Could you please provide the phone number (or website if they have one) for the Mar Gewargis Church in Chicago. I am also looking for an Aramaic OT with the Swadaya script and eastern vowels (not Neo-Assyrian). I have one by Wipf and Stock but the writing is just too small. I've also contacted Dean Dana to see if he knew where to get one. He didn't know.
Thanks a lot! <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/happy.gif" alt="" title="Happy" /><!-- s -->

Hi John,
The number to Mar Gewargis is: (773) 465-4777
If you call on Sunday, between 11am - 1pm Central time, ask for the "Beth-Deshna" (giftshop), and they will transfer you. Ask them for the NT ancient tongue.
I have to stop over there and pick up a bunch of copies for Dean Dana because I think he has a long waiting list for these on his website.

Check them out, they may have some stock.
