      Johannes and Sharon Merz are social anthropologists and work for a faith based development organisation. They are based in the Atacora region, Northwest Benin. Around 350,000 people live here and speak nine different languages. Sharon and Johannes’ aim is to understand the local cultures and societies in order to facilitate the work of Bible translation and mother tongue literacy. They have the following hopes:
      ▪ That, by assisting the work of literacy and Bible translation through anthropology, mother tongue literature will communicate directly and clearly to the people.
      ▪ That the churches will be able to safeguard the people's cultural identity as well as being deeply rooted in the Bible.
      ▪ To see the local Church and community empowered to take on the task of literacy and Bible translation.

      The Greatheads - We are currently living in Kampala/Uganda and work with World Vision incluing helping internally displaced people re-establish their homes, farms and communities in northern Uganda following many years of conflict with the Lords Resistance Army (LRA). As child soldiers escape we have a rehabilitation centre to help them to re-integrate into their home communities. We also have programs to develop clean water sources, simple feeder roads, fields and school rooms and teacher housing in return areas. In the east of the country we work with a pastoralist community that is extremely poor and stuck in a cycle of violence. Here we are doing food for work activities to help them restore the environment and improve grazing and crop cultivation. HIV and AIDS continues to be a problem in Uganda with a resurgence of infections.  As a family we are active members and part of the leadership of Kampala International Church. We meet at the school where our daughter Emily attends. We helped plant this congregation in February 2010 and we now have a regular attendance of 100.
