HCJB Global News

Three Nepali broadcasters produce programs which are aired to their people via HCJB Australia’s shortwave service. Each of them has an amazing story to tell of how they came to love and believe in Jesus in the midst of communist influence, civil war and previous religion. Now they’re sharing their faith through radio. Read more in this month's newsletter.

HCJB Global Asia Pacific Prayer Hotline - May 2010 Print E-mail

Dear Prayer Partners,

“When I pray, You answer me; You encourage me by giving me the strength I need.  Every king in all the earth will give You thanks, O Lord, for all of them will hear Your words.  Yes, they will sing about the Lord’s ways, for the glory of the Lord is very great.”  Psalm 138:3-5  NLT

May you be encouraged today as you pray, that God, indeed answers prayer and that you are a part of getting His Word to the ends of the earth! Thank you
