A total of 56 listeners wrote to us in June 2021 through letters and email. I must confess that this is the most we have received from our listeners who wrote, expressing the joy from listening to African Pathways programs. Thank you so much. We are going to mention a few of you by name in this newsletter. Thank you to David Ansell from Horsham Sussex, England. David expresses his delight in listening to the African Pathways program from South of London and remarked that the program has been “beneficial and good” to his spiritual life. Tim Brocket writes from Willow Beach, Arizona. According to him, his lives south of Boulder City, Nevada, where he listens to African Pathways discussing high blood pressure, how the sense of smell saves a life, the story of Paul in Antioch, love, and sex in marriage. Tim thanks African Pathways for touching on so many subjects to help individuals build their physical and spiritual lives.
We received a handwritten note from Robert Gavin from Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Robert heard Madagascar World Voice (our relay broadcasting studio out of Madagascar, south of Africa), and he enjoyed African Pathways programs. He promised to remain an avid listener of our programs. Richard Bradley of Methuen, Massachusetts, heard the African Pathways Radio program from our website www.africanpathways.org. Richard enjoys the music and announcement from the male announcer. He appreciated the program “Bible for children religious stories.” Simon Binks writes from Andover, Hampshire, in the United Kingdom, commending the African Pathways Radio program for excellent programs. Simon listened to “African proverbs and the biblical significance, the parable of Jesus explaining how we all should aspire to humility, how illness in children differs from adults and how human immunity evolves, and the way of salvation of our souls.” Ralf Urbanczyk listens to African Pathways programs from Eisleben, Germany, and he writes to thank the program’s producers. Ralf loves “this day in history, story how Saul changed to Paul, lessons from 1st Samuel 16, messages about making a difference in Africa.” Our listeners write in from Nigeria, Ghana, Tanzania, and Kenya. They each express their love and delight for our production. Many listeners from sub-Saharan Africa wrote in June and request Bible correspondence programs, and we have sent their request to World Bible School for a follow-up.

We send our condolences to our listeners from Zambia on the passing of one of their former presidents Dr. Kenneth Kaunda who passed away June 17, 2021, at 97. Dr. Kaunda was the founding father of Zambia, assisting many South African countries in gaining independence. He ruled Zambia for 27 years.
