Spotlight is a daily 15 minute radio program that uses a special English method of broadcasting. This makes Spotlight easier for many people to understand, no matter where in the world they live.

In Ecuador, HCJB has been broadcasting Spotlight since 2001. We've had fabulous response from the program over the years. In fact, there are currently more than 4,770 listeners throughout Latin America who receive the scripts of the program by e-mail every week. This gives them an opportunity to hear the program and read along at the same time.

Here's an e-mail I received from Carlos, a listener here in Quito, after sending him the scripts for this week:

Thank you a lot for the e mail.

There have been awesome programs like the one about the museum of laziness, disappearing languages, fear....

It´s fabulous listening from you that in Japan a Toyota´s employee died of too much work. Yeah. That must really be widely told.

We (people who listen carefully to your program) appreciate your stories about people who are miles away: Middle East, Asia, Africa, and aren´t super stars, nor famous heroes. That´s meaningful not having programs related to Hollywood, Shakira, US fashions.

Tell us more about South America and Cuba.

Bye Bye

Cool, huh? We are so thankful for the Spotlight program that allows our radio stations to meet a very real need of our listeners. And as they improve their English, they also hear a message of eternal hope, the message of Jesus Christ.

Please pray for the Spotlight production team and please pray for our listeners as they struggle to learn English, but more so as they have an opportunity to hear about and give their lives to Jesus.
