West Africa Transmitting Station Broadcasts

In February 2008, TWR began broadcasting the good news of the gospel in a number of languages languages on what is known as our West Africa Transmitting Station or WATS.

Exactly 12 years later, in February of 2020, TWR expanded the reach of WATS by adding a second 200,000-watt transmitter, which we call known as "Oasis," to reach into Nigeria, one of the most deadliest places in the world to be a Christian.

The numerous hostile groups of this region, and many others, desperately need to hear a clear, accurate presentation of the gospel’s messages of love, redemption and reconciliation. But many believers also need the broadcasts, whether it’s spiritual encouragement or trustworthy, biblically solid teaching. Some church leaders are not well-grounded in Scripture and a trend toward health-and wealth-type theology can result in mass disillusionment.

Adding the 200,000-watt AM Oasis transmitter at WATS was essential to meet the huge gospel-broadcasting needs of Nigeria and surrounding areas. And the existing 100,000-watt AM transmitter has been freed up to provide more hours of programming in the many other heart languages of West Africa.

Your gift to support broadcasts on our West Africa Transmitting Stations will truly be an Oasis to listeners in this spiritually needy region of Africa.
