Uplifting Messages From Listeners We received this sweet message from faithful supporter, Ed. His daughter, Bri, went home to be with the Lord at only 19 years old in 2016.

A listener sharing his testimony!

We received this message from a listener!

We love that we can do life with our listeners!

Station Tour with Meyer’s Heating & Air Beth gave a station tour to one of our business partners, Meyer’s Heating & Air. It was her daughter, Kristen’s, 15th birthday. Kristen was able to see the studio, and record a short break with Theresa.

They left full of joy and feeling lots of love!

Stop 1 – Stafford Our Stafford Pop-up was a success!

Another opportunity for the WPER to be out in the community!

Eric befriended a group of middle school boys on their bikes at our Stafford Pop-Up! Or maybe they befriended him?!

“God saved me 27 years ago at Mount Ararat and I didn’t know anything about the Lord. But I started listening to the radio just to get encouragement and you guys have blessed me every day since!”

– Kathy, attendee at Pop-Up

More Messages From Listeners From Virginia to North Carolina, Still Family

“For the past 7 years I have been blessed by God for giving

to your ministry and I have been blessed daily by your radio

station. It is the only station I play in my home. I am moving to NC but I will still be praying for you guys, and I hope

God continues to bless your radio station beyond measure for your love and dedication to such a wonderful ministry.”

– Bryan

Seth’s Vacation Playlist: WPER on Blast

“My son, Seth, is your biggest fan! He advertises on his

Facebook page about your station all the time. Just to let

you know, we’re on vacation in the Outer Banks right now,

and he has your station on his app blasting on his Bluetooth speaker! Everyone on our street can hear your station!”

A Blockbuster Ending to Our Summer of Fun! We wrapped up our Summer of Fun with an incredible Family Fun Day & Movie Night at Shannon Airport!

The evening was packed with excitement with over 25 vendors, delicious food trucks, face painting, train rides, and so much more. More than 1,500 people joined us, including many who had never experienced WPER, or heard about Jesus, before. What a powerful way to end the summer!

“I listen to WPER because it helped me raise my kids. The songs, every single time, I either get encouragement, conviction, or I use them as a way to pray for somebody needing something.”

I work for a business where all I do is plant and tend the garden. I play your station while I’m working and I believe the music helps the garden grow.

My smile from the weekend was being at the We the Kingdom Concert! When Ed sang Dear Jesus it blew my husband and I away. Thank you for WPER and have a blessed day!”
