AFRICA - WYCLIFFE BIBLE TRANSLATORS

Our missionaries for Africa are the Jacob Family with Wycliffe Bible Translators. Wycliffe's mission is to assist the church in making disciples of all nations through Bible translation.

Wycliffe was founded in 1942 by William Cameron Townsend. A missionary to the Cakchiquel Indians of Guatemala, Townsend caught the vision for translation after Cakchiquel-speaking men expressed their concern and surprise that God did not speak their language.

Today, the Summer Institute of Linguistics and Wycliffe Bible Translators work together to translate Scripture, train field personnel in linguistics and promote interest in translation. Over 500 translations have been completed, and hundreds more are in the process.
