BOLIVIA: Sharing the Gospel in Isolated Villages

Source: Pioneers, April 4, 2018

In 2004, Greg and Alex, a father-son team working in Bolivia, came across a man on the road who was holding a little, broken radio. He pleaded with them, “Fix it, it’s my life!” They helped him get the radio repaired and realized it was tuned to a radio station broadcasting in his native language, Quechua.

Greg and Alex had been searching for a way to share the gospel with the people of isolated villages cut off from the rest of civilization during the rainy season. They were amazed to find the radios were made in their native Canada. Since then, they raised funds to purchase and distribute radios that include a Quechua audio translation of the Bible.
