New Spanish programs have been added to our ever-increasing archives of audio and video files, and are being gradually added to the vault to be used in our one-hour radio program. Those audio files have other uses. We convert them to mp4 (video) files in order to be broadcasted in social media outlets. Right now, we are broadcasting our one-hour program every day through Facebook, and our shorter programs twice a week through Facebook and YouTube.
We really appreciate the collaboration from Jesús Blanco and the Faithful Word Ministry in Cuba for making available their professional quality short programs. In the month of February, I have been editing two of their series for our use.
One of them is Youth, Divine Treasure, which intends to answer questions and concerns that are common to teenagers in Latin America, using biblical principles. The program is a group of Christian teens, directed by Jesús, discussing those different topics in a very positive and conversational manner, using the Scriptures as the basis for their affirmations. The illustrations and examples they use show the practical aspect of their presentation and the wisdom of the Christian way. These series are being broadcasted once a week on Facebook and YouTube, and will be a part of our La Voz Alegre one-hour broadcast starting the week of March 13.
The other series is entitled Like Jesus, (Como Jesús). The thesis of these programs is that all of us can aspire to be like Jesus. It shows Jesus as the model and then discusses how we can start to follow in Jesus’ footsteps, and grow in His likeness. This series has 20 programs created by Jesús Blanco with the assistance of the team that works with him in the Faithful Word Ministry. Each program is 13 minutes long, and is being currently used once a week in our La Voz Alegre one-hour program. Very soon it will be broadcasted by itself through Facebook and YouTube.
Those two radio programs will also be added to our website and app to be accessible to those that would like to hear them on demand or to download for personal use, or to share with friends and family. We are sending those programs with a prayer that it might be used by God to make an impact on young people among the half billion people that speak Spanish worldwide.
Faithful Word Ministry is currently working on developing a new series which they have entitled Connect! It is a program that will have a similar format to our one-hour program, but in smaller sample (it will be 15 minute long). Jesús goal with this program is to record 52 programs for la Voz Alegre. We will be talking about Connect in a later article.
It’s amazing how God works through partnerships. Please, pray for us as we continue to search for ways to share God’s message with the world… and for people to hear and respond to Him.
