 The room we’ve been adding in the house we share with Lynée’s parents is done! This converted attic space is 19x19 and gives us a private living area and more storage space. I moved my office there on June 1. We’ve also been able to unpack more of the boxes from our move here in October 2020. The room is a great blessing, and we thank all of those who have been praying for us during this transition to Nashville.
 You may remember us talking about Vision 2025 — Wycliffe’s goal adopted in 1999 of starting a Bible translation in every language (where there is a need) by 2025. Wycliffe has produced a map, Countdown to Vision 2025, showing the status of each country. Amazing progress has been made by God’s grace.
 My team meetings in Waxhaw, North Carolina, in March went quite well. It was wonderful to see most of the team face to face for the first time since early 2020. Everyone got to meet our new director, and he is off to a good start in this role. I was quite sick with a stomach virus the first day of meetings but thankfully was mostly recovered after a day. Before team meetings, a new version of our Roman fonts was released. We added over 180 characters to support minority languages around the world which need Bible translation.
 In March, Lynée also had meetings with her team. They met in Dallas, so Lynée got to visit with some of our old friends during that trip. Also, her team held their annual orientation for teachers last week (June 25-30) in Orlando (see photo). Six educators were prepared for serving missionary families overseas. Lynée’s work was mostly done before the meetings started so she did not attend physically but at least met everyone over a video call.
We are deeply grateful to all those who support our work. “Thank you!” for praying, giving, and helping. We are tentatively planning to visit Georgia September 10-24 to see partners, friends, and family there. Please let us know how you are doing and how we can pray for you.
In the Goodness and Greatness of God
