Wes will serve the Bible translation ministry full-time in the Stewardship Department at the JAARS Center in Waxhaw, North Carolina. More than 600 million people, speaking roughly 5,100 languages, have less than an entire New Testament in their most valued language. And when they can't understand what they read or hear, the life-transforming power of the Gospel is stopped in its tracks. "Wes is here to do something about that." From pilot training and mission aviation services to remote technology and communications support, Jaars provides off-the-grid logistical solutions that help make Bible translation possible.
Wes is passionate about leadership and developing his partners to impact God's kingdom more. Wes has been happily married for 20 years to his wife, Tami, and they have three children, Ryan, Abbey, and Christian. Wes invites you to prayerfully consider how God might call you to be a part of their Bible translation journey by joining his Wycliffe ministry team, making a difference in the world, and experiencing God's blessings.
Wycliffe Ministry Budget
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.
