Ed & Elenore rejoice in the locally led follow-through that is being taken by Maya-Tektitek believers as they continue to engage with God though the Scriptures in their language. The investment that was made in producing that Scripture translation is now yielding the beautiful fruit of changed lives. The Beaches have therefore moved on to use what they learned in Bible translation and cross-cultural service to provide training, mentoring, and administrative support for practical and locally sustainable Scripture engagement in Africa, Asia, and the Americas.

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.
