A CRISIS IN COMMUNICATION The greatest need in Africa t oday is to communicate the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the masses of people. It is imperative that we Christians utilize every modern opportunity to get the Scriptures to them. The lines of communication are still open to us. The PTL methods of communicating with the Afrjcan people through mass evangelization and personal Scripture distribution is most effective. To expand this ministry during this time of crisis, we need your support. WRITE TODAY TO : Alfred A. Kunz, International Director
