Progress Report on the Translation!


The translation of the Tala-Andig New Testament is continuing to progress on schedule!!  Our March goal was to finish 1 Peter, start 2 Peter and finish up to 2 Peter 3:7 and this was completed last week on March the 31st!! Thank you so much for praying and please PRAISE the Lord along with us as we rejoice in the progress He is giving us each month!!!

New Prayer Point for the month of April is that we will finish 2 Peter and also 1 John and finish up to 2 John 1:11.


This is the view I (Deb) have each morning: I look across the desk at my beloved fellow-translator and husband of almost 33 years - working opposite me as we literally wrestle for hours with the words and meanings that we ask God to help us translate as accurately as we can into the Tala-Andig language. Our 5 am start (4 am on Monday mornings) is very precious to us as we seem to make better progress in the quiet coolness of the early mornings.

In the background is Paul's favourite map - the map of the apostle Paul's missionary journeys. A reminder of our Lord's heart for the lost and that He wants us to take the Gospel to the uttermost parts of the world.

Thanks for praying and please keep praying for us every day if possible - we need your prayers so much!!!!
