Report on Station KFUO
(Memorial 1004)

During the past triennium Radio Station KFUO has again to
the best of its ability sought to discharge its responsibility as ‘the
‘ broadcasting station of our Lutheran Church by proclaiming ‘th
Word of God in all its fullness to a sin-ridden world. The two.
morning services of Pilgrim Lutheran Church, St. Louis, Mo., were
‘broadcast every Sunday throughout the year. Other religious pro-
‘grams, such as meditations, Bible study, devotions for shut-ins; .
and the hymns of the Church were given a prominent place on:
‘the station’s daily Program. Many unsolicited letters bear eloquen
testimony that the Word was not proclaimed in vain over KFUO. ©
