Introduction

This translation of portions of the Book of Common Prayer into Dholuo was prepared by members of the Church Missionary Society. Dholuo, also known as Nilotic Kavirondo or Luo, is a Nilo-Saharan language used in Kenya, Tanzania, and in diaspora. It was the ancestral language of the paternal family of Barack Obama. The State Prayers include intercessions for George V as monarch of the Colony and Protectorate of Kenya (the office was abolished in 1963).

This text is identified as No. 92:2 in David Griffiths's Bibliography of the Book of Common Prayer 1549-1999 (London: The British Library; New Castle, Delaware: Oak Knoll Press, 2002). It was digitized in 2019 by Richard Mammana from a personal copy.
