I just got an email from Jim and Shelley from Livin’ Our Dreams. They shared with me this great story about relationships and blogs that I want to share with you:
About a year ago an operator of two Christian Radio Stations in western KS contacted us. He found us on the site and we began communicating. Every so often we would get an encouraging email or note letting us know he had been praying for us.
One of the people groups we work with are the Kekchi and they have a radio ministry that reaches many unreached villages all over Petén. They needed some help repairing their equipment which we know nothing about. They needed a part that we could not find the normal route through google.
We contacted Bill who spoke to his radio engineer who found the part within 24 hours. A pastor in AR bought the part and it is in route to Guatemala to triple the coverage area of the Gospel in the indigenous tongue to people who don’t have any other chance to hear it.
Thank you so much for this site [Missionary-Blogs.com]. Just one small story of how God has used it to impact people we won’t meet until heaven.
Praise the Lord! Thanks to Shelley and Jim for sharing the story.
Here’s another post about connections made through blogging.
