Albert and Anita Bickford support the work of Deaf translators in sign languages all over the world, especially in identifying sign language translation needs, in software development, and in linguistic analysis. They have also had the privilege of preparing students for service as translators, trainers, and consultants for Bible Translation and other language-related ministries, for over 40 years, most recently at Dallas International University. Their students serve all over the world with Wycliffe and other similar organizations, working with both spoken and signed languages. We hope that you will be interested in joining with them in serving speakers and signers of languages worldwide.

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.
