SUMMER INSTITUTE OF LINGUISTICS INTERNATIONAL TAKES PART IN FESTIVAL |
Summer Institute of Linguistics International, a faith-based nonprofit organization, will be holding various activities in the Festival of Pacific Arts over the next two weeks.
The institute has been working with Solomon Islands Translation Advisory Group, SITAG, overs the years with Solomon Islands Christian Association to among other things translate the New Testament Bible into various languages in the country. Martha Martzke who had worked with SITAG for some years and who had returned to the US is here in Honiara with a group to be part of the festival. Mrs Matzke says the group will also hold a series of workshops including Arts for a Better Future during the festival. Summer Institute of Linguistics International’s service with minority communities is motivated by the belief that all people are created in the image of God, and that languages and cultures are part of the richness of God’s creation. |
