One thing that has brought great joy to our hearts recently is the decision of Jim and Michelle, (our daughter and son-in-law) to join the ministry of Wycliffe Bible Translators. We are passionate about Bible translation! It’s our dream to see our world filled with disciples of every tribe and tongue and people and nation, and that can’t happen until people have God’s Word in a language they can understand. So we are thrilled that they are on their way! They are in the process of developing a team of ministry partners now, and they hope to move to their assignment in Papua New Guinea by August. Yeah! We are passionate about Bible translation, but we are also very passionate about Jim and Michelle and Baby Danny! We can really connect with the apostle John, who said "I could have no greater joy than to hear that my children are following the truth!" (III John 4).
Meanwhile, Matthew is in his first year of law school at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver. So far he really loves it. He does community service in a legal aid clinic in his spare time, helping people with immigration problems who cannot afford a lawyer. From the time he was a little boy we always said he would be a great lawyer because he loves to talk, and he loves to convince you to do things you thought you did not want to do! It seems he is on the way to finding his niche.
