Hi Valerie and listmembers,

well since the pope comes from Germany it might be a good idea to present
the Lord's Prayer, also known as the Our Father or Pater noster, in
GebaerdenSchrift - What do you think? Another demonstration of your
wonderful invention ...from another country.

You can add it to your package if you want to - smile!

Stefan ;-)

Betreff: [sw-l] Vatican requested 10 SignWriting books...Gospel John in ASL

SignWriting List
November 16, 2009

The Vatican requested 10 copies of our Gospel According to John books,  
written in ASL...

I print the books, one at a time here, and laminate the covers, and  
bind the books myself. At the time of the Vatican's request, I only  
had 9 copies to send, so I sent them 9 copies.

I am hoping that the 9 Gospel John books, in ASL, will arrive in time,  
and be distributed to participants at a conference being held at the  
Vatican, related to Deaf people in the Catholic Church, Nov  
19-21st...this week...

Maria Azzopardi Galea and Dr. Marie Alexander, from Malta, will be  
attending the conference at the Vatican. They will bring portions of  
the Bible written in Maltese Sign Language too...plus some of our ASL  
books...thank you for all you are doing in Malta...smile...

So this will be an important conference, demonstrating that the Bible  
can be written in sign languages now...I am so curious to hear of the  
reaction from other participants...I can imagine this will be a new  
idea to them...

Val ;-)
