In Canada, a family of organizations partners
to further Bible translation and other language-related ministries
for many of the world's language groups.
Wycliffe Bible Translators of Canada seeks to empower indigenous peoples worldwide for spiritual, personal and social growth through Bible translation and other language-related ministries. Wycliffe Canada is primarily a sending organization; we mobilize personnel, promote prayer and raise funds to support members and their overseas projects.

Canada Institute of Linguistics (CanIL), the training program of Wycliffe Canada, helps prepare its students for effective cross-cultural communication and language analysis. Located at Trinity Western University in Langley, British Columbia, CanIL provides valuable training for those planning to serve in another language and culture.

Global PartnerLink (GPL) seeks to dramatically increase participation in the world's Bible translation movement by linking ministry partners in Canada with national Bible translation partners around the globe. GPL's strengths are raising significant funding and linking major donors directly with like-minded organizations working in selected languages.
