In 2001, after 13 years in the Pastorate, John and Kelly Chesnut felt God's call to serve Him in seeing the global Church partner together in new ways to bring His Word to those still waiting for Scripture in the language they understand best. Having served in a number of leadership roles in Asia and the USA, they are currently active with Wycliffe USA at the Orlando, FL headquarters.
John serves as Wycliffe President/CEO and Kelly as spiritual development officer.
The Chesnuts have seven adult children through birth and adoption and eight grandchildren. They love the tapestry of nations God has woven together in their family.
For years they have been sustained through the kindness and generosity of people like you who have shared out of their lack and out of their abundance. Would you prayerfully consider joining them in prayer and/or financial partnership in their Wycliffe ministry?

Wycliffe establishes a Ministry Budget for its members to reflect recurring expenses related to family factors and their geographic location of service. Giving to Wycliffe directly impacts members' ability to begin and remain in their assignment.
This monthly budget covers ministry-related expenses, insurance and retirement, social security and taxes, and Wycliffe administrative costs. The remainder is what the members receive as "take-home pay" for their daily living expenses.
