Djibo Radio

Please continue to pray for Steve as he works on getting the Radio Station started in Djibo.

They have produced a provisional programme schedule. The paperwork is handed in, and they have started building a wall around the land they have acquired for the station. He has also had plans drawn up for theradio station itself, using the woodless construction model that we used for some of the houses in Gorom.

The radio station dossier is now in the hands of those who will make the decision as to whether they get the right to broadcast. It will be a great means of bringing God's blessing to the sahel region around Djibo. Please pray that God opens the way. Thank you.

The photos show Steve recording local music. The top photo is a griot, who recites genealogies to the accompaniement of the traditional Fulani one-stringed guitar. The bottom photos show him recording Aisata and friends singing as they pound the millet, then playing back the recording to Aisata.
