A COMPANY KEEPER
by Billy Irvin, Director of Ministry Relations
In 1987, Annie Gibson and her family moved to Union Springs from Miami and were blessed to find Faith Radio/WLBF. She has enjoyed listening and supporting the ministry of Faith Radio for almost 40 years. Annie loves the Lord Jesus and testifies that she has navigated much of her life with Faith Radio, which she refers to as her company keeper. She needed company the most when she grieved the passing of her husband in 2019, the loss of her son during the pandemic, and a journey with cancer treatments last year. “I go to bed listening to Faith Radio, and I wake up listening. I never miss a day of listening to WLBF! When I am by myself, I’d feel so alone if it weren’t for my radio. Faith Radio is my company keeper. This ministry has blessed my life and has become part of my family.”
Annie is a precious Christian lady with a faith-filled family. We were blessed to visit with her recently on her 85th birthday and deliver a Christmas cross for her yard. Annie shared, “I love my cross! I live on a busy highway, and people I don’t even know are touched every day by this cross. It brings me joy when people ask me about my cross, and it gives me an opportunity to tell the story of Jesus.” Annie’s countenance is uplifted by tuning into Faith Radio daily. She wants to use all that she has to shine for Jesus. Annie said, “I love supporting this ministry, and I’m grateful for all the others that financially support Faith Radio so that I can continue listening.”
