Missionaries/Bible Translators Buck Employment Trend

As the adage goes, “There is bad news and good news…which do you want first?”  Okay, first the bad news…

The number of unemployed persons (14.7 million) and the unemployment rate (9.5 percent) were little changed in June. Since the start of the recession in December 2007, the number of unemployed persons has increased by 7.2 million, and the unemployment rate has risen by 4.6 percentage points. (Source: Bureau of Labor Statistics, July 2, 2009)  According to Reuters, the White House expects unemployment rate to climb to 10% in next two to three months. Average weekly hours came in at a slightly worse-than-expected 33.0. Since hours often lead payrolls and employers are cutting back hours suggests that hiring remains a long ways off, which will damper consumer spending and hopes of a consumer-led economic recovery.

Now for the good news…

Wycliffe Bible Translators, the world’s largest organization of its kind, is looking for workers with a range of skills to assist in the translation of the scriptures into the last remaining languages.

“Of course, a large number will go into translation,” said Chuck Michaels of Wycliffe to Mission Network News. “But for every translator team we send out we need three support personnel: people who are pilots, IT personnel, teachers that will teach missionary children, managers that will help us in our administrative work, government relations officers, and a whole host of other areas.”

The Bible translation organization estimates that 25,000 more workers are needed over a period of 10 years for its Vision 2025 effort that seeks to start translation in every language by the year 2025. Wycliffe aims to recruit 7,000 people from the U.S.

Some 200 million people, making up a third of the world’s language groups, still do not have the Bbile in their own “heart language.”

The goal of Wycliffe’s Last Languages Campaign is to provide literacy and life-saving health information along with the Bible to all the world’s small language groups in need of language development by 2025.

Besides Wycliffe, other mission organizations have also referenced the troubled economy in their missionary recruitment efforts. World Gospel Mission president recently reported that “the job market for missionaries has never been brighter.”  (Source: The Christian Post)
