The translation of the Gospel of Luke into Sea Island Creole is the only

part of Scripture so far published (by the American Bible Society, the

cost of which, as I recall, is one dollar plus postage). The Sea Island

Translation has been working for years on other portions of the New Tes-

tament, I understand, and it will not be too much longer before all is

finished. (Each verse must pass a fairly rigorous approval process by

native speakers.) This is the word I had as of about a year ago.



I purchased my copy by calling the ABS in New York City and giving them

a credit card number. Two copies for something like $2.70.



Hope this helps,



Michael Montgomery
