For 15 years, I lived and worked in the west African country of Ivory Coast where I helped translate the New Testament into the Jula language. In February 2014 I had the privilege of attending the dedication of the entire Bible in this language. I am now based in Dallas where I am an editor and author of the Translator's Notes: a series of commentaries/translation manuals for national Bible translators. In addition, I spend three months of the year in Nigeria where I give translation consulting help to two translation teams.

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.
