More on radio training in Africa

Emmanuel Ekpeh-Addrey was one of the very talented radio producers with us during the radio training in Accra, Ghana. After I got back from Africa, Emmanuel sent me the following message.

"APPRECIATION and GRATEFULNESS are the two words that I woke-up with this morning. The fact that you are so down to earth amazes me. Your simplicity blows my mind.

Like our Lord Jesus Christ came down from heaven to show us the way, you came to 'show' us the way in radio communication. Your all inclusive style of teaching is superb. I'm a better communicator now than before thanks to your impact made possible by the Holy Spirit."

What an incredible privilege to have shared the training experience with people like Emmanuel. Please pray for him and the others that took part in the training. They are all great communicators of a great God! May the Holy Spirit use them to impact the lives of their listeners.

Radio training in Sub-Saharan Africa

I am currently in Accra, the capital of Ghana in Western Africa. This is my first time to this continent, so it will be a great learning experience.

Together with Joseph Kebbie (with me in the photo), we will be conducting the first region-wide radio training for HCJB Global's SubSaharan Africa Region. Joseph is the training coordinator for the region and is also very involved in the radio planting aspect too.

We have folks joining us from Freetown, Sierra Leone and many different parts of Ghana: Tamale (north central), Bolgatanga (on the northern border with Burkina), Asin-Fosu, Assamankisi and of course the capital, Accra.

Praise God for this opportunity to share our experiences in radio training in Latin America with our ministry colleagues here in Western Africa. I am also very thankful for the partnership that this region shares with the media ministry of Theovision International.

Joseph and I welcome your prayers!
