Rejoice Radio was founded in June, 1971, as WPCS-FM, Pensacola,
FL. WPCS has continued to feature the finest in traditional Christian
music and programming. Now heard around the world via 40 translator
stations and the Internet, WPCS and RBN have seen God
supply the financial needs through gifts from listeners. We are deeply
grateful for your support of this radio ministry. |
The Vision for Rejoice Radio
Over 30 years ago, God placed a desire on the heart of Dr. Arlin Horton,
president and founder of the Rejoice Broadcast Network, to start
a Christian radio station that would reach listeners all along the upper
Gulf Coast. In June 1971, that dream became a reality when WPCS began
broadcasting. Through these 30 years, Dr. Horton has kept the vision
of what the Lord can do through this listener-supported Christian radio
ministry. WPCS expanded its out-reach in December 1996 when the Rejoice
Broadcast Network began broadcasting on its first satellator station
in Eugene, Oregon. Now on over 40 stations and the Internet, Rejoice
Radio reaches
listeners across America and around the world. From the beginning, Dr.
Horton's desire was to broadcast good Christian music and programming
that would encourage believers in their daily walk with the Lord and
provide a gospel witness in the community. That desire to serve God and
reach people continues today. We are grateful that Dr. Horton has kept
the vision for Rejoice Radio. We look forward expectantly and
say, "To God be the glory, great things He hath done."
