How about that! Two blog entries in one day. I just wanted to give you a little look at another aspect of life here at Radio HRGS. It’s only five minutes. Enjoy.

Let’s go for a ride
{ Comments on this entry are closed }
This is some video I shot quite a while ago, back during dust season. We love to take our visitors to the FM transmitter site. It’s about 600′ up on the highest hill on the island. Along the way, there are lots of sights to see – cruise ships, shops, squatters’ shacks, dogs sleeping in [...]
The Glamor of Missions
{ Comments on this entry are closed }
Or maybe not so glamorous. First thing out of the chute this morning, I found that we didn’t get any of the audio satellite downloads. After I managed to find replacements for those programs from the various ftp sites we use for occasions like that, I went to the audio shop to investigate the cause [...]
A Sunrise Serenade Sampler
{ Comments on this entry are closed }
What is Sunrise Serenade? That’s our morning wake-up program that runs from 6:00 to 7:00 every weekday morning. And it’s my favorite part of the day. I get to chat with a few thousand friends all at once. Quite a few people have asked me if they can hear Radio HRGS from where they live. [...]
Adventure Shipping in a Tropical Paradise
{ Comments on this entry are closed }
It’s been quiet here at the Gazette lately — not because there’s nothing to write, but because there just hasn’t been time to write it. Praise the Lord that Jim and Karen Avella are here now to lend a hand or four. It’s fantastic to have them back again. Jim already has made several improvements [...]

Best Wife in the World
{ Comments on this entry are closed }
I know some of you guys might differ on me with this, so let me tell you what happened today. We have been working on getting a shipment of materials for the AM tower guy wires replacement project through customs. It was quite the comedy of errors, but today everything came together at last and [...]

My Interruptions Keep Getting Interrupted!
{ Comments on this entry are closed }
Tomorrow is the big day! Well, it’s another big day, anyway. We have lots of them here. We’re getting ready for a visit from our founding president of Bible Basics International, Dr. Eugene Priddy; our current president, Rev. Evan Drake; the vice president of International Ministries, Rev. Herman Meister; and BBI’s Spanish director, Rev. Samuel [...]

Burning the Midnight Oil
{ Comments on this entry are closed }
Peter and I were hard at work after midnight this morning. Yesterday was the day we’d set for installing the “new” refurbished FM computer. It would have been much easier if we actually could have installed it. I use the term “‘new’ refurbished” because none of the computers for our dual language project are new. [...]
Who Says We Have No Culture!?
{ Comments on this entry are closed }
In the early years of modern missions, the philosophy seemed to be that, when entering a new mission field, the first task was to westernize the local population before focusing on sharing the actual Gospel. Thankfully, we have grown a little wiser over the years in that regard. But the loss of heritage in any [...]

Back from Tegus!
{ Comments on this entry are closed }
Tegus — that’s short for Tegucigalpa, the capital city of Honduras. It’s pronounced Te-goose. The trip last Wednesday to Tegus went very well. I got all our business done with the lawyers and at the immigration office. The flights over and back were spectacular. When you’re cruising at an altitude of only 10-11,000 feet and [...]
Never at a Loss for Words
{ Comments on this entry are closed }
This week, as Peter and I sat down to record the HRGS Update, we wondered what we would talk about. We felt like last week was such an uneventful week that we would not have much in the way of news for our listeners. Having been slowed down with some kind of bug that showed [...]

A Short Trip to Utila
{ Comments on this entry are closed }
I had some fun throwing together this little video of my trip to Utila. I left Friday afternoon right after finishing Request & Dedication. I got to Utila at about supper time. The first order of business, of course, was transportation. My friend Lance Bodden helped me out as always with an ATV. Then I [...]
