Overview
For about 400,000 people in the world, Low German (Plautdietsch) is the language of the heart. For many of these, it is their only language. Located mostly in the Latin American countries of Mexico, Bolivia and Paraguay, Low German-speakers often feel isolated and forgotten. Square One World Media provides radio, video, and print material that connects with the heart to introduce some to Jesus Christ and encourage others in their long-held faith.

As courting singles in the 1950s, John Klassen and Bertha Pauls toured the country as tenor and pianist with the Gospel Light Quartet. They married and remained committed to Gospel Light’s music ministry – in English, German and Russian – until their retirement in 1999. Bertha accompanied soloists, ensembles and choirs while John sang in choirs, quartets, sextets and octets. Together, they revived the Gospel Light Singers in 1995. Both played and taught a variety of instruments, but Bertha is best known as a pianist and John as a symphony violinist.
