As of 2008, less than 1% of cities in Russia, Ukraine,or Belarus have a local Christian radio station. This is where the ministry of NEW LIFE RADIO comes in to meet the need for Christian radio access. NLR's satellite service is especially important in Russia, as recent political developments have worked to stifle the growth of Christian media.
CHRISTIAN RADIO FOR RUSSIA is a 501(c)3 non-profit ministry that works to guarantee that Christian radio programming can be available in any city, village, or remote area throughout the former Soviet Union. We do this through direct to home satellite radio, FM, AM, cable networks, and the Internet.
NEW LIFE RADIO makes a difference in the lives of the people it touches, whether it is listened to in the home by satellite (like the Dish Network); at a remote missionary site; in a church; within a Russian prison cell; a drug rehab center; a Russian military base, an orphanage, a hospital ward, or listening to FM while driving. We broadcast the GOOD NEWS of NEW LIFE IN CHRIST!
NEW LIFE RADIO is a non-denominational media resource, of service to the entire Christian community, offering free airtime to domestic Christian programmers, and free satellite reception to any listener.
CHRISTIAN RADIO FOR RUSSIA'S mission is to subsidize
this satellite network, while working to expand New Life Radio's reach to Slavic communities worldwide that desire Christian radio programming in the Russian language.
PLEASE ask your church to put NLR in its missions budget as our costs in Moscow are rising dramatically due to added federal taxes and cost of living expenses in Moscow:
MINIMUM cost to operate the NLR Network: $13,500 per month
sponsor a Day of broadcasting for $500,
or an hour of radio for $21
