Jason and Lydia have served in Asia. Jason has also served in Nigeria where he checked multiple portions of translated Scripture, and in South Africa where he helps with Psalms that Sing. They currently serve in the Translation Resources department at the International Linguistics Center in Dallas, TX. Jason is developing resources for analyzing and conceptually tagging the Hebrew Old Testament, including an exciting, novel Psalms web app, to be used by translators. These utilize Jason's understanding of computer programming, Biblical Hebrew, and Bible translation. Lydia currently serves Wycliffe part-time as a proofreader for Translator's Notes, the primary resource used by Bible translators.
Please consider investing in Bible translation by becoming a prayer or financial partner in the Sommerlads' Wycliffe 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.
