“I can’t imagine doing what we do without computers. It’s pretty vital.”
– Lisa Kappeler, Bible translator to the Uriay people of Papua New Guinea and translation consultant
How does IT fit into missions?
“I just can’t imagine the amount of time that was spent in making corrections that I do now with one button.”
Technology has transformed Lisa Kappeler’s ministry over her 11 years as a Bible translator among the Uriay people of Papua New Guinea and as a Bible translation consultant.
But it takes IT professionals behind the scenes to allow that “push of a button” to happen.
You, as an IT professional, can help missionaries everyday to:
- Learn a new language more quickly
- Understand a foreign culture
- Translate the Bible faster and accurately
- Produce Bible curriculum
- Develop literacy materials
- Communicate with consultants
- Equip the church
You can use your IT skills in missions in Canada or overseas as Security and Compliance Administrators, Data and Intelligence Analysts, Network and Systems Engineers, Hardware and Software Technicians, Software Programmers and Developers and Training Specialists and End-User Support.
Lisa concludes, “I can’t imagine doing what we do without computers. It’s pretty vital.”

Representative
We need an individual/couple that can dedicate themselves to the representation of NTM and the recruitment of missionaries among Paraguayan churches. There are a growing number of Paraguayan churches that are reaching out and becoming involved in missionary efforts. It is important that they be informed, educated, and given the opportunity of participation and involvement with NTM in Paraguay. This job would involve speaking in churches and conferences, meeting with local pastors and youth groups, the development of Spanish language (and possibly Guarani) materials for representation, and possibly some travel with pastors and/or prospective missionaries to tribal locations for the purpose of exposure and observation.

Church Planter
Missionaries will begin by being involved in culture and language acquisition. Upon completion of language study missionaries will develop Bible lessons and teach using the Chronological materials. Bible translation may or may not be necessary depending on this tribe's capacity for understanding the existing Guarani Bible. Discipleship of growing believers and training and discipleship of church leaders will also be the church planters responsibility. Responsibilities may also include the development of a literacy program.
