Papua New Guinea is home to over 800 distinct languages with more than 300 that do not have a single verse of God's Word. Scott & Lynell, along with their children, are following God's call to the Ghayavi people of Papua New Guinea.
After meeting the Ghayavi people, Scott and Lynell were inspired by their hard work and dedication to translating the Bible for their own people, in spite of the limited resources available to them. "We believe God will send someone to help us," they said.
While working on the Bible for the Ghayavi, Scott is also training to become a translation consultant, so that he can assist even more people groups get God's Word into their heart language.

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.
