OUR MISSIONARIES
”And Jesus Came and said to them, ‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. God therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And Behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” ~ Matthew 28:18-20
The Jones Family
About Them
The Joneses (Todd and Esther) have faithfully served with Wycliffe Bible Translators since 2002, in both the U.S. and abroad. Our church has been privileged to be one of their prayer and financial supporters since 2003.
Todd contributes to the overall task of Bible translation through linguistic software development. He writes computer programs that Bible translators use on the field to more quickly and accurately translate Scripture. Esther ministers as a classroom translator and spiritual mentor for linguistics students training to become overseas missionaries, with her greatest contribution as a wife and mother to their five children.
About Wycliffe
The Remaining Task
More than 380 million people worldwide still need God’s Word in their language. At the current rate of translation, they would have to wait for another 100 to 150 years.
Vision 2025
Wycliffe’s mission is to assist the church in making disciples of all nations through Bible translation. Our vision is to see translation in progress among every language group that needs it by 2025.
JAARS
JAARS provides quality technical support services and resources to speed Bible translation for all people. The Joneses are Wycliffe missionaries presently serving in Africa as an extension of JAARS.
