Thanks given to the Beavons and to SIL

ASTRADHE (The ASSOCIATION FOR TRANSLATION, LITERACY PROGRAMS AND THE HOLISTIC DEVELOPPMENT OF THE HUMAN BEING) thanks SIL CAMEROON, that since decades has not stopped bringing its support for the development of the nzime language, through the linguistic research, the financial support for publications [in Nzime] and the training of the members of the Nzime community in various domains, [such as] Bible translation and literacy work. Today SIL Cameroon shows, through the financing of the publication of the transition primer and writers' handbook, that it constitutes an excellent partner in the interest of taking the Nzime people out of the state of illiteracy. We say "Thank you!" to SIL Cameroon and to all its personel who work for the edification of the Word of God and fight against underdevelopment in all its forms. This is why we say to the SIL that, God chose you as he chose Jonas to announce the Good News to Ninivah. All the languages that you support all across Cameroon are not your mother tongues. But your members by the force of Holy Spirit manage even to speak these languages. How wonderful is the work of God!
[Keith and Mary] Beavon are the instruments that God uses to accomplish his will within the Nzime community. At one time, this couple was absorbed by difficulties orchestrated by the devil while using certain members of the community koonzime. This couple always remained serene and occupied in the difficult task of the mission that they had to accomplish. Thank you. Our "thank you" does not express our joy. Our heart is filled with a deep joy. The transition primer that is printed today is the result of the efforts and ferocious engagement of the Beavons. May God bless them and may he fill them with his grace throughout their stay in Cameroon.
