Visionathon – Getting Better and Better
Sunday night I dropped into bed at 1:15am after a roller-coaster ride through our Visionathon fundraiser ‘Operation Acceleration’. We had a goal to raise sufficient funds to ‘fast-track’ turning on 100 new communities with a Vision relay station.

Last night we had a wonderful meal at La Bella Roma on Sixth Avenue, Maroochydore. The team from CVC and all our guests had a wonderful night of networking with pizza and pasta but the night took a turn when Shaun stepped up to the plate.

Leaving the Karaoke machine to gather dust in the corner, Shaun launched into a stirring performance that captured...

It was an awe inspiring sight to see the lantern fill with hot air before heading into the evening sky. We would have...

Here is the good news of the Vision Radio Network’s 300th station. This was such an amazing time to see the ministry come to a new level as the community of Yarrawonga in Victoria came on-air. This was especially significant as the people of Yarrawonga had earlier blessed another community by donating the funds for our 200th station to begin broadcasting in Yulara in the heart of the outback of Australia. Celebrate with us as UCB’s CEO, Ian Worby (the Steve Irwin of Christian Radio) introduces you to our latest member of the...
