That smile on the little boy’s face when he received the sticker, that tear in the woman’s eye as our team prayed with her – these stories happening thousands of times, over and over. That’s what community engagement is all about –making connections.
Of course, you can find the WGTS team on the radio at 91.9 and 88.3 every day of the year. And on-air ministry is where you can hear the music and conversation provided by our hosts, live and in the studios with you from 5 a.m. to midnight.
But our staff and our volunteers can also be found on-location throughout the region. You’ll find us at churches, at schools, at hospitals, at concerts, at convention centers, on the golf course, and many more spots throughout the region.
