WAVE
 |
WAVE is an exciting new program for anyone who is curious about how they can serve in Bible translation. Wycliffe Associates Volunteer Education will detail the many methods that go into translation, as well as how volunteers can be involved. These courses vary from technology, to media, to MAST, and even church networking. This is a perfect time to learn about how God can use your skills in the best ways. Our team will help you choose a class from our 10-week program, and you will receive your instruction in Orlando, FL. Aside from informative translation methods, we will also incorporate spiritual disciplines to compliment your new knowledge. Come join us for this new adventure!
