John works alongside Bible translators in Asia by helping them with their language technology needs. For example, by importing a dictionary into Fieldworks Language Explorer, he gives the translator a valuable tool for choosing just the right words that are needed for the translation.
He and his wife Lois lived and worked in Southeast Asia for 19 years. Following Lois’s passing in 2011, John now works remotely from his home in Missouri.
In his role of Language Technology Consultant, John is part of a larger team bringing people the life-transforming Word of God. To enable John to fulfill his Wycliffe ministry, he needs a team of people to encourage him, and to pray for and give to this ministry.

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.
