New radio transmitter will provide greater coverage and greater impact.

Bolivia (MNN) — When lightning damaged their transmitter six months ago, the Horeb Bible Radio station in Bolivia borrowed a smaller transmitter in order to stay on the air.

But New Tribes Mission is excited that a larger, more powerful transmitter is finally on its way. The new transmitter will bring the station back up to full power and widen its broadcast coverage area. This week New Tribes Missionary and radio technician Bruce Johnson is returning to Bolivia with his family and the new equipment.

Horeb broadcasts in Spanish and several tribal languages, and the new transmitter will enable the station’s continued, far-reaching impact. There have been encouraging testimonies from several tribes that show the effectiveness of the radio ministry.

Praise God that all the necessary paperwork was completed in time for the Johnsons to take the transmitter with them. Pray for the continued ministry of both the radio station and the missionaries seeking to share Christ with people in Bolivia.
