    • 75% of the music library was lost to the fire, as were all the laptops needed for programing and scheduling.
    • SIM LIBERIA - There is need for a financial manager for ELWA (Eternal Love Winning Africa), a Christian Radio consultant, and a general physician for the ELWA hospital. Pray that the Lord will touch the hearts of individuals to respond to these needs and give two or more years to ministry in Liberia.You can contact SIM-Liberia at Liberia.director@sim.org.
    • HCJB has one TB1000 1000 watt (1kw) shortwave transmitter available immediately that is already configured to be able to transmit on the 4760Mhz frequency. There is no possibility of anything else before October because of a large back order on the primary output transistors. The transmitter is about $7000 plus shipping.

    The Need for EMA+USA Scholarships

    We currently have 43 scholarship students. We still have a long list of those needing our help, but we are confident that God will supply our needs. Can you commit to $20 a month so that one of these young people can attend school?

    Every gift makes a difference, large or small. Will you pray with us that God will continue to provide what is needed for these children who have lost so much with the effects of the war, and continue to struggle with daily needs like food and clothing?
