email:grace_adjekum@sil.org

After many years of serving Bible translation work in her home country of Ghana, Grace Adjekum moved to London in 2000 to promote Bible Translation among the African and Caribbean churches in the UK. In 2004 she began making plans to return home to Ghana and resume work there but decided that before leaving the UK, she should undergo knee replacement surgery. Her doctors agreed. Grace’s procedure went as scheduled, but not as planned. “Something” happened during the surgery which left Grace effectively paralyzed from the waist down.

Now, after years of recovery and physical therapy, Grace remains in a wheelchair, but has resumed work helping to administer the Wycliffe Training Program in London. Despite her very difficult circumstances, Grace pushes on through her physical struggles, always toward her Savior, knowing that He has much Kingdom work for her to accomplish.

Grace's birthday is Oct. 10th
