Dear Family and Friends,
Wow, the above statistic breaks our hearts. This is the very reason that we feel passionate to serve the mission of Bible translation with Wycliffe Bible Translators. On July 22nd our home in PNG will be full of teenagers ready to start the next school term. If we are not at full financial support we won't be approved to leave. Our hope is to leave in early June so that we can train with the current staff before they depart for a yearlong visit stateside. Please join us in this call to support Bible translation through caring for teens of translators - it takes a team!
We are in great need of prayer and on-going financial partners to come alongside us in this Wycliffe ministry. If you are considering partnering, please let us know. Every contribution and moment in prayer is a huge blessing to us!
Love,
Kari & Cassidy
