Welcome to www.michaelandmeganbarton.com. This website exists to
provide you with information and resources about the ministry of Bible
Translation. We are part of an organization called Pioneer Bible
Translators (PBT). You will find their logo at the bottom of this
page (click on the logo below to visit their website). PBT has the
following mission and vision:
Mission: Pioneer Bible Translators exists
to disciple the Bible-less, mobilizing God’s people to provide
enduring access to God’s Word.
Vision: Transformed lives through God’s
Word in every language.
Michael
and Megan are currently missionaries in East Africa. Although 126
languages are spoken in the country we are in, most people speak a bit of
Swahili. PBT is currently translating for 15 of languages and hoping
to add more in the near future. Here are some current prayer
requests.
Please pray
that God will provide for our support needs. We still currently
have commitments for only 86% (updated 7/12/2010) of our budget. At
this amount we are limited in the things we can accomplish in
our ministry.
Michael and Megan are currently
finishing up with training 2010! This has been a great
experience in getting to know our national coworkers a bit
better. It has been a busy schedule so we are anxious to
have a little rest. Please pray we would be able to rest.
Please pray for the people we
will be working with in the EAB. We are often reminded that it is God who works in the hearts of people and we
should try to cooperate with what God is already doing.
Please pray for our physical and
spiritual protection. Michael is currently struggling with
hives which is probably the result of transition stress and the
rainy season here.
Look
around our site to find out more about PBT or ourselves. We are
happy that you have visited! Please send us an email with any
questions or comments you might have. You can find our email addresses and other contact information on the
