Translator’s Notes News

It is the glory of God to conceal things, but the glory of kings is to search things out.
Proverbs 25:2

Progress continues to be made on the Translator’s Notes series in Spanish. The team is working on finishing several books that were only partially done. My work on Genesis is finally finished and is in the pre-publication process. I am currently adapting Proverbs 23-31. The team is moving other books toward completion. These are Luke, I Corinthians and Ephesians. We meet regularly via Zoom to make final decisions on remaining issues in the various books. Continue to pray that we will make good progress. Also pray that the Lord will call others to join the team so more books become available more quickly.

Bribri Update

Irene, our Bribri translation partner, recently sent a positive report about her ministry. After the Bribri New Testament was available, she began Bible study groups in a couple of places. She still has contact with these groups, but over the last couple of years, she has been opening a work in a new area. This new group has been growing and now numbers about 50 members of whom more than half arc young people. They have now built a roof to meet under. She was happy to report that seven young people recently chose to follow Christ. She is thanking God that all those many years spent preparing the translation arc now bearing fruit in Bribri lives. Continue to pray for continued growth and for Lhe Lord to raise up more lrenes.

Our daughter Christina is planning to spend about seven weeks in Peru this summer. She will be working with children through Bible Centered Mini!trics (BCM) International. She would appreciate your prayers for this new venture.
