Jerry & Beth Tucker

Jerry and Beth Tucker are retiring from Wycliffe Bible Translators, Inc., effective December 31, 2025. We thank the Lord for Jerry and Beth and their 30-year contribution to the work of Bible translation as they participated in a global movement of seeing Scripture translated for all people still waiting.

Upon joining Wycliffe in 1995, Jerry and Beth began their service as boarding home parents and teachers in the southern Philippines. After five years, they moved to the capital city of Manila, where they served in administration and as high school teachers at Faith Academy. In 2010, at the request of their one remaining parent, they returned to the U.S. to serve in staffing and member care roles, preparing new missionary families to serve overseas.

We want to express our deepest gratitude for your prayers, financial investment and encouragement for the Tuckers throughout the years. Your partnership has been a vital part of their successful ministry. We pray you have been encouraged to see the incredible ways God has moved around the world as people encounter Him through Scripture in a language and format they clearly understand, knowing that you have been a part of making that possible!

Jerry and Beth are retiring to Lake Forest, California. In their retirement, they look forward to spending time with family and friends, gardening, quilting and increased ministry opportunities in their local church and community. Please join us in prayer for Jerry and Beth as they make this major life and ministry transition. Thank you again for the significant role you’ve played in making their ministry possible and for your part in reaching all people with God's Word! We are grateful for your partnership in this Kingdom work.
