Portions of the Book of Common Prayer in Karamojong.
London: Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge, 1957.


Karamojong is a Nilo-Saharan language spoken mainly in northeastern Uganda, but also in neighboring Kenya and South Sudan.

Church of England missionary activity in what is now Uganda began in 1877 under the auspices of the Church Missionary Society. The Diocese of Uganda was erected in 1897; it was followed by the Province of Uganda, Rwanda and Burundi (1961-1980). Today, the Province of the Church of Uganda has twenty-seven dioceses using many translations of the Book of Common Prayer.

David Griffiths identifies this translation as 76:1 (under KARIMOJONG, Uganda, East Africa; also Akaramajo, Akaramajong, Akaromojong, Karamojo) in The Bibliography of the Book of Common Prayer 1549-1999 (London: The British Library; New Castle, Delaware: Oak Knoll Press, 2002). Earlier Anglican liturgical translations into Karamojong—neither listed in Griffiths—include one from the Bible Churchmen's Missionary Society (1930), and one by the Society for the Promotion of Christian Knowledge (1933).

This text was digitized in 2013 by Richard Mammana from a personal copy.
