From the Manager
Sharathon - A Family Reunion!
It's always fun when family gets together and that is probably the best way to describe the atmosphere around the station during Sharathon.  It was good to see everyone that helped out and hear from the rest who made commitments to help for the coming year.  Talk about people pulling in the same direction we had that.  Everyone was interested in helping reach the goal and we did!

Now we can start our 25th year encouraged and empowered.  It was God who encouraged and empowered us but we know He did it by moving His people to action.  People gave as they could and others gave even above what they had available to them at the moment.  Many took up the challenge to make a faith promise and give according to the desire to see us succeed and the know-ledge that God could provide the means in unexpected ways.  We have heard surprising stories of how God impressed them to give more and then gave them the extra to pass on!  Everything about Sharathon was meant to encourage us to go on in humility knowing that God was making it possible through people throughout the community. 

There were so many denominations represented that we just knew this had to be God moving to to help us work together.  It often makes me wonder what else we could accomplish if we felt safe around each other and could just take our direction from God showing us the needs around us and our place in filling them.
If only we coudl communicate with each other more.  If only we ocudl keep our focus on our Lord and act in His behalf.  I feel that is part of why God has given this broadcast opportunity, so we can see the needs of others as well as our own then be encouraged to take action.  We want you to have access to all the information you need whether it be from the world around you or more importantly from the spiritual realm.  We want you to have instant access.  Would that seem like a worthwhile goal for a communication ministry like WCIF?  We want you to know that we are here for you thanks to many who have indicated they want to make it possible through their gifts.

Please also remember the goal we reached was what could be called our bare bones budget.  It pays the monthly bills.  But there are opportunities presented to us that will require we go beyond that.  Even now we have equipment that needs to be replaced.  We can still use your help and if you can remember us in this way we would appreciate it if you would call or write and check in.  God Bless you and all those you will tell about this place on the dial, Where Christ Is First!

Thanks for Your  Sharathon Comments!

Thank you for another wonderful year of broadcasting.  Over the years since we came to the Space Coast I have seen many improvements in WCIF’s broadcasting capabilities . . Thanks for helping to soothe the souls of your listeners.
 

WCIF has been a blessing, daily, for 10 years.  Thank you - especially for your local hosts who lovingly share the Word with all of your listeners.  God Bless each of you mightily!
 

I have said it already, and I will say it again, I would not trade WCIF for another radio station.
 

Thank you so much for the care and compassion  you have for Our Precious God and Jesus Christ, and all that you do for the community.  Please accept our pledges in the amounts stated above, and we look forward to working with you more closely in the future.
 

I am so thankful to have a station I can listen to that uplifts my spirit and entertains me with Christian programming.
 

God bless you and thank you for your all night inspirational program. It's a real blessing for me thru the night.
