THE LEAST OF THESE
Program Highlights
HCJB--The Voice of the Andes
May 16 and 18, 1998


        One may not naturally think of music as a means of working with the
poor. But, around the world there are a number of examples of how the
"universal language" can provide support in a variety of ways. On this
week's The Least of These, Shelly Sutton will talk with Ken Clarkston,
chaplain and Executive Director of the gospel mission in Dayton, Ohio
about how he mixes a Steel Drum band with the homeless. She will also
talk with Max Winn in London, England who is helping musicians in India
form a symphony orchestra. Jim Wilbar will be along with a report on
"Rock and Wrap it Up," an effort to take surplus food from pre-concert
dinners and give it to the poor. Also on this week's program, Curt Cole
has a report on how one community in Haiti has taken the matter of
potable drinking water into their own hands.
        The Least of These is a weekly radio program produced by HCJB, The Voice
of  the Andes in Quito, Ecuador, South America. The title of the program
comes from the biblical reference in Matthew 25:40 where Jesus Christ
said,
        "I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you
gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I
needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I
was in prison and you came to me.  Whatever you did for one of the least
of these brothers of mine, you did for me."
