The double dedication of the Wamey New Testament in Guinea and Senegal at the turn of the year represents over 30 years of translation work by Wycliffe Bible Translators and SIL Senegal.
The New Testament is available in both print and audio forms, and has been enthusiastically received, with people responding positively to the message during the translation process.
The dedications took place in Ourous, Guinea, the Wamey homeland, and in Tambacounda, Senegal, for the diaspora. With the help of advertising via WhatsApp and Facebook, each dedication attracted about 500 people, including Wamey priests, bus-loads of people from local towns, and local and international visitors. There were speeches, songs and dancing. The dedications represent the culmination of over 30 years of effort.
