Sarah's Profile

I serve as a Mobilizer with Wycliffe in the Mobilization Department and am passionate about social justice, refugees, minority people groups, Frisbee and God’s Word - for everyone! Bibleless people groups are a social justice issue! Everyone deserves to have access to His Word - no matter where you live, how hard it is to get there, or how small or marginalized your people group is.  I work with individuals who live in Atlantic Canada and are interested in making a global difference through their skills, interests and experience. It's so exciting to come alongside people who are jumping into the adventures God is calling them to as they engage in His Word and encounter His passion for all nations!
