Courtney says, for the 5 million Jamaican Patois speakers worldwide, this means ‘We are validated. God has come down to us. He speaks to us in the language we think and feel in and that touches us at the deepest level.’

‘It’s going to be exciting to see how the Patois New Testament impacts the Caribbean community.’ Bishop Wayne Malcolm, Christian Life City church

‘I’m proud of my heritage and now I have this medium to listen to God’s Word, I will definitely listen to it over again and again.’ Tanesha Westcarr (23)
