This position is being filled by Marie Lusted, retired after 49 years of service in November 2004. Soon after, she returned to Ethiopia to continue her work translating the Bible into Anuak, this time as a long-term volunteer. Marie, known to most as "Breezy," has been interested in Bible translation since 1957. While working as a nurse at the Pokwo and Gilo clinics in Ethiopia, she got involved in the mission's literature program, helping proofread the New Testament in Anuak. While her primary work is translation, Marie's faith also compels her to advocate for the human rights of the Anuak people and the care of orphans. |
