Andy serves as part of Wycliffe's executive leadership team as Executive Vice President for Global Partnerships. During the past few years, he helped develop and lead this multi-organizational team as they seek to more deeply engage the global church in Bible translation. Today, this team is made up of about 80 people from 16 different organizations and churches around the world, connecting with church, mission, and Bible translation leaders to develop quality Bible translation projects. This enables Wycliffe to join with them to see that God's Word is made available to people that don't have access to it in appropriate languages. Among a number of responsibilities, Andy also represents Wycliffe to the general public in the States, including media outlets.
Lori serves as Prayer Information Liaison for the Global Partnerships Team. She makes use of some 400-500 quarterly project reports to craft prayer requests to share with people in the US that have a desire to pray for Bible translation. In addition, she continues to support Andy in his leadership role, frequently joining him as he travels to build and strengthen relationships with Bible translation leaders around the globe.
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.
