                Church of all Nations.


                These committees have coopted the Communications Department for

                clerical and professional recording assistance.  The Co uncil is
                happy to assist the Churches in this  "air force" ministry of the
                Hong Kong Churches.  Nearly all of the programmes, Roman Catholic

                and Protestant are produced in the council's professional recording
                centre.  This means that through the facilities of the Council,
                the Christian Churches are daily reaching thousands of persons
                with the gospel who otherwise would have no contact with the

                gospel.  This  is one of the forms cf mission which helps the
                local denominations to reach outside the walls of the familiar

                and to reach those who otherwise would hesitate to come  into
                our buildings.
