Dan and Sarah served full-time with Wycliffe Bible Translators and SIL International from 2007 before joining DOOR in 2017. They worked for several years in language survey, working with deaf communities in Ecuador, Portugal, Romania and Italy. They also have supported sign language translation projects in Eurasia in several ways, including technical support for video editing and studios and project setup and planning. Dan and Sarah have also spent several summers on teaching staff at SIL International’s linguistics program at the University of North Dakota. They hold master’s degrees in applied linguistics.

Dan coordinates DOOR’s US based technology infrastructure and international language survey efforts, as well as maintaining DOOR’s language and projects databases. Sarah works part-time supporting language survey, and is a full-time mom to Ezra, who loves people and enjoys all the travel.

Your financial partnership with Dan and Sarah will provide critical support and resources for sign language Bible translation and Deaf church planting projects worldwide. Please pray about how you might partner with them in prayer, encouragement, and financial giving.
