Broadcasting Hope

I had the chance to meet with some lovely people today. I visited an organization that broadcast programs on the radio into rural areas of this region. They create programs that address social issues of the day. I am personally working with the women's initiatives department.

This small crew of precious ladies writes, edits and performs their own programs. They deal with a variety of issues that women in society face such as violence, abuse, female infanticide and human trafficking. The particular program I helped with today was a fictitious story based on truth about a young girl being forced to have an abortion by her family. The reason? The girl was pregnant with a girl child..not the favored boy. Sex ratios are way out of whack here and organizations like these are trying to combat the problem one radio broadcast at a time.

I went in with the plan to encourage them and train them in storytelling techniques. But actually, I was the one who walked away with a bigger blessing. State of the art technology? No. Sincere hearts wanting to impact the darkness? A million times yes. It was my honor to encourage these dear ladies who have a heart for our Father.

Please lift up these ladies as they continue in their work. If you are interested in helping them or would like to learn more, please contact me
