Doors opening
YWAMers continue going out to spread the gospel message and train people all around the world. Some of this happens in very remote places where they can at times also feel isolated. The need for connection and belonging remains vital, also because it facilitates a flow of life, encouragement, accountability and care. Internet access continues to represent an opportunity to be connected. Especially in Asia and Africa there is great development to get initial connectivity. Many are researching and pursuing the possibilities for GENESIS connectivity, which requires high-speed Internet access.
Several locations, including creative access countries, report satisfactory bandwidth which will allow them to strengthen training, remain connected relationally on a deeper level and share much other content. It also allows remote locations to share what is happening there and keep the rest of the body involved. Our friends in Uganda and Tanzania are now seeing the fruit of a major fibre optic cable that was run at the east coast of Africa. Many more countries will reap the benefits of this.
This development is very exciting, and we look forward to see many more locations able to connect across the globe.
