How many people here are involved in the EPP? I was thinking of offering any kind of service that they may need.

(I was just wondering if they could use a regular-joe like me.)

'Cuz, I totally support the project.

Thanks,

Your support is greatly appreciated, brother! I have worked for the EPP off and on for a number of years. I am sure they can use your services. Let me know if you have any questions. Blessings!

Here's a quick update for any interested.

After a few emails, I have agreed to help proof-read some material. My first assignment is Wilhelmus a Brakel's "The Christian's Reasonable Service" Volume 2.

And... I've already started working on it. This book is HUGE! But I'm immensely excited!

(And I get to use a hot-pink pen!) How cool is that?

cool - a Brakel is great

I'm wondering - wasn't there another project (for print, I thought, rather then electronic media) that was also advertised here on the PB? I know I was directed to some webpage where they showed samples of scanned copy for transcription - seemed to me there were 3 different levels of difficulty, from printed material to manuscript letters. Anyway, if anyone knows anything about what I'm talking about, I'd appreciate a reminder/pointer.

I am sure you will be blessed by this project. I did volume 1 and it was a very spiritually rewarding experience for me. Enjoy, brother!

It was something I worked on off-and-on for about 3 months. I'm sure it can be done faster (or slower) depending on one's schedule.
