Project Goals and Activities Planned for the next Three Months
The following are scheduled for the next three months:
1. Local Launch of Luuk Buk Project. This includes:
• Further media promotion of the project
• Breakfast with heads of denominations and leaders of major para-church organisations on 28th July
• A launch in a Church on the Sunday afternoon of each Sunday in August
• Lecture at the University of the West Indies (early September)
(We’ll need to make more copies of the audio text for the launch.)
2. Complete the 2nd draft for John, Ephesians, Colossians, Philippians and Revelation.
3. Continue translating Acts and 2 Corinthians.
4. Submit 2nd drafts to the Jamaican Language Unit of the University of the West Indies for the commencement of
linguistic review.

“I am loving the Patois or Jamiekan Gospel of Luke. To hear my religious text, the Bible, in my mother tongue is
so significant to me. I am so grateful I cannot fully express it. It means I can engage with the words of Jesus at a
much deeper level. I look forward to the rest of the Bible being translated in the same way. I wish the Bible Society
of the West Indies all the best in their endeavours. My only criticism is that the music is a little cheesy but the tone
and the music of the language outweighs this small niggle.
Prayer Requests:
1. Thank God for the meeting with FCBH. Pray for guidance as we look into the possibilities of a partnership.
2. Praise God for the success of the UK launch of Luuk Buk. Pray for equal success in the remaining launches.
Our hope in planning these launches is that they will serve as a precursor to our larger goal of making the
Scriptures available to Jamaicans (at home and in the Diaspora) in their mother tongue, and as a forerunner
to the release of the entire New Testament in 2010.
3. Praise God for having answered your prayers on behalf of our Translation Consultant. His retirement papers
have now being sorted. Now, he is able to give more time to the project.
4. Pray for Jamaica, particularly our government, the security forces and those directly affected by the recent
clash between the security forces and criminal elements.
