The Hudson Family are members of Wycliffe Bible Translators. They have been missionaries since 1991. They are currently serving in Ukarumpa, Papua New Guinea. PNG has over 800 languages! There are hundreds of ongoing translation projects that need support. Their primary work is to support this work of getting God's Word to the people in their own "heart" language.
Dan is serving at the Auto Shop where he trains nationals in various skills and through friendship and devotional times. They keep the vehicles running that missionaries use to get out to villages to do translation work, teach literacy, teach Papua New Guineans how to translate God's Word, show the Jesus film, etc. He also does trips to encourage and help out in village allocations.
Nancy serves in Member Care: Kitchen Angels meals ministry, Soul Clinic prayer ministry, ladies Bible studies, and format checking of the New Testament Scriptures before they go to the printers. Both Dan and Nancy are involved with the youth ministry at Ukarumpa and reaching out on youth mission trips within the country. They love spending time with missionary kids.

Pastor Jean and Merese Romain are serving the church in Haiti. They now oversee an orphanage (Good Shepherd's Love Orphanage), seven schools, seven churches, and a Bible School. Two years ago, they started construction on a 40-bed hospital in Thomazeau, a remote and desperate village near Port-au-Prince. The hospital is now at the last stage of construction, and they are in need of supplies such as X-ray and lab equipment, ambulances, ultra-sound machines, etc.
Future goals for the Romain's ministry include a hot meal program for all of the schools, individual student sponsorship, and a vocational school for the orphanage.

Danny and Peggy Thornton were Children’s Pastors at Longview Christian Fellowship for six years before being sent out by LCF to the mission field in September, 1990. After serving four years in Saltillo, Mexico and one year in Guatemala in training of children’s teachers and in evangelisms, they moved back to be based out of the USA. Now, they travel out to minister in various countries.
Their ministry has always been to children or children’s teachers. In the summer of 2001, they expanded to begin holding week-long national conferences to train children’s teachers. Danny and Peggy lead a team of 10-16 U.S. teachers to do the training. In the week following, those nationals that are trained do intensive evangelisms in teams of five. Follow-up discipleship classes are held for 4 weeks for those who receive Christ during the evangelisms. Danny & Peggy speak Spanish and have held 20 Nationwide Conferences in Central and South America to this date.
Their vision is to help the nationals do the ministry. By training others to do the ministry in their own country, the Thorntons can then go to other countries to train more people, thereby multiplying the ministry.
Please, check out both where they have just returned from and where they will minister next at www.beyondourselves.org.

Kevin and Colleen Walters are members of Wycliffe Bible Translators serving in Niger, West Africa, under SIL International. Their goal is to glorify God by helping to build His church and make disciples through the ministry of Bible translation. Their work focuses primarily on translation, production of literacy materials, and language development for the 300,000 ‘D’ people of Niger and Chad. They have helped establish both Roman and Arabic script orthographies for the ‘D’ language and have printed numerous literacy books, including a ‘D’ version of God’s Story--an evangelistic summary of the Bible message--in Roman script (an Arabic script edition is in progress).
Other activities include:
- Seeking to be light and salt as a Christian presence in a language community that is virtually 100% Muslim; this has included food and medical aid to the poor, modeling biblical values, etc.
- Discipling individual believers.
- Giving moral and financial support to Nigerien evangelist/pastors working among unreached peoples in isolated parts of Niger.
- Distributing God’s Story in various local languages on MegaVoice Ambassador units (small hand-held, solar powered, digital audio players).
