Matt arrived in Mexico in February 2019. In January 2021, he married Ada Rázuri, a Peruvian Bible Translator also working in Mexico. He then joined her Mixtec language translation project. In 2025, God led them to the difficult decision of leaving the translation project. By His grace, they were able to distribute translations of Mark 1-6 and Jonah along with audio and video versions of both among the speakers of the language.
As of September 2026, Matt, Ada, and their new daughter Johanna are visiting ministry partners in the US before returning to Mexico to support Bible translation through consulting and administrative roles. They would welcome your prayers, your encouraging notes, and your financial partnership. Thank you!

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.
