At his death on February 15, 2002, the remaining officers of the corporation not only kept his program on the air, but also began to develop plans to build KQLC-LP, a low power FM radio station for which he had made application before his death, and to offer scholarships to college students.

Skip brings not only technical skill to his work, but brings a pastor's heart to our ministry with you. A part of what he does is visit with folks in the community about how we can best serve the community and to imvolve you in being a part of our radio ministry. Why don't you give us a call or click on the "contact us" to arrange a visit with Skip at the station.

Meet our Resident Audio and Video Consultant, Steve Stone. It's great to have Steve nearby so that we can take advantage of his incredible background in media, particularly audio and video production. He has years of experice in "running the sound board" in services of worship and special productions, and he is invaluable to us as we move into producing more radio spots and training volunteers to do live radio shows. You'll enjoy meeting and working with Steve if you join the volunteers of KQLC-LP and create your own show.

L.C. Orrick, helped untold numbers of young people from all walks of life get into college. It was his dream to some day offer financial assistance to diligent but average students, because he believed that help is often unavailable to them. He believed along with his denomination, that a warm heart and an enlightened mind were essential in life and in faith. Rev. Orrick would ask young people like those waiting on him in restaurants or ringing up his purchases in stores about their college plans.

KQLC-LP Broadcast Standards

Fri, 14 Sep 2007 05:55:02 GMT

Our broadcast standards are just another way of saying, Lets be a good neighbor to each other on the air, respecting the variety of ways we seek God, and honoring the trust placed in us by the community we serve. Bob Luton, General Manager NO PROSELYTIZING Proselytizing as it is used here means the act of seeking members to join one faith group at the expense of another faith group. This is usually done by suggesting that one faith group is superior to another, being critical of others beliefs, or making suggestions that members of another faith are wrong in the way they may interpret the tenets of the faith for the express purpose of convincing members to move away from the faith group in question. Visitors may be encouraged to become part of a faith or to make a commitment to God or to Jesus Christ, but it is not acceptable for visitors to be asked, encouraged, or coerced to move from one faith group to another. NO MALIGNING Maligning as it is used here means the...

More About Our Founder...

Thu, 13 Sep 2007 06:10:36 GMT

Our founder, Rev. L.C. Orrick, for many years opened the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo with a special prayer. But I guess thats jumping a bit ahead. L.C. was born September 14, 1933 in Rotan, Texas to Mary Loretta and Cyrus Orrick. and had a brother named Kim Brent Orrick. A retired United Methodist minister at the time of his death on February 15, 2002, Rev. Orrick had served churches for more than 50 years including student appointments. His appointments were: Summerfield (1952-53), Elysian Fields Circuit (1953-56), Beckville (1956-60), Naples (1960-66), Port Arthur St. Marks (1966-69), Houston St. Philips (1969-84), and Houston Fair Haven (1984-2001). The Sunday before his death, he preached at the first service of worship of the Believers Fellowship he was instrumental in organizing. He had a major role in inspiring candidates for the ministry. He received an Associate of Arts Degree from Lon Morris College in 1952 and a Bachelor of Arts degree from Centenary College...

About How The Station Came To Be

Thu, 13 Sep 2007 05:04:19 GMT

Please click on links in the text to see our picture albums! At the Dedication and Open House on April 18, 2004, Rev. Bob Luton gave these remarks to briefly review how KQLC-LP came about... I first met L.C. Orrick in 1983 when I served as an Associate Minister with him. About 4 years before that, he had started a radio program called The Hour of Hope and had set up a little non-profit religious corporation to nest it in. His mom and his brother were the other trustees, and they met over a cup of coffee when he went home to Longview for Christmas to conduct their annual business. Fred Riepen, did the foundational legal work back then, (and continues to help us) and The Hour of Hope has been on the air ever since. Most recently, KHCB has continued to air the program on its network of 14 stations covering a large part of Texas for more than 10 years. When L.C. started editing the program it was long before the days of digital editing, and I would see him use splicing...

