Americas STUART, Peter and Linda Peter and Linda, along with their sons Isaac, Joel, and Kean, serve in Porto Velho, Brazil in aviation. Peter is as pilot, supporting Bible translation, Scripture use, and church planting. Peter was born and raised in Bridgewater, N.S. until he left to attend Moody Bible Institute in Chicago, Ill. There he met his wife, Linda who is from Appleton, Wis. They married in 2005 and moved to Washington State, where they continued with Moody Aviation in their mission aviation program. In 2012, they joined Wycliffe and in 2014 moved to Brazil with their two boys. In May 2015, the couple gave birth to their third son–a Brazilian! They now work and minister out of Porto Velho, making flights to expedite and enable Bible translation, church planting, and discipleship. “We love serving and enabling Bible translation because of the direct link it has to transforming people’s lives,” explains Peter. “As a pilot I get to hear firsthand stories of God working through His Word, changing lives and communities–all because God is speaking people’s heart language through His translated Word.” The Stuarts welcome any questions you may have and would love to hear from you.

BIBLE TRANSLATION CHANGES EVERYTHING. - God has spoken, and continues to speak, through His Word—the Bible. The Scriptures point to Jesus, the source of life, restoration and salvation.

LITERACY OPENS DOORS. - When people can read Scripture in a language they clearly understand, they can better interact with it and integrate it into their lives. That’s why literacy programs often go hand in hand with Bible translation. And when they gain access to other translated resources like Bible studies and devotional materials, local churches thrive spiritually. LITERACY 0% 0% LITERACY OPENS DOORS.

GOD'S WORD TRANSFORMS LIVES WHEREVER IT GOES. - While the truth of God’s Word remains the same, people around the world relate to God through Scripture in vastly different ways — because people, communities, and cultures differ. ENGAGEMENT WITH SCRIPTURE GOD'S WORD TRANSFORMS LIVES WHEREVER IT GOES. While the truth of God’s Word remains the same, people around the world relate to God through Scripture in vastly different ways — because people, communities, and cultures differ. Bible translation doesn’t stop with the completion of printed, audio, or visual Scripture. Learning how to engage with Scripture is where the transformation of lives and communities begin. Together with partner churches and organizations worldwide, Wycliffe develops creative methods to help people everywhere understand the Word, interact with it, and integrate it into their daily lives. People and communities find dignity, hope, and meaning as they engage deeply through Scripture with the God who loves them. Churches grow, thrive, and make disciples. God’s Kingdom expands.

Test Test GIVE NOW The Hdi Word for Love CAMEROON . While translating the New Testament into Hdi, translator Lee discovered something remarkable. The Hdi language had several words for love—but only one, ɗvu , described a love that remained steadfast regardless of the other person’s response. It was the perfect word to express God’s unconditional love. “It would mean that God kept loving us over and over, millennia after millennia, while all that time we rejected His great love,” reflected one Hdi elder. This Thanksgiving, your gift will help more people discover the depth of God’s love through Scripture in their own language.
