200 Languages from TWR

Listeners in the Philippines, Russia and East Africa are among the beneficiaries of the expanded ministry by international Christian broadcaster Trans World Radio (TWR).

With the addition of lnaguages in those countries, TWR now broadcasts the gospel worldwide in more than 200 languages and dialects.

Programmes air from more than 2,700 broadcasting outlets, including 14 international transmitting sites, satellite, cable, Internet and local AM and FM stations.

Broadcasting since 1954, TWR took 41 years to reach the 100-language plateau, then just 10 years to reach the 200 mark.

“Expanding the number of languages that we air undoubtedly broadens our opportunity to reach even more people with the gospel message,” said TWR President David Tucker.

“What’s more, by adding broadcasts into hard-to-reach areas like the Northern Caucasus region and the Philippines, we can deliver the gospel to people who might not otherwise have access to it.”
