What a treat to have Duane and Heljä here for Thanksgiving week. Our visit started by joining them at the Wycliffe Center in Orlando for the Last Languages Celebration!We were able to celebrate some recent translations and kickoff the thrust to start the last 2200 un-translated languages!! It was such a great day of celebration, challenge and encouragement.
Scripture says that Jesus will return when everyone has heard. How exciting to be a part of the return of Christ by sharing about Jesus' love and forgiveness! Over 200 million still cannot read the word of God in their own language. How fortunate we are to have the Bible in our language!

Until God allows them back into Indonesia, they are working on translation long distance and Duane is teaching other missionaries at the Institute of Linguistics in Dallas.
