Fi News #116 – Bloomington on air ( 05min) >>> Play |

Ave Maria!
Our newest radio station, With Our Mother Blest, in Bloomington, IN – WOMB 89.9 FM Ellettsville (the community of license) – is now on the air at full power! In fact, it was cranked up to full power a few weeks ago, but we have been so busy with three AirMaria road trips for conferences and then to World Youth Day in Madrid, that we have not been able to get this post up until now.
This is the 3rd radio station on the air belonging to our AirMaria Radio Network, the first being Holy Virgin Mary Radio, 91.9 FM Owego, NY, and the second being CorMariae, WPMW 88.5 FM Bayview, MA.
We are still fighting to find a tower location for Holy Name of Mary Radio, WHNM 89.5 FM Pawcatuck, CT.
With Our Mother Blest, WOMB 89.9 FM, is a very strategically located radio station because it reaches the 42, 000 college students and 3,000 professors that are at the University of Indiana in Bloomington. Simply put, for the first time Catholic radio content will be delivered via this station to one of the major intellectual centers of the United States and of the world.
We are currently an EWTN repeater, rebroadcasting the EWTN Radio satellite feed 24/7 with our own top of the hour ID’s chiming in every hour to comply with FCC regulations, but we plan to build our own studio at the new friary in the winter and to begin to add more of our own content as we become more capable.
Ave Maria!

See the progress on the new FI friary in Bloomington, Indiana. Volunteers and pros alike gather local rocks for the facade of the friary.

And finally you can see the new bells that will soon be added to the bell tower which you can see rising high above the roof.

Ave Maria!
Yes, I know, this is a homily. So, what is it doing in the Variety section? Well, it is a very good homily, but I needed to get it up in a hurry before Father’s Day ended and I did not have a category for Bloomington Homilies, so here it is. Listen to Fr. Bill Casey as he gives a homily for the Sunday Mass at our Bloomington, Indiana friary to finish a retreat that he gave there at the Mother of the Redeemer Retreat Center. He is a great speaker.
