Dear Friends & Family,
Thanks for your constant love. Thank you to each one of you for having my back and looking out for me in the past. In just three days, I'll be in Brazil on an internship with Discovery, a short-term missions program of Wycliffe Bible Translators.
"Today
about 209 million people do not have any Scripture in their language.
Wycliffe’s vision is to see the Bible accessible to all people in the
language they understand best. To make this vision a reality, Wycliffe
also focuses on community development, literacy development and church
partnerships." (www.wycliffe.org)
I believe the Bible is life-giving, and I also love language-learning and cross-cultural interactions. I'd love to use my degree in linguistics to translate the Bible from the original Hebrew and Greek into at least one language. Whether that desire is far off or will happen immediately after grad school, I don't know. I can tell you that I eagerly anticipate this trip and what I'm about to learn and experience!
Click here to listen to John 3:16 in Quechua, a language spoken in Perú, Bolivia and Ecuador.
If you would like to make a financial contribution to my trip, you may make out a check (payable to WBT with Wycliffe Discovery on the check memo) and send it to:
Accounting-Discovery
Wycliffe Bible Translators
PO Box 628200
Orlando FL 32862
All contributions go directly to my trip costs.
I thank God for you, and I'm humbled and honored all at once to have you as friends/family!
Love,
Angelina
