Radio Nueva Vida (New Life) is a Spanish-language Christian radio network based in Camarillo, California, United States. It is owned and operated by The Association for Community Education, Inc., a California non-profit 501(c)(3) organization established in 1981.
History
[edit]Radio Nueva Vida began broadcasting on January 18, 1987, after building radio station KMRO (90.3 FM) in Camarillo, California. In 1996, additional full-service stations were added to the network to serve Bakersfield and Kern County (KGZO, 90.9 FM), and Fresno and surrounding counties (KEYQ, 980 AM). In December 10, 2012 (KDRH, 91.3 FM) in King City. It added additional FM repeater stations, which cover the California communities of Salinas, San Bernardino, Santa Ana, Victorville, Indio, Palm Springs, Soledad, Los Banos, the San Fernando Valley, Colton, Coachella, Desert Center, Lancaster, Santa Barbara, King City, Santa Maria, Rosamond, Calexico, Palmdale and Modesto.
In 2000 and 2001, Radio Nueva Vida underwent a major expansion, leasing three full-power AM stations. They were KLTX (1390 AM) in Long Beach/Los Angeles, KEZY (1240 AM) in Riverside/San Bernardino, and KSDO (1130 AM) in San Diego, all property of Hi-Favor Broadcasting, LLC. On January 1, 2019, Radio Nueva Vida ended the lease with Hi-Favor Broadcasting, and ceased to broadcast on those stations.
In 2010, Radio Neuva Vida began a relationship with the Educational Media Foundation (EMF), the non-profit which operates the English-language Christian radio networks K-Love and Air1; after the discontinuation of the God's Country Radio Network in November 2010, EMF began to carry Radio Nueva Vida on some of its stations, either on the main signal or as an HD Radio subchannel.
In December 2024, EMF reached an agreement to take over the Association for Community Education as its sole member. This will result in its de facto acquisition of Radio Nueva Vida pending FCC approval.[1][2]
Programming and publication
[edit]Radio Nueva Vida's programming format consists of Christian music and teaching talk in Spanish. Its 'In House' programs target the Hispanic community and its current needs. The Sembrador Informativo is the monthly newsletter mailed to its supporters and listeners.
Means of support
[edit]Radio Nueva Vida, a non-profit organization, is listener supported in a manner similar to that of public radio stations. Its listener-supporters are called Sembradores (Seed Sowers). Sembradores are recruited twice a year in pledge drives by the station, though listeners may donate at any time. There is no minimum amount of money required to become a Sembrador; any amount is accepted and all donors are encouraged to contribute whatever they can.
Outreaches
[edit]
Radio Nueva Vida has produced a number of large gatherings entitled: Encounters with God at The Forum in Los Angeles, El Toreo of Tijuana, and in Bakersfield, Fresno, San Bernardino, San Diego, Boise, Idaho, and numerous other locations.
