WIBG EXPANDS WIBG 1020AM Life Radio's big signal can be heard clearly in 4 states, including all of South Jersey. A family radio station, it now has a growing lineup of local talk radio programs: Harry Hurley in the Morning, Monday - Friday 7 a.m. to 11 a.m.; Josh Hennig's Drive Time Show, Monday through Friday, 3 to 5 p.m.; Dan Klein's South Jersey Insider Radio Show, Saturday, 1 to 3 p.m.; Chuck Betson's The Betson Connection, Saturday, 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Sunday has a lineup of Christian broadcasts, America's Silent Ambassadors, hosted by yours truly, airing from 2 to 2:30 p.m. The program now includes home mission ministries.

SUNDAY'S GUEST Rev. Kwame Rubadiri, Missions Director of the Second Baptist Church in Atlantic City, will repeat his much acclaimed December 3, 2006 program on WIBG. Reverend Kwame was born in Malawi, Africa, educated in Uganda, and worked extensively in Kenya and other African countries. He has been in the U.S. for 10 years, is extremely knowledgeable of the needs in Africa, and shares priceless information for those interested in doing work there.

PRAISE THE LORD! Pastor Kyle Huber and Jeff Galupo, of Greentree Church, are currently in Belarus. Wrote Pastor Kyle in his latest e-mail: "Throughout this trip my time is scheduled more toward spending time in meeting with pastors instead of preaching in villages as in past years. .....I believe this is a more strategic use of my limited time in Belarus, and it will have a far wider effect." Please keep them in your prayers that God will bless their efforts and keep them safe and well. Praise!

Dottie Marketto, who recently returned from her short-term mission trip to India, reported that last Sunday, January 21, the Vineland Christian & Missionary Alliance held a successful missions fair, where everyone learned about upcoming summer missions projects. There will be a followup this week for those who could not attend last Sunday. E-mail her: darya52@msn.com Praise!

On January 22, Richard Walton of SEND International, sent New Year Greetings from United Theological Faculty - Bulgarian Evangelical Theological Institute. Wrote Richard Walton: I am teaching Missions these first two weeks here in Sofia and will go to Varna on February 4 to teach the same course in the program there. I have 11 first and second year students who are eager to learn and are participating with a lively spirit in the classes." Please keep him in your prayers. Praise!

PLEASE PRAY for Renee Boyd and her family. Renee's son, Patrick, 44, was killed in a fiery accident this week in Chicago. She returned home to attend his funeral, which was held yesterday. You will recall that Renee is my friend, who is on Mike Clark's staff at Casa Para Niños Aleluya in Guatemala. Mike described her as a Godly woman, a vital part of their ministry.

Also, please pray for Lisa Whitaker, of YWAM, who returns to the mission field this coming week. Please also pray for healing for her Mom, Doris.
