Last year I told Wally Eshenaur that I was praying for Jesus to turn things around in Mongolia and Albania and North Korea and break them open. He said don't forget Ethiopia, the Soviet satellite in East Africa. For eight years the church had to be underground. The civil war made life tenuous and our BGC missionaries had to come home. The turn around has been incredible.
Churches are open.
Hymns are being sung. The Bible is read out loud. Two weeks after religious freedom returned crowds of 18,000 were gathering to hear the gospel. I have a surprise for you. I just got a postcard from Kurt Bowerman Friday who had had lunch with Bill Bright on Monday where he learned that the first showing of the Jesus film in Mongolia will be January 11 and the first showing in Albania will be December 14.
