The concert was moved this week at the last minute to a different venue &#8211; pray that all attendees would have heard by tonight (7.30 p.m. GMT)! <\/p>\n<p>The attendees will all receive a couple of resources I had a hand in &#8211; the first is the Wolof scripture calendar I typeset each year from the content put together by my amazing WEC colleague Dirka. <\/p>\n<p>The second is a Christmas booklet that contains the first two chapters each of Luke and Matthew &#8211; the Christmas story &#8211; with an endsheet with prophecies about Jesus and where the full Wolof Bible will be available from first part of next year. Click on the cover below to download the pdf if you want to take a look. The Bible text layout is identical to the full Bible &#8211; I just pulled the pages out of the original file. The cover design is an alteration of the Wolof Bible cover designed by our colleague Ruth W &#8211; I recolored it and changed the title for this booklet.
