Who Are We
Life FM is an Incorporated Association of people
who are endeavoring to establish a Christian Community Radio Station
in Gippsland
Our Aims
Life FM Gippsland will provide programs and
music to equip, empower and encourage Christians across Gippsland
to face the future with hope in these troubled and challenging times.
Now more than ever the Christian message of hope
is needed to provide light in otherwise "dark" situations.
Life FM will provide a radio service for the Christian
community of Gippsland, with powerful teaching programs, a voice
for para-church organisations like St Vincent De Paul, Kilmany Family
Care, Anglicare, Fusion etc, and a clean positive sound that only
Christian content can provide.
Life FM also aims to break down any stigma attached
to the church, to open pathways back into fellowship with other
Christians and to be a unique medium for Christian development in
the region.
In addition.... LIfe FM will offer professional
training courses for those interested in community radio and will
offer reasonably priced sponsorship rates for local businesses.
What We Believe
We believe in the confession of faith as summarized
in the Apostles Creed.
We accept the expression of God's love for us as revealed in John
3:16;
"For God so loved the world
that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him
shall not perish but have eternal life"
