"A diverse group of people are needed to get a diverse job done in a diverse world…"
Wycliffe South Africa is privileged to partner with local churches and Bible Translation organisations across southern Africa to bring God's Word to language groups as soon as possible.
We also have a diverse team in South Africa providing the much-needed background support (such as accounting for translation projects, training, IT and logistical support).
In other areas of the world, we have staff doing similar things to translate and support Bible translation work (such as teaching the children of ministry workers or Scripture Use and Literacy).
