North Korea is one of the most dangerous places to be a believer.  The regime is oppressive, and depravation is a lifestyle.  The government censors communications  via the web, satellite radio and smart phone.  However, most of the people  are locked in the past and have access only to short wave radio.  The miracle of  “turning all to good”  is that short wave radio cannot    be censored.  It is an open door to freely preach the great  gospel of Jesus unhindered!

North Koreans who have fled the country have shared that families gather to listen in the late hours of the night and early hours of the morning  to hear news of the outside world.   Many  North Korean defectors have shared it was through short wave radio that they heard of Jesus.  We hear His call to minister to these dear ones, so we go forth. We invite you to go forth with us.  Please pray the lost will find Jesus and the believers will receive great strength.

Voice of the Martyrs reported a significant increase in persecution in Hong Kong and China,      the recent China ban on purchasing Bibles and the increased censorship of the internet.  An increase in tension in Taiwan was also reported. We prayed for a way to share His love and salvation.  Gratefully, a door open via A.M. radio to broadcast into all 3 countries in the cities and rural villages.  May many be drawn to receive the comfort of Jesus and fellow believers.

Radio  Emmanuel, a F.M. station  reaching these countries was seeking more ministries to pour into these countries.  While there are some churches in these areas, the station was seeking those to call the church into fullness and oneness, and to share the grace of the Gospel with unbeleivers form a variety of backgrounds.  Our joy to partner with them!
