Abby,

Karl works to facilitate Bible translation via his role with the Global Technology Information Services Team at JAARS. He is currently working with Wycliffe.

JAARS [Jungle Aviation and Radio Service] Karl, 1 of 600 employees at the NC base, is a pilot and has worked overseas in Kenya

and Papua New Guinea. He continues to help in the aviation

department stateside to maintain his skills.

Karl was a pilot missionary in Kenya and Papua New

Guinea, but had to return to the US because of health problems. However, right

now he is doing okay!

JAARS assists over 100 Bible translating organizations

around the world in 5 areas: Aviation, Land transportation,

Water Transportation, Information Technology (IT)

and Media. They are constantly working with translators to improve

support— these services are essential to Bible translators

around the world.

Karl and his son, Warren, “a mountain goat,” have been hiking the

Appalachian Mountain trail together.

Johanna, with admiring brother, Warren, is still in high school and very interested

in horses. She works at 3 different stables, some for pay and some for

lessons. Please pray for increased pay and God’s will for direction in her life,

especially after graduation. Horses? Or something else?
