On the Women’s World Day of Prayer my studio guest was Meg Horner. The focus for the day of events was Egypt and from her own experience and personal contacts Meg was able to talk interestingly about issues facing the millions of Christians in Egypt. As Saturday is the International Women’s Day, the focus on the music tonight was from Women artists. We also had some odd news items, including a penguin sanctuary in Australia that encourages people to knit jumpers for penguins that have been damaged by oil spills. Those in the chatroom loved the photo.
