Ruth Jones - Wycliffe Bible Translators

 

From August to December 2009 I will be based at the Wycliffe Centre near High Wycombe, where I will be taking part in the European Training Programme (ETP). This course provides the initial training people need to take up a specific overseas assignment.  It is split into two key sections:  

 

· Language and Culture Acquisition (LACA)

· Assignment Related Training (ART) (with a focus on Linguistics, Literacy or Scripture Use)

 

During the ART section of the course I hope to follow the Linguistics track, learning how to develop a writing system and analyse the grammar of an unwritten language.

 

Following this training, I hope to take up an overseas assignment early in 2010. As yet, details have not been confirmed, but I would like to go back to Burkina Faso if possible. This assignment should last for 18 months – 2 years, and will allow me to put the training I have received into practice.

 

If you would like more information about what I get up to over the coming months, or would like to partner with me financially, please email me on:
