A couple of weeks back, we got a phone call from a friend, who is the media representative for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. A Czech public radio station, Český rozhlas 6 (something like BBC in the UK), was looking for some Mormons they could interview for a weekly program that they do about different churches in Czech society. To make a long story short, a radio guy came and interviewed me (Dan). This interview was condensed into a half-hour long program and broadcast last Saturday.
Tonight (16.5), the same program will focus on Mormons again. The program's host also interviewed a Czech friend of ours, Jarda Haječek, and I expect tonight's program will focus on that interview. I was happy with the outcome of the interview. The program last week was quite positive and portrayed Mormons well, in my severely biased opinion ;-)
Anyways, I downloaded the interview from the internet (http://www.rozhlas.cz/cro6/audio) and made a link to it (on the right side of our blog: Files to download). So if you're interested, feel free to listen!

Katka, this post is especially for you, because I know you will see it. Also Jarda, the other guy interviewed has appeared in our blog before... He also ran the half marathon and is with us in the picture on the winners' podium! -Dan
Wow, that's really cool! Congratulations. It's always lovely to have Mormons portrayed in a positive light.
Thanks for the link! I'm going to listen to it today after Church. You have such great opportunities to share the gospel, thank you for doing it in my home country so well!
