During and after the completion of her linguistics and computer science degrees, Lainey served on language development and translation projects as a Wycliffe software development intern. Based most recently in Southeast Asia over a period of ten months, God affirmed language development and Scripture translation to Lainey as long-term vocations. Lainey is returning to SE Asia as a member of Wycliffe, contributing at the intersection of linguistics and computation -- collaborating so that one day, all people may encounter Jesus through His word.
Missionaries never serve alone. In her ministry with Wycliffe, Lainey needs a team: faithful partners in prayer and finances. You are invited to share the joy of advancing Bible translation and consider partnering in Lainey's Wycliffe ministry.
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.
