Can Bible Translation be accomplished without sharing knowledge and experiences? Perhaps, but it would be much slower and more difficult. By ushering technical academic papers through the publication process, Lana serves the Bible translation effort.
How do these papers help Wycliffe’s work? By documenting the work Wycliffe is able to share information with other members of the team, closely-related languages and even the world. Some countries have opened their doors to Wycliffe solely because of its good academic reputation, which they have achieved and maintained through publishing. So while Lana might not be involved directly in Bible translation, she is making better Bible translation possible around the world.

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.
