Wycliffe Bible Translators

Prayer Support

First Nations Bible

Plan to have the Pentaque (the first five books of the Bible) plus Joshua done and published by June 2027. The Ohlsons have completed their reviews and comments on Genesis and Exodus. Terry Wildman (who leads the project has completed drafts of Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy.) The counsel seeks to be Spirit-led in translating from the original Hebrew to the First Nations Translation and has been open to suggestions relating to accuracy and phrasing of specific passages.

Dave Ohlson has been consistently active in their local church for many years. Now that Jon, Amy, and their family are back in the USA, he has decided to step back from church duties and focus on time with family.

We thank God for their faithfulness over the decades with Wycliffe and now with the First Nations Bible translation team. We pray for health and longevity in this older season of life and pray for many opportunities to spend time with family.
