Benin (TWR/MNN) ¯ Trans World Radio's engineering team is making 
progress in readying the new transmitting facility in Benin, West Africa.

The transmitter and an air conditioning unit are on-site. Two additional 
containers with power generators and essential antenna parts are in 
transit and due to arrive in Africa in the coming weeks.

According to TWR, the team signed the license agreement last year, 
and TWR-Africa has persevered through several subsequent 
challenges regarding the transmitter project, including delays in 
ordering and receiving equipment and seeking out program producers.

Construction of the highpower medium wave (AM) station in Benin is 
making steady progress. Missionaries, including the Cox and Kennedy 
families, have been working hard to get the station operational. Paul 
Cox, a broadcast engineer, is overseeing the installation of the 
transmitter and other technical aspects.

Programming is scheduled to begin airing in December. Pray that the 
project goes smoothly so that the team can proclaim the gospel to the 
region soon.
