The mission of the Pennsylvania Bible Society is to distribute Holy Scripture without note or comment to all who want to hear it, at an affordable price, or free of charge to those unable to pay.

The Pennsylvania Bible Society is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization governed by a Board of Directors who serve without compensation. The business affairs of the Society are handled by an Executive Director, a Resource Center Manager, and a Program Coordinator.
