Dale and Leanne serve the Teita Mixtec people in Southern Mexico as consultants to co-translator Juan, as he revises books of the New Testament. They also serve the SIL Mexico branch in different ways: Dale is the Executive Secretary and Director of Communications, and Leanne is the main librarian. They are blessed with four grown daughters, all married: Jill and her husband have one child and live in Tucson; Olivia and her husband have five children and live in California; Angie and her husband have one child and live in Oregon; and Coley (Nicole) and her husband also live in Oregon. Dale and Leanne are thankful for the many individuals and churches who are partners with them in their Wycliffe ministry through prayer and finances.

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.
