Radio Colombe becomes TWR Partner

Radio Colombe, an FM Christian radio station near Lyon in France, became Trans World Radio Europe’s 30th partner in November.

Directed by Jacques Aquila, Radio Colombe broadcasts on 107FM and covers the largest area of any Protestant radio station in France.

Founded in 1982, Radio Colombe recently helped pioneer a Protestant FM radio network within France. “We hope to cover every area of France,” notes Aquila. He adds that the network hopes to expand their audience to a younger demographic by airing mostly music with short, three-minute spots.

Many of Radio Colombe’s programs contain music along with a 30-minute Bible program, aimed at adults ages 45 to 60.

Since Aquila became director of Radio Colombe in 2004, the station has doubled its transmitting power and improved the quality of its programs. Radio Colombe hopes all Protestant FM stations in France will cooperate within this network.
