Dallas Bound



I wrote in my November newsletter that it was critical for me to be at 50% of my Wycliffe ministry budget by January in order to start linguistics training. A couple weeks later, God provided! He did it beyond what I needed and far sooner than I anticipated. "Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen." (Ephesians 3:20-21, ESV).
I'll be packing my bags and heading to Dallas to attend classes at the Graduate Institute of Applied Linguistics. I have orientation January 3-4 and classes start on January 5. I'll be in Dallas until mid-September.
I'm so thankful for those of you who have already partnered in my Wycliffe ministry through prayer, finances, and encouragement. 

 In Christ,
Kaley

Assignment: Central African Republic

I'm done with my studies in Texas and back in the North for a few months. Here's an update: New Assignment: Central African Republic God has guided me through the process of deciding where to serve and  has led me to the Central African Republic (CAR). CAR is a country that’s about the size of Texas in the heart of Africa. I’ll be living in the capital, Bangui, working closely with the national translation organization that’s one of Wycliffe’s strategic partners. As I start out, I’ll serve by helping with linguistic analysis which lays the foundation for Bible translation projects. One thing that has drawn me to the central part of Africa is the great need there. CAR has around 72 languages and around 53 of those have no Scripture at all. Don't know a lot about CAR? Here's a video that will give you an intro to the country: CAR Quick Facts: Population: 5,000,000 Capital: Bangui Number of Languages: 72 Number of Languages withou...

A Year in Review

Image
This year was not what I would call "normal." About a year and a half ago, I started looking at Bible translation and became a member of Wycliffe Bible Translators in April. I would like to say that this has always been a dream of mine, but it hasn't. Up until about six years ago, my goal was to live and work overseas in Europe, having nothing to do with ministry and certainly not missions. It was God that gave me new goals. Now I couldn't be more excited about being a missionary. I will live overseas, but in an underdeveloped country, helping to translate God's Word so that he can be glorified among the nations.  There are a lot of changes to come in 2017; for starters, my New Years will begin with a trip to Dallas to start linguistics training. Looking back, God has been so good to me this year, but I want to acknowledge that He's always been good. Even when I felt I had little to report or wasn't content, He was good. The lack was in my grate...
