Dwight & Margaret Hartzler

serving with SIL

I joined SIL in 1971 and Margaret joined in 1972 right after we got married. We have been working in Papua, Indonesia since 1975. Margaret was became a member of the City Tabernacle in 1965 and I suppose I became a City Tabernacle in-law when we got married.

Presently Margaret is serving as director of Hillcrest International School where practically all the MKs in this area attend.

I (Dwight) am primarily occupied as the translation coordinator for Papua and do translation checking and consulting for the various other SIL translation teams that are working here in Papua. I also still do some work with the Sentani people for whom we completed a translation in 1999.

Jenny Austin
serving with Wycliffe Bible Translators

I joined Wycliffe in 1984, serving in Papua New Guinea as a linguistic worker and in various support roles including Pacific Orientation Course staff worker, tutor to national translators, Technical Studies Department staff, and writer in SIL PNG’s media department. I then worked in the media department of our national centre in Melbourne as a writer for two years. When I moved to Brisbane, I joined the Tabernacle on 3rd January 1993, and served in the choir and on the missionary committee. I was commissioned by the Tabernacle on 27th November 1994 to work with the regional team in the Brisbane Wycliffe office. I was there for nearly 10 years before moving back to the national centre in 2003 to take up my current role as Assignments Coordinator.
