Did you know Trinity Baptist Church owns a radio station? KCYR 101.5 LP FM transmits right here from our steeple!

 
Riley Gordon, Misty Gordon and I have been working on improving it ever since we took over managing it in 2021. Over the last few years, we have had a lot of changes. We slimmed our format to be mostly music, commercial-free with only a few programs currently peppered into the mix.

 
We have strived to find Biblically-sound content – that also rocks. We carefully search the web to procure fresh music that you won’t hear on KLOVE. My musical vision for KCYR was modeled after an independent station I used to listen to that is based in Vermont. The goal was not only to have music be theologically sound as possible, but also SOUND good! We knew there had to be better content out there that wasn’t POP music. We canceled our contract with Salem Music, and brought all music in-house.

 
We had help from a local radio station owner, Justin McClure (JAM Broadcasting), who donated A LOT of his time, along with an entire library of Christian rock from a station he used to run in Stephenville years ago. It was a great start to our new in-house library which is growing all the time!

 
The next thing we tackled was putting together an app for our station! A few months ago, Riley and I began researching apps, and found one suitable for our station. Now, those of you who listen while in town, but can’t when you head back home, can keep on listening as long as you have a data signal! After much work, we’re excited to finally invite you to download the new KCYR app!!

 
Available in iPhone and Android platforms for free. No ads. You can listen anywhere, even outside the Kerrville city limits! There are options to like or dislike the songs, set notifications for a song you love and the app will let you know when it will play next. You can even send song requests!

Things are about to ramp up in the Worship Ministry as we begin preparations for the holiday season—starting with the Christmas Preview Dinner! If you have attended the Christmas Preview Dinner in the past, you know it’s typically a themed dinner event, that we enjoy food and fellowship while hearing the debut of our Christmas Cantata for the season!

 

This year’s theme is 1950s Sock Hop! Dig out your poodle skirt, slick back your hair, grab a friend, and join us August 27^th in the Family Life Center at 6:00pm! Everyone is welcome. Be there or be square…

 

 

If you’re interested in joining the 11:00 service Worship Choir, your opportunity to jump in at the start of the season is rapidly approaching! Worship Choir starts back up August 23rd. Worship Choir sings at 11:00 service every Sunday, and typically sings more traditional anthems. Here’s hoping many of our Summer Singers ‘graduate’ to Worship Choir!

 

 

If you like to sing, but prefer an earlier service…. if seating charts aren’t your thing, and you like a little more laid-back atmosphere, then you would probably love singing with the 8:30 Praise Choir. The 8:30 Praise Choir sings more contemporary music than the Worship Choir. They meet Tuesdays at 6:00pm in the Worship Center. Call Stephanie in the Church Office if you’re interested in joining the Praise Choir.

 

“I will sing to the Lord all my life, I will sing praise to my God as long as I live.” Psalm 104:33

  

 

 

I am a huge believer in our Victor ministry but, I must admit, even I was intimidated at the seemingly daunting task of coordinating and putting together The Victor without Larry, or any worship minister for that matter. However, it has been a great lesson to trust God. It was His will for us to present The Victor, just as we have done annually for the past 11 years. And, He allowed it to happen. All of the pieces came together, as only He could do. I am so grateful God gave us this opportunity to present this special gift to our community. It is hard work, but it is so worth it, even if we reach just one person who doesn’t yet know Jesus. We are so thankful for all who prayed with us for everything involved with the presentation.

 

It is an exciting time here in the TBC Worship Ministry, as we prepare for our new Worship Minister, Charlie Barganier, to arrive! The view of a call weekend March 17-19 with Charlie and his family was a wonderful time of music and fellowship. It was a joy to work with him, and I know we are all looking forward to his arrival next month!
