News Flash! ATN has a very special project we are involved with for this satellite event. Br Enoch Mogusu, Director of Rebroadcast Affairs for East-Central Africa is in Kigali and will install a pilot site with a Low-Power Transmitter to rebroadcast Hope Channel and Pr Finleys series. He is facing some unexpected difficulties and wrote just last night requesting special prayer. The analogue transmission Enoch is installing will rebroadcast Hope Channel and New Life Hope For Today covering the city of Kigali and offering viewers the first religious channel on their local TV. Please pray for Enoch and the successful installation of this pilot TV transmission site.
