easy to read for people whose second or third language is English, French Portuguese or Spanish in the developing countries.  They help explain the truth of God in the Bible. They also help to learn the language. Our aim is also to offer our easy-to-read Bible study commentaries in the form of free downloads (at publication titles) to read or print without copyright restriction and to translate into local languages.
