SEE THE FILM

Travel with us to Papua New Guinea and see how God used a devastating tsunami to change the work of Bible translation. 

READ OUR BOOK

We wrote Sleeping Coconuts to tell the fascinating story of the amazing things the Lord did in the aftermath of the 1998 tsunami. Kindle and printed versions are available. The one-minute book trailer is here

We also enjoy speaking to churches and groups. Here is one example. Contact us if you are interested. 

ALLEVIATING BIBLE POVERTY

God has spoken to us in His Word, the BIble. But millions of people still have no access to it because there is no Bible translation in their language. Changing that is what we are all about.

Our ministry has three main parts. 

IN PAPUA NEW GUINEA 

Our primary ministry is assisting local pastors from 11 languages to translate the Bible into their languages. John acts as their consultant, coaching them through the translation process from first draft to published scripture.

IN THE BOARDROOM

Bonnie serves by leading. She is a member of Wycliffe USA's Board of Directors and also of the Jaars Board of Directors. 

AROUND THE WORLD

John helps test and improve Bible translation software. He also teaches translators and translation consultants to use it. His training materials are in use around the world. The software is in use in around 2,000 Bible translation projects. 

PARTNER WITH US

Bible translation is a team ministry

We have the awesome privilege to live in a time when some of us may live to see the last language receive a translation of the Bible.
