Great Plains Christian Radio will close on its $250,000 acquisition of The Praise Network’s nine stations and six translators in western Kansas and eastern Colorado and move them to their two networks on Monday, June 1.

The Christian AC network based at 99.1 KJIL Copeland KS will be added to the former “Praise Radio” 88.9 KPRD Hays KS, 107.7 KGCR Goodland KS, 89.3 KHLC Hill City KS, 89.3 KPSR Smith Center KS, 89.1 KGCY Cheyenne Wells CO, 89.9 KPBL Beloit KS, 90.3 KGCD Wray CO, 91.1 K216ED Phillipsburg KS, and 103.5 K278AP Lewis KS. They will bring KJIL up to 41 signals across portions of Colorado, Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas.

The Contemporary Worship/Preaching network based at 103.9 KHYM Copeland KS will add 88.1 KZCK Colby KS, 89.5 KGCB Wray CO, 88.5 K203DL Cheyenne Wells CO, 90.7 K214AU Sharon Springs KS, and 96.1 K241AN Pratt KS. They will bring KHYM’s network up to 22 signals in those four states.

Great Plains Christian Radio CEO Michael Luskey said, “We’re grateful for the opportunity to continue the legacy of these stations while serving new listeners. It’s amazing to see what God has done with one FM signal in 1992 to where He has taken it today with a total of 64 signals. No one but the Lord had that plan some 40 years ago. I can’t wit to see what’s next.”