Why Not Politics?

Sun, 09 Sep 2007 01:03:43 GMT

Why Not Politics?

Of course, human beings are political creatures especially when decisions affecting all of us need to be made and leaders need to be elected. Our board and our station are not unmindful of the proper place of politics in community life.

However, KQLC-LP does not permit on the air content concerning political candidates and elections other than urging everyone to vote. To air content of that kind places at serious legal risk our very existence as a religious non-profit organization. Even airing public service announcements about events which have a broad political purpose creates issues for us. Of course, issues of community interest may be discussed, but extreme care must be taken that these not be veiled endorsements for certain candidates or parties. We are bound by FCC regulations to log all requests for political content, but we politely and respectfully refuse those opportunities.

“LPFM licensees are to have a complete record of all requests for broadcast time made by or on behalf of candidates for public office, together with an appropriate notation showing the disposition made by the licensee of such requests, and the charges made, if any, if the request was granted.”

2 Corinthians 5:17-21

Wed, 05 Sep 2007 02:41:55 GMT

2 Corinthians 5:17-21

So if anyone is in Christ, there is a new creation: everything old has passed away; see, everything has become new! All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation; that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting the message of reconciliation to us. So we are ambassadors for Christ, since God is making his appeal through us; we entreat you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.

Putting the temptation to preach a sermon on these passages aside, we hope it’s clear when you read those passages what our board sees our overall mission to be as an agent of encouragement to all in Christ as we proclaim reconciliation in community.

Philippians 2:1-11

Wed, 05 Sep 2007 02:37:40 GMT

Philippians 2:1-11

If then there is any encouragement in Christ, any consolation from love, any sharing in the Spirit, any compassion and sympathy, make my joy complete: be of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind. Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility regard others as better than yourselves. Let each of you look not to your own interests, but to the interests of others. Let the same mind be in you that was in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not regard equality with God as something to be exploited, but emptied himself, taking the form of a slave, being born in human likeness. And being found in human form, he humbled himself and became obedient to the point of death—even death on a cross. Therefore God also highly exalted him and gave him the name that is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bend, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

About LPFM and Our License at KQLC-LP

Wed, 05 Sep 2007 02:24:50 GMT

LPFM is a noncommercial educational service, so it may be licensed only to nonprofit or noncommercial entities.

What’s A Non- Commercial Station?

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) grants licenses to two types of radio stations: commercial and non-commercial. Commercial radio stations are licensed to a group of investors who make money on station profits. Non-commercial radio stations are licensed to a variety of non-profit entities ranging from state agencies to school boards, universities, and community groups. Historically, most non-commercial stations were owned, operated, and financed by educational institutions. But since 1949, when the

first Pacifica station was founded, non-commercial licenses have been granted to non-profit corporations of community individuals. These are community radio stations.

What’s LPFM?

In January 2000, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted rules creating a new, low power FM radio (LPFM) service. Under these rules, small community groups are allowed to reach out via ordinary radio signals to listeners in local areas. In April 2000, the Commission began soliciting for applications from community groups who wished to start stations under these new rules. Applicants were to be non-commercial, local groups.

How Was KQLC-LP Licensed?

The LPFM construction permit for which Rev. L.C. Orrick applied before his death on February 14, 2002 was granted by the FCC on 08/26/2002.

Once the former nursery site was selected, a minor modification was submitted to the FCC which was granted this application on 12/10/2003. This authorization would expire on 02/26/2004 unless the station was on the air by that time.

With just a few days to spare, program tests were completed and reported to the FCC on February 19, 2004. The request to grant a full license was granted on 03/03/2005.

We made some modifications to the tower to improve our signal and asked the FCC to approve the changes which were granted on 08/10/2005. The license to cover that permit was granted on March 6, 2007.

Our license renewal through 08/01/2013 was granted on 5/09/2007.
