BEV & DONNA PREATER

Papua New Guinea

Bev and Donna are great friends from Thunder Bay who serve with Wycliffe Bible Translators.  They live in this large island nation that borders Indonesia, just north of Australia.  Bev works as a helicopter and airplane pilot, as well as a mechanic for the aircraft.  He travels throughout the region serving the needs of the people and the Wycliffe translators.  Donna lends her abilities as a nurse to the needs of the people where they live.

 

Bev and Donna have currently served with Wycliffe for 19 years and while their youngest daughter, Ellie, is still with them in Papua New Guinea, their two oldest, Beverly and Robbie are now in Canada attending university.

 

You can get a sense of the work that Bev is involved with and the land where they live from this video clip that comes from Wycliffe:
