Hope everyone had a happy Easter

What an incredible resurrection Sunday at our church. It was so good to get together with fellow believers and praise God for the sacrifice of His Son on a cross, but more importantly, defeating death and living today -- preparing a place for His children. I can't wait.

This week on our broadcast we're going to focus on Easter outreach and find out how successful it was. We'll also be giving you an update on the '100 Days of Hope' in Rwanda -- Book of Hope has been instrumental in making that ministry possible. We'll also be bringing you updates on the Dr. Samuel Thomas arrest in India. Not to mention any other late breaking news story that has an impact on evangelism and other missions related work.

By the way, if you have some story suggestions for us, feel free to give us some ideas. Post them right here.

MNN Activity this week

This week should be a great week for Mission Network News. Easter is always a really great time for evangelism. We'll be watching for new and unique ways of sharing our faith in a dark world.

Here are some of the stories we'll be following this week:
1. Hopegivers International situation, Dr. Samuel Thomas is still being held in jail.
2. Mission Aviation Fellowship is starting a new program in Russia, using national pilots.
3. A curse on Christians backfires in Guinea-Bissau West Africa.
4. Easter outreach all week long.

I hope you can join us either on the radio or at our website http://www.MNNOnline.org.

MNN's faithful are amazing

Mission Network News has some pretty amazing friends. I don't talk enough about them, but I am today. You all are great!

In the Month of March we has more access to our website than EVER before. Last month we had 2.2 million hits, nearly 600,000 pages views, and nearly 10,000 people receiving our e-mail updates. That's a lot of people interested in what God's doing around the world.

What's even more important is that these people are getting actively involved in outreach. Last month we had dozens of people contact organizations featured on our Short-term Missions Database, stmbd.org. It looks as though more and more people want to be used by God overseas.

Even more cool? You were instrumental in getting Mission Network News on radio stations around the world. Last week I received word that a radio station program director received about a dozen calls from listeners asking them to put MNN on their radio station. They did. We're not on 963 radio outlets in 90 of the top 100 markets.

Praise God. He's the one that makes these blessings flow (I didn't want to quote the song). And, thank you for be willing to listen to Him.
