Elvis & Sulee Tangko

Elvis and Sulee love living and serving in Cameroon. Their heart’s desire is to see that God’s Word is accessible to all people in a language that speaks to their heart. Scripture Engagement and Literacy are important aspects of the work of Bible translation.

As a Scripture Engagement Specialist, Elvis will work with language communities to create materials and train communities to engage with Scripture through media (videos, apps, audio), short stories, music, skits, Bible study materials, etc. Scripture Engagement combines Elvis's two greatest passions: Sharing God's Word & Technology/Media.

As National Literacy & Education Coordinator for SIL Cameroon, Sulee coordinates the literacy and multi-lingual education programs and projects nationwide, supervises personnel, and manages budgets. As an educator, the most exciting part of Sulee's job is working with literacy projects, which can include teacher training, curriculum development, writing workshops, technology training and more.

Please consider being a part of Elvis & Sulee's Wycliffe ministry with your prayers and financial gifts, partnering together to serve those who don't yet have God's Word in a language they can clearly understand.

Wycliffe Ministry Budget

Wycliffe establishes a Ministry Budget for its missionaries to reflect recurring expenses related to family factors and their geographic location of service. Giving to Wycliffe directly impacts missionaries’ 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 missionaries receive as “take-home pay” for their daily living expenses.

Launch Expense Account

Wycliffe establishes the Launch Expense Account for setup needs beyond recurring ministry and living expenses.

Examples of what these funds cover are training and orientation courses, airfare, visas, immunizations, language learning, work permits, house setup, vehicle, equipment purchases, shipping, etc.
