Elaine Lauer first felt called to join the work of Bible translation in 2016, and since then God has been preparing her for missions through a journey of personal and spiritual growth. Desiring to serve the Lord with her talents and interests, Elaine’s calling to Bible translation has expanded into a desire to make God’s Word more accessible to the Deaf through sign language Bibles. She will be working with the Global Sign Languages Team most likely in Romania to complete their Orientation and Training Program, and is excited to see which country and sign language God will lead her to work alongside in the future. Would you consider partnering with Elaine - through prayer and/or finances - to bring God’s Word to Deaf communities around the world?

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.
