Brooke Bateman's first language was Sign Language being born to a Deaf mother. God blessed her with Deaf parents and culture. She came to truly know the deep love and power of Christ at the age of 21. Since then, she has been pursuing God and loves to serve Him.
Recently married to husband Gasper, Brooke relocated from Romania to Slovenia and is serving remotely with the Romanian Sign Language team and in a support role as an interpreter for Sign Language Bible translation teams globally. This allows her to serve a variety of people and language groups in new contexts and as well as strengthening existing relationships within Deaf communities within Eurasia and Africa.
Please pray for her as she supports her Deaf husband in his work in planting a church among the Deaf in Slovenia. We long to see Deaf communities come to know Christ through the power of God and His Word in their heart language. To see entire Deaf families and communities transformed living our their purpose with joy and full trust in our almighty Savior!
Please pray for her language learning and to serve others with excellence, humility, grace and joy.

Wycliffe Ministry Budget
Wycliffe establishes a Ministry Budget for its members to reflect recurring expenses related to family factors and their geographic location of service. Giving to Wycliffe directly impacts members' ability to begin and remain in their assignment.
This monthly budget covers ministry-related expenses, insurance and retirement, social security and taxes, and Wycliffe administrative costs. The remainder is what the members receive as "take-home pay" for their daily living expenses.
