Wycliffe Bible Translators - Dr Ronnie and Margaret Sim

Ronnie and Margaret Sim left the UK in 1975 and spent 18 years in Ethiopia, translating the New Testament into the Kambaata language and the four Gospels into Hadiyya. For the past 12 years they have been teaching African students in the intricacies of Bible Translation at the Nairobi Evangelical Graduate School of Theology. The aim of this work is to equip Africans to translate God’s Word into their own particular language. They have recently introduced a PhD programme to enable Africans to teach Africans how to undertake Bible translation.

Wycliffe UK is part of an international family of organisations with over 6500 members from over 60 countries. Work is in progress in nearly 1300 languages. Wycliffe workers are involved in 80% of the translation projects going on today. They have helped to complete 623 translations, making God's Word available to more than 77 million people. This has always been done hand in hand with local communities. For more information click here http://www.wycliffe.org.uk/
