Congo: Orthodox radio!

Congo Orthodox radio!
(Orthodox Missionary Fraternity) - Dear brothers in Christ,

A few months ago your noble Fraternity offered us 3,000 euros for the completion of the amount required in order to have the antenna of our radio station at Kolwezi, "The Voice of Orthodoxy", installed.

This installation was absolutely necessary for the proper operation of the station on a daily basis.

We herewith want to inform you that the relevant works have been completed and the station has already started regular broadcasting, from 6 to 9 am and from 5 to 9 pm daily, within a radius of 60 km.

Our devout brothers' mind is at rest now, and they call us in order to inform us that our signal and our Orthodox emissions are heard in their region as well. What's more, it is not only the Orthodox brothers that listen to our program but also the heterodox. At this point we should mention that the emissions are of catechetical nature. Through them, we are trying to explain the main principles and doctrines of our holy faith in simple and easy to understand words.

The operation of a radio station will strengthen and promote our missionary work, as so wisely His Grace the current Bishop Ignatius of Pentapolis had pointed out, and urged us to create it.

We are grateful to you for your generous offer and we would like to thank you wholeheartedly for that. May God give you strength.

Wishing in the Lord,
†Meletios of Katanga
