VISION

God’s Word for All People

Imagine a day when all the nations worship.

The Bible is more than just words on a page; it’s the living Word of God that has the power to capture hearts and transform lives forever.

In Revelation 7:9a, a heavenly scene is described: “After this I saw a vast crowd, too great to count, from every nation and tribe and people and language, standing in front of the throne and before the Lamb” (NLT).

This isn’t just a hoped-for future; it’s promised! That’s why Wycliffe Bible Translators will continue to serve with the global body of Christ to advance Bible translation so people can encounter God through His Word. It’s why we won’t stop working until people from every language can understand the Bible and be transformed

ABOUT JOHN & IRIS

Out of a love for God’s Word and its transformative power and a desire to play a part in helping all people have access to it, John and Iris joined Wycliffe, working in Nigeria since 2016. They have served in a variety of roles: visiting villages to determine language and translation needs; documenting and comparing dialects; recruiting and training Nigerian staff to join the work; proofreading and typesetting translated Scriptures so that they can be published and given to Nigerian communities. They also play an active role in their local church in Jos, Nigeria, and homeschool their three children.
