John & Marian VanderMeer

Currently serving the Democratic Republic of Congo with Wycliffe Bible Translators

John and Marian VanderMeer and their family, members of our church community here at Zion have been serving with Wycliffe Bible Translators in the Democratic Republic of the Congo for over 20 years. Together, they work with Wycliffe to help provide for the needs of the community, and to help ensure that they have access to the Bible in their native language so that they can read and listen to it! John’s recent work has him working to bring God’s word to people using many forms of new technology. While John and Marian are completing many projects from a home base in Ontario, John continues to travel back and forth to the Congo to help with translations, media projects and technology upgrades.
