Change of Ministry

Greetings in the Lord’s name. Our hearts are full of gratitude for your participation in prayer for our family.

After having served the last twelve years as a South East Regional Representative, we are now changing ministries to work full time with the Brazilian NTM translation team. Our new department is called the Portuguese Language Resource. Since 1989 I have been involved in this work “on the side.” Just recently the main series that we translated in the early 90’s has been revised, so we hope to see this new series done for our Brazilian co-laborers. There are also hundreds of documents in English that will make the work of tribal church planting so much easier for the Portuguese speaker. So, we are back to helping full time the Brazilian missionaries.

Although we will continue to live here in Knoxville, our time in churches and colleges will be diminished but we will still have the same objective: Finding and encouraging folks to live wholeheartedly to reach the people groups who have never understood the message of the Word of God. We are so thankful to the Lord for the opportunity we have had of being a Representative.

The Lord has supplied once again for our June trip to Brazil. Gwen and I will care for my mom, and we hope to do a lot of corrections on the Volumes I and 2 (730 pages) of the series mentioned above. We would surely appreciate your intercession before the Lord as we do these two “things” that are always requiring the Lord’s wisdom and supply of health.

Yours in Christ Jesus,
Calvin and Gwen Taylor
