Kirk and Suzie | Southeast Asia

Kirk and Suzie are Cooperative Baptist Fellowship field personnel serving among the Bisu people of Southeast Asia. For over 30 years, they have sought to testify to God’s power to transform lives through their work in literacy, Bible translation and advocacy.

The Bisu New Testament was published in October 2015—in written form, smartphone app, and downloadable audio. With these resources, some 15 Bisu individuals are bearing witness to Jesus Christ, have formed a church and are becoming a healing presence in their community.

Kirk and Suzie continue to work on a translation of the Old Testament and adapting the New Testament for related language groups in three countries. They are also involved in literacy and education projects for several other marginalized ethnic minority groups.
