What's Going On? July 2012

FROM REX MORGAN
Reaching out to the Latin American World

Positive Response to the Gospel via the Media
What does that have to do with a man and a bike?


Meeting Vladimir SedeƱo Diaz for the first time in Cuba was an exciting moment.
He introduced himself to me and said, “I am one of the first listeners of the
radio program and I have brought 10 more people to the truth.  I feel
responsible to encourage everyone in Camaguey to listen to the programs.”
Vladimir meeting Rex
Vladamir continued with a request, “Please, I need $150.00 for a bicycle, I was
disabled while in the military, but with a bicycle I could encourage people all
over the Camaguey Province to tune-in to the programs on Trans World Radio.”

Within a week of my return to the USA, I received an email and this picture from
Vladimir.
Vladimir and his new bicycle ready to spread the good news
Thank you Matthew Moore and our brothers from the Mayfair Church of Christ, who
donated the funds needed.

Meet Another Radio Listener
Elizabeth Delmonte Moliner  meets in her home every Sunday night with five
ladies and tunes-in to La Voz Alegre.  She said, “I know that this is a
preacher's conference, but I had to meet you.  Thank you for your program.”
 

She lives in Matanzas, Cuba.  She had a couple of requests. First a Bible with
large letters, which someone gave her while we were still in Cuba.  The other
request is a battery charger with AA rechargeable batteries, for her radio, so
that she can continue to listen to our radio programs each week.




May: National Preachers and Leaders Meeting


Prayers and Bible courses are requested daily through our television and radio
broadcasts across the USA. Just this week, calls came in from Miami, Homestead,
Hialeah, and Tallahassee, Florida.  Also this week requests came in from Nevada,

Virginia.

All of these requests for Bible courses are placed into the hands of World Bible

What's Going On? June 2012

From Rex Morgan
Rex Morgan, Ammiel Perez, and Luis Estrada

"Now is the time to help the church in Cuba!"
What can bring representatives of 20 church of Christ ministries and congregations together in one place to spend a Saturday? Answer: The unified interest in sharing Jesus with our Cuban neighbors to the south of us. 

We were given a detailed history of the church in Cuba by Ammiel Perez who
continues to serve as an elder and one of the preachers of the 10 de Octubre
Church of Christ in Havana.  His central message to us was: “Now is the time to
help the church in Cuba”.
Gregory Huffine, lists the present and future needs for Cuba.

We were encouraged to hear that in the last 10 years the church has grown from
500 members to 3500 members nationwide. There are now 70 trained preachers and
120 congregations.  The unified efforts of brethren in Cuba, the USA, Jamaica,
and Honduras are bearing great fruit for the Lord.

Remember to pray for the listeners of our radio program, La Voz Alegre (The
Happy Voice) and Herald of Truth's program, Lea la Biblia, every Sunday and
Saturday night on Trans World Radio.  In Cuba the response is continuing to be
85 to 100 people who are seeking to know more about Christ each month. Praise
God!  Also, continue to pray for those preparing radio messages heard in Cuba
and the rest of Latin America each week.

When you receive this article we will be participating in the Preacher's
Conference in Matanzas, Cuba.  This will be a time of encouragement and
spiritual enrichment for the Cuban evangelists and elders.

Your ongoing support makes this and so much more possible. Thanks for
partnering with us!

The Cuba Summit 2012 took place at the Madison Church of Christ on April 28th.
The event was organized by Gregory Huffine, deacon of missions, and emceed by
Phil Barnes, Madison's preacher.  Thank you for hosting this event!
Phil Barnes, Ammiel Perez, and Rex Morgan are ready for a special day focused on Cuba

World Christian Broadcasting Made It Happen At The 2012
Pepperdine Lectureship
World Christian Broadcasting was given the opportunity to present three
messages at the Pepperdine Lectureship.  Ammiel Perez was invited by WCB and
presented the history of the church and highlighted current needs in Cuba.

He shared details about pivotal points in history that have led to the church
now being recognized by the Cuban government.  He was open about how we can
help in encouraging the church in Cuba.  Ammiel did a great job representing
the Cuban people and their needs.

Pepperdine University has a long-standing tradition of recognizing great
servants of the Lord. Jerry Rushford, director of the Pepperdine Lectureship,
presented Ammiel Perez with the “Distinguished Christian Service Award".

to
AMMIEL PEREZ
Devoted Servant of Jesus Christ,
Dedicated Student of the Word of god,
Faithful Preacher of the Gospel with the
10th of October Church of Christ in

Beloved Mentor to Younger Christians, and
one whose Unceasing Commitment to the
Cause of Christ has greatly strengthened
Churches of Christ throughout Cuba
Presented on May 3 2012
at the
69th Annual Bible Lectures

A thought from Rex:
After spending so much time with Ammiel, over the past month, and working with
him in Cuba over the past 11 years, I was so proud to see him humbly accept
this honor.  It is great when we can encourage one another to press on in the
Lord’s work.

Only servants, through whom you came to believe- as the Lord assigned to each
his task. I planted, Apollos watered it, but God made it grow.

What's Going On? May 2012

From Rex Morgan
Enjoy the Day!

People are responding to the gospel's message of hope and peace for their lives. Letters and phone calls pour in after every broadcast. Televisions are on and people are examining their lives, then asking for help. Radio listeners are driving in their cars, working in offices, involved in the daily grind of life, and they are wanting something better for their lives, something only the pure message of Jesus Christ can fulfill.

May God continue to add to His kingdom!

We are blessed to have partners in Cuba like Tony Fernandez, sponsored by the Herald of Truth, in charge of our radio follow-up efforts. On a recent visit, Tony shared the good news of a whole family of radio-listeners coming to Christ and being baptized.

The Cuba Summit - A Blessing from the Lord!

Ammiel Perez was the featured speaker at the Cuba Summit and will also speak at the Pepperdine Lectureship in May

Abrazos, hugs, and besos, kisses - that was the scene at the Miami
International Airport this week as Ammiel Perez, from Havana, Cuba, was reunited with his son Ammielito. The joy of seeing a family, which does not have the freedom to travel easily between Cuba and the USA, reunited brought tears to my eyes too.

Abuelo, grandfather - Ammiel recently learned that Ammielito and his wife, who live here in Miami, will have their first child this year. This will be Ammiel’s first grandchild. Wow! This makes this moment even more precious.

Ammiel and his wife Maricela have served the Lord at the 10th of October church of Christ in Havana, Cuba since 1984. They have courageously endured the changes to their country and society, building up the name of the Jesus in Cuba in spite of many challenging political and social parameters.

THANK YOU AMMIEL FOR ALL YOU DO FOR THE KINGDOM!

For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea.
Habakkuk 2:14
Our dream is to make the saving message of Jesus available to all who seek Him. We are working to accomplish this through the use of the media and partnerships with local churches of Christ and their ministries.
