WP – February 2021

The Portuguese – BR, narration of the Old Testament is coming along and we have made progress. We have finished the first 11 books and they are already online. Please go here to check the audio that has been recorded:

We received lots of invitations to cooperate with other sites, blogs and radio station, in order that our audio files may be used by them. We have granted permission, as usual, on the basis that our goal is to spread the Gospel, not to compete for audience. It is much better for the Gospel’s sake that the audio is spread in many different servers all over the world, than if it would be concentrated on few servers. Should something happen to our servers or our ministry, the work of the Lord, the broadcasting of His Word, will continue. Thus we welcome the copying and propagation of other websites, apps and blogs, based on ours or even copying our site. The fact is, our user base, averaging over 60,000 per day, are still there and our audio, averaging around 30 Terabytes per month, keeps up.

Our audio Bible Apps, with a user base of around 70,000 users, draw a considerable amount of audio data from our servers. We have 3 main audio Servers that remain pretty busy. We are glad that other ministries copy our audio to their own servers and generate their own traffic, to release ours from overloading.

This is the reality of the digital world we live in. There were the days, when we had the printed Bibles, which were heavy and bulky to ship or transport to the field. Now, we multiply the Word by the million with not much of a logistic burden. We believe, despite the dangers and the maleficent effects of the digital world, it is God’s design for us to be here, doing this, to engage, to use the means and resources available today, to bring the Word of God to every creature – just as commanded in Mark 16:15 and other scriptures.

Here are a few comments, received during February, at the Google Play Console of our Android Apps:

Africa is always present in our lives because we did, and do, invest lots of resources there. Our resources are mostly of the spiritual kind, with time, prayers and intervention in our field of intervention: supplying the Word of God. Audio Bible devices we produce are being used by thousands of people there. Recently a new shipment of 100 Bibles arrived in Uganda while the blind people ministry in Kenya continues to share the Gold of the Word. We are all blessed to be part of this.

The above caption means, roughly translated from Swahili: “Hello Mary, On behalf of Lydia Maithya I am grateful for the Audio Bible you gave her through George / Geofrey Musyoka. He overcame it by listening for a long time and that helped him to grow in faith. once again I say thank you. God bless you”

Mozambique, with the almost 600 thousand people displaced in the North, due to Islamic terrorist attacks, is in dire need. We are in contact with friends there who appeal to our prayers and solidarity. We have helped and continue to help with funds through the Catholic church there, which is pretty much in charge of feeding and taking care of the refugees.

Thank you for your support and prayers.
