Dear Friends and Family,
Hello from Cambodia! I hope and pray this message finds you all doing well.
See Nara & Grandpa Choy!
Now, instead of just hearing Nara & Grandpa Choy, you can see them! We are in the middle of producing 6 months worth of new programs and a 6 month Sunday School curriculum that goes with it, and parts of it are already coming together! As a part of the curriculum we will have coloring p-ages of Nara and Grandpa Choy, as well as full color flip book stories that go with the program, and the artwork is coming out great! In each radio episode Nara and grandpa Choy "travel" to the Bible Storybook Castle through their imagination, and the coloring pages show what that is like. The flip book stories show Nara getting into some situation that requires Grandpa Choy to help show him how the Bible addresses his problem. You can see some of the coloring pages and flip book pages at our website right now! Check it out at www.taborfocus.com/family_bio_and_pictures.html! You can also see a detailed plan of what Nara & Grandpa Choy is all about on our website at www.taborfocus.com/dan_and_louie.html.
We have also finished principal recording of all 26 new radio episodes, and now we need to edit them. Please pray with us for God's anointing, inspiration and direction as we work on editing, artwork, curriculum development, etc.
New Videos In The Works!
Part of our ministry includes helping to raise missions awareness and support through videos we produce for other missionaries. We are currently working on 3 new videos of this kind. One is helping to raise support for a new street kids shelter / ministry here in Phnom Penh, one is for a ministry to missionary kids and families, and one is to help explain the needs and opportunities in Thailand for missionary work.
Doing these videos is one way we partner with these ministries to help them use media to accomplish what God has placed on their hearts. It gives us the opportunity to speak into areas around the region in a way that shows the love of God we have one for another. Please pray that God would help us to effectively strengthen, encourage and promote these ministries.
FEBCambodia is 7 Years Old!
This coming week Troy will be speaking at the 7th anniversary celebration for FEBCambodia. Troy serves as chairman of the board for FEBCambodia, the local part of the FEBC network (Far East Broadcasting Company is an international missions organization dedicated to using radio to spread the gospel in Asia). FEBCambodia has a 10,000 khz FM radio station here in Cambodia that operates about 18 hours a day, as well as several hours of shortwave broadcasts to reach areas beyond the FM stations coverage. God has used this station to reach people across the country, and we believe God has great things in their future as well. This is the station we will be using to broadcast our new Nara & Grandpa Choy programs as well! Please pray with us that God would continue to bless this ministry!
