My dear brothers and sisters in the Lord,

During the past several months you may have listened to a new Catholic radio station on 1430 AM which is called Relevant Radio. It has come to us from the Midwest and has made a wonderful entrance into the New York Metropolitan area. Before now, there was no Catholic talk radio station in our area that is able to provide our Catholic people with constant information about their faith.

Relevant Radio was established in our area with the assistance of the DeSales Media Group, working with them for the purchase of a radio station which covers the entire metropolitan area. This is especially useful as we are driving around, stuck in traffic, allowing us to be able to tune in and listen to this wonderful means of evangelization.

One of the programs that is not transmitted by Relevant Radio is “In the Arena,” hosted by our own Msgr. Kieran Harrington, Vicar for Communications. This program airs on Sunday mornings on WOR 710 AM at 8 a.m., and on NET-TV on Ch. 97, Time Warner and Ch. 30, Cablevision on Sundays at 8 p.m., as well as now on Relevant Radio at various times.

I heartily recommend listening to Relevant Radio, because the information that is transmitted is doctrinally sound and intensely interesting.

Recently, I received a note from the mother of a priest who thanked me for sponsoring Relevant Radio because she said she learned things about her faith which she never knew. I believe this can be true for all of us. Our faith is so rich. Unfortunately, it is difficult to comprehend its richness without help.

Relevant Radio has put out into the deep of the media market in the New York Metropolitan area. Let us support this radio station with our prayers, donations, and, most of all, listening to the Word of God as it is proclaimed and explained to us in this wonderful instrument in the New Evangelization.
