Doug & Jo Haag serving with Wycliffe Bible Translators
Hello, we are Doug & Jo Haag.
We have served with Wycliffe Bible Translators for over 30 years. We can't imagine what life would be like without God's Word in our heart language. In the Bible we have God's love and His life, His will and His power—we have Himself!
We are committed to the vision to see people from every language understand and experience the God of the Bible.
When God wanted us to understand Him, He took on flesh (John 1:1) and learned our language. When God wanted the world to understand the Gospel, He broadcast it in their languages (Acts 2:1-11). When we speak the heart language, the nations pay special attention (Acts 22:2). Where there is no Scripture translation in the heart language, there is no reached people, no sustained movement, and no enduring church, yet, over 980* language communities do not have Scripture in a language they can read or understand. —Project42 *source: ProgressBible, Oct 1, 2024
When you compare where you came from with where you are today, does it make you shake your head in wonder? This has been our experience as we've followed the leading of the Holy Spirit in our lives and ministry. From Montana and Tennessee to Papua New Guinea, to Orlando, Guatemala and Togo, we could not have dreamt up the journey or the lessons learned along the way. Because of this, we feel uniquely called and qualified for our roles... for such a time as this!
