THE WYCLIFFE MINISTRY OF

George & Wendy Payton

George & Wendy Payton

George & Wendy have served in the areas of Bible translation and training since 1982. Beginning in June 2020, George assumed a new ministry assignment at Dallas International University, our training center in Dallas, Texas. DIU equips students to serve with Wycliffe and other partnering translation organizations.

As Assistant Professor of Applied Linguistics and head of translation studies, George teaches core courses in Bible translation. His responsibilities include expanding the translation department to build a more robust offering of courses, and overseeing the design and development of relevant MA tracks for the increasing number of students coming to train in Dallas. Wendy serves as a Public Services Librarian at the DIU Library assisting students and faculty with their research endeavors.

Wycliffe’s “Vision 2025” goal is to see a Bible translation program in progress in every language still needing one by 2025. The translation training program at Dallas International University is designed for students who are interested in partnering with Bibleless people groups through the ministry of Bible Translation.

We invite you to invest in Bible Translation and “Vision 2025” by joining our Wycliffe ministry team as a prayer or financial partner.

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.
