Wycliffe and SIL´s Visit

Wycliffe Bible Translators and SIL (Summer Institute of Linguistics) came to El Salvador for a meeting. While they were here they were able to visit our team and see the process for Bible Translation in Sign Language.

The did interviews with myself and two of our Deaf team members, Jose Eduardo and Grisel.


We explained to them every aspect of the process. Beginning with examining the text, discussing the best way to sign it so that all Deaf can understand.

Finding pictures, maps or illustrations to go along with the text.




Then actually going to the filming of the story. We also have to take pictures for the Sign Language Diccionary. It´s a lot of hard work.






Only a few of the team were able to come on Saturday.
The rest of the team we met with and shared our vision for TBLESSA, Translation of the Bible in LESSA.

I love how God joined these two groups together. We will be able to use their experience in Bible Translation to help us.
