    84 | Translating the Needs of their Own Family: Andy and Mary Ellen's stories from Russia and Kyrgyzstan

    Our guests today are Andy and Mary Ellen Faust, Canadian Americans who have worked with a mission organization focused on Bible translating for over 20 years.

    Welcome back to Part 2 of our interview with Marie-Cécile Collomp, an independent education consultant originally from France.
