The Córdovas are facilitating a team of Zapotecs from San Francisco Ozolotepec (Oaxaca, Mexico) who are translating Scriptures into their heart language, Zapotec. God has provided gifted Zapotecs to work on Bible translation and production of literacy materials during the past 26 years. The Zapotec New Testament is headed into typesetting (September 2026) to prepare it for print publication. Old Testament books are being translated as well, and literacy clubs are in the process of being formed. The local believers have a great desire to have God's Word in Zapotec and have fully supported the translation project, with the involvement of people from 3 different local churches.
The Córdovas have two children: Sara (at university in the U.S.) and Daniel (studying high school at Oaxaca Christian School). Their family is thankful for the many partners in this Wycliffe ministry. We invite you to join their Wycliffe ministry team by becoming a prayer and financial partner.

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.
