Two New Organizations

You're going to be hearing a lot about two new organizations that Wycliffe has asked us to work with, so I thought it would be good to give some introductions.

The first is SIL (Summer Institute of Linguistics), an organization started in the U.S., with the desire to develop translations for indigenous peoples all over the world. (If you want to know more about SIL's achievements only in the Philippines, click here.)

The other organization is called TAP (Translators Association of the Philippines), which is comprised of Filipino-born translators who share the same vision as SIL. Of course, their committment is for all indigenous peoples in the Philippines to have a Bible translation in their heart language, but they are wanting to expand their vision out into the rest of the Asia, also.

We'll primarily be working with SIL while we are here, but TAP has already asked me to help recruit Filipino college students sometime in the fall!
