From a dream of becoming an economist to finding her calling in education, Minda's journey has been anything but easy. Born in Maluku, Indonesia, conflict disrupted her studies, leading her to Jakarta, where she faced even more obstacles. But a shift in perspective came when she witnessed the passion for learning in others. Her work with SIL in multilingual education and early childhood literacy became her life’s mission. Now, with a scholarship to pursue a Master’s in Education Technology, Minda is determined to apply new knowledge to the communities she serves. Minda says she feels like she had been granted "a dream come true beyond her imagination,” and she’s just getting started. ?? Read her story: https://ow.ly/KPfE50U9Gm8

With the help of innovative technology, Bible translation time has been cut down dramatically and Quechua speakers are finally able to engage with long-awaited scripture in the language they understand deeply! The opportunity to listen and learn in their own language has completely transformed the depth of people’s understanding.
