Dear Friends & Family,
We just got back from a 10 day visit to San Juan, Manila.
We attended a week long training session with the translation people of BSA (ECS). It was a wonderful time of fellowship with Dinna & Rikki Tienzo, Darben DelaCruz, Maila Agunda (instructor), and yes, we learned a great deal about the art and science of translation (thank you, Maila!).
Our team is greatly encouraged by the training and eager to continue with the “big job” of translating Bill MacDonald’s “Believer’s Bible Commentary” into Tagalog (Filipino). The team is committed to translate the English into easy, every-day Tagalog, and to keep true to what Bill said & wrote.
☛ Indeed, a big job! Please pray for the team!
We started the translation of the commentary on the Gospel of John and we are trying to find more people to help us to translate Bill’s Commentary on the OT, starting with Genesis.
☛ Please pray that the LORD will provide!
Thanks for praying!
In Him!
Patrick & Karen

” Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name. Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: Who forgives all yours iniquities; who heals all your diseases; Who redeems your life from destruction; who crowns you with loving kindness and tender mercies…” – Psalm 103:1-4
