How did Spirit Catholic Radio - KVSS get on the air?
After 18 months of negotiations, prayer, and the generosity of a few local Catholic families, Catholic Radio – KVSS hit the airwaves. In 1999, VSS Catholic Communications, Inc. purchased the 88.9 FM signal from an existing local radio station and immediately began broadcasting a mix of contemporary Christian music and Catholic programming from the EWTN Radio Network. Additional programming followed from St. Joseph Communications & St. Joseph’s Radio, Catholic Answers, Ave Maria and Starboard Communications. Almost from the beginning, KVSS has produced local programming and continues to develop local programming all the time. Spirit 88.9 FM has broadcast everything from network programs to local events such as the Archdiocesan Eucharistic Congress, Church dedications, Ordinations, Lenten Fish Fry’s and Catholic High School Football and Basketball games!
VSS Catholic Communications, Inc. is dedicated to answering the call of the Holy Father, John Paul II, for a New Evangelization. Our charism in the mission of evangelization is to broadly employ broadcast media to transmit the Gospel of Jesus Christ with the fullness of the living Tradition as preserved, revered and proclaimed by the Catholic Church for 2000 years. Everyone involved recognizes this apostolate as an extraordinary gift, which we receive anew each day.
The future is bright for Spirit 88.9 FM as God’s gifts continue to be showered upon the station! Chief among His gifts are you and your families. With your prayers and generous support, a market-competitive facility has been built and solid programming that helps to transmit our faith is in place.
