Last Translation Check DONE!

THE CHECK: Final Update
Thanks to everyone for praying with us.

The consultant check of Matthew and 2 Corinthians is DONE! This was our last consultant check and so quite an exciting milestone to reach.

SUCCESS
We covered an ambitious amount of material (1,400 verses) with time to spare at the end. Thanks to consultant JJ for his help this time around.

Everything checked out very well – it was all clearly understood and we found no major issues or problems to fix.  We did think of a few small improvements to make here and there.

MIRACLES
Seriously. No electrical power outages for a week and a half (yes, that’s a miracle here).

None of us doing the check got sick. Lini’s son Elmer quickly recovered once he got on antibiotics. Thanks for all who prayed for little Elmer.

Bill felt a cold coming on the day AFTER the check.

WHAT’S NEXT?
Now we have some post-check follow-up to do, plus ongoing revision of older material, formatting, adding of footnotes and cross-references, proofreading, etc.

Then we will be doing typesetting in the city of Davao on the island of Mindanao for the whole month of September.

After that, we pack up and head to San Diego to spend time with family and friends while waiting for the Palawano New Testaments to be printed!

Thank the Lord with us, and please pray for:

  1. Health and energy in these last weeks
  2. Good progress on final revisions

Reaching Palawanos together with you,

-Bill and Donna
