Andy & Kristen arrived in West Africa in January 2000. The Weathers serve a wonderful community who, since 2020, now has the New Testament in their language. The Weathers are grateful to their African colleagues who have taught them how to live, love and be at home in their location. Old Testament translation is underway and literacy classes continue in towns and villages. Many speakers of the language are asking for more reading materials on their phones. One of the top priorities is making scripture apps and creating new reading apps at different reading levels. The translation team continues to lead the work and grow in their capacity. The Weathers’ mission is to empower the translation team to reach their own people with God's Word. They fervently desire to see a reproducing body of Christ who worship in the local language.
The Weathers love their work and invite you to partner in their Wycliffe ministry through prayer and financial giving. Please pray that God will continue to use Bible Translation to build His kingdom.

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.
