WPHA Mission Statement

Gal 6:9-10

GAL 6:9 "And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not."

GAL 6:10 "As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all [men], especially unto them who are of the household of faith."

The mission of WPHA is to exalt the Lord Jesus Christ and proclaim Him (through music) to New England 24 hours a day. The acronym means,
"We Praise Him Always."

This will be accomplished by: 

    

  1. Playing high quality Christian music which, by its message, will
draw lost sinners to Salvation and draw Christians closer to Him:
a) The music format will be "Inspirational / Light Adult Contemporary."
b) The message of every song will clearly glorify Christ as Lord.
c) The balance of music to talk will be approximately 90% music.
d) The tempo and style of music will be varied enough to appeal
     to many, but will not contain "Rock", "Rap" or other styles 
     considered controversial or offensive by many adults.
    

    

  2. The limited talk programming will focus primarily upon
contemporary issues as they relate to the local communities
and families from a Christian perspective:
a) A local call-in talkshow with a strong emphasis on living the
    Christian life in modern times, here in Southern CT.
b) Local church programs will be limited to those which have the
    capability to produce high quality recordings which are
    Scripturally sound.
c) National programs with strong ministry & family emphasis.
d) Most of the programs will air at night, since we already have
    an excellent program-oriented Daytime station in the area.

    

  3. Public Service Announcements, including but not limited to:
a) Church & Community related events.
b) Event cancellations.
c) School closings.
d) Etc.

    

  4. News and general interest information of benefit to the listeners:
a) Traffic reports for major highways in the area, during the peak
    travel times, several times per hour.
b) News, both Local and National, with the emphasis on Local.

    

  5. Special announcements to inform the public of important matters
they can become involved in:
a) A church or family had a crisis; fire, flood, etc. and needs help.
b) A catastrophe of larger proportions affecting a number of people,
    requiring volunteers and other support.
c) A family (or families) made homeless and require help.
d) Other situations requiring volunteers or philanthropic aid.
e) Community clean-up activities.

    

  6. A companion to isolated listeners, such as:
a) Shut-ins or Convalescents.
b) Prison inmates.
c) Late-shift workers or insomnia sufferers.

    

  7. Continuous children's programming from "His Kids
Network", (hiskids.net) will be available to all listeners with a relatively
low-cost digital radio. (This new digital technology, known as FMeXtra,
will also allow WPHA to offer other continuous programming! It will, quite
literally, allow WPHA to fully serve several completely diverse audiences
at the same time. It makes WPHA into as many as 3 or 4 stations.)

    

  8. WPHA will work WITH the other Christian stations in our area,
NOT AGAINST them.

  • Ideas are always welcomed, and will be added to this list as appropriate.
