Christy and Zach have been working in Nigeria (and Cameroon) since 2007 helping people use the Bible once it has been translated into their language. Nigeria has over 500 languages, and they have the joy of working with around 100 different project each year alongside a multi-ethnic team. In former roles, they have particularly enjoyed being a part of training Bible study leaders using the audio version of the Bible as well as training children's ministry workers. These busy days finds Christy exploring and creating with her five youngest as she homeschools them. Zach is currently serving as the director since 2021 in Nigeria with over 140 staff! He enjoys using a participatory leadership style, such as open space technology, to engage everyone in strategy and decision making. Please consider becoming a prayer or financial partner with them in this exciting Wycliffe ministry!

Wycliffe establishes a Ministry Budget for its members to reflect recurring expenses related to family factors and their geographic location of service. Giving to Wycliffe directly impacts members' ability to begin and remain in their assignment.
This monthly budget covers ministry-related expenses, insurance and retirement, social security and taxes, and Wycliffe administrative costs. The remainder is what the members receive as "take-home pay" for their daily living expenses.
