About Us

Hi, I'm James!  My wife and I are followers of Jesus Christ and serving God and his people in East Africa, where we arrived in late 2016.  We are members of Pioneer Bible Translators (PBT).  I grew up in Yakima, WA in the beautiful Pacific Northwest.  Among many things, I enjoy the outdoors (especially backpacking), motorcycling, watching old classic movies, and photography.  In addition to having a blog to share our experiences as we work overseas, I post my favorite photos I've taken.  I hope you enjoy!

Hi everyone, I'm Jenneka! We're glad you're here, reading our blog! As James said above, we will be serving God through Bible translation, and we can't wait to see what He does. We know we can't do this on our own, so we're excited to have you along, praying and following our story.

A little about me - I grew up on a farm, so love being outdoors whether it be camping, backpacking, or just taking a walk. I love spending time with my wonderful husband, friends and family. I like good old black and white movies, especially silents, and documentaries - basically anything which smacks of "old" :). I'm the Canadian half of our "cross-cultural" family, and still maintain that Smarties trump M&Ms!

What is Pioneer Bible Translators?

PBT is an organization that is committed to seeing the Scripture translated for people who do not yet have the Bible in their own language. Did you know that there are over 1900 languages that do not have any Scripture yet?  Jesus said, "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you." (Matthew 28:19).  We believe that having the Scriptures in a language that you understand and following what they say is crucial to being an effective disciple and having a thriving church.  Learn more about PBT at www.pioneerbible,org.
