Nepal: HCJB installs new radio station

Written by Admin 2 24 Jul 2010

Local volunteers spent months building, connecting electricity, and finishing groundwork all for one big project. A third HCJB Global FM radio station which has finally been opened in Nepal. The new station has a range that should enable it to reach roughly 200,000 people with its broadcasts. This is an especially welcome feat in an area which, according to HCJB, has ‘few Christians and even fewer churches.’ The introduction of democracy in the country provided a host of opportunities for HCJB partnerships in Nepal. In 2009, HCJB supplied equipment, installation, and training to put its first two partner stations in motion in Nepal. The new station has aroused excitement among local Christians, 11 of whom volunteered for on-air training. HCJB's Nepali partner who initiated this station hopes to plant churches now that the station has been set up.

Praise: God for this wonderful news and the opportunities that it will bring. (Is.42:7)
