Nick is from Christchurch, New Zealand, and Lydia is from North Carolina, USA. They met at the Canada Institute of Linguistics in 2018 while studying for their Master's degrees. While studying, they got caught up in the excitement of Bible translation and felt called to the mission field. They officially began their journey as Bible translators when they became Wycliffe members in 2020.
With hearts for people who have never heard God’s Word in their own language, they venture towards Peru with the calling and training to do Bible translation.

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.
