New Radio Program

This month marks the beginning of our ministry's new radio program, airing Tuesday through Saturday for an hour each morning and reaching beyond the immediate city to the watery interior of Porto de Moz. We are grateful for the generous donations we received during our trip to the States that make this program possible. Although we have a lot to learn about broadcasting, Railson seems to be a natural at it. After just the first week, he already mans the studio single-handedly! Please pray with us that this program will be instrumental in bringing the message of Christ and inspirational music to every home in our locality, and that more workers will soon be trained to help host the program.

Constru-Blessing

We continue to gather materials and personnel to mount construction outreaches in the city. Our first outreach was over the Easter weekend when we were able to lay the foundation for a family's new home. On that Sunday, we enjoyed a special time of fellowship with the family at a church breakfast celebration. In order to continue outreaches like these, we need more tools and finances, especially for the purchase of a vehicle. If you would like to help, send your donation to the address below, specifying your donation for "Gils-Constru-Blessing."
