Honoring John Banker |
Today we lift up the life and passing of John Banker who with his wife Betty, faithfully devoted 50 years of their lives translating the Bible into the Bahnar language in Viet Nam. John and Betty were in Viet Nam as recently as Fall of 2011 conducting Bible translation workshops.
He went through the Gates of Splendor yesterday evening surrounded by family while listening to his wife of over 50 years, sing sweet hymns in her beautiful clear voice.
John Banker was the father and father in law of Faith Artists founding Board members Tom and Melinda Banker. Our prayers are with this family.
