Comment: I was happy to call in my Faith Promise of
monthly support to help keep KACS on the
air, filling my life with news of God\'s
love. The best of music praising Him, and
always reassuring me that no matter how bad
life seems to be sometimes, God is still in
control! My only frustration is that at
12:30 p.m. when you are having your prayer
time (I want to hear that and participate!),
at the same time Money Life comes on a
Seattle Christian station, and I have
learned so much from that program that I try
not to miss it. Is it part of the KACS
schedule -- the 1/2-hour program, and not
the short feature from Crown Financial
Ministries at 12:10 p.m.? Othat than that I
have no negative things to say about KACS. I
love MY Chritian radio sation. Keep up the
great work! God\'s blesssings to you.
EDITOR\'s NOTE: We are always open to
programming suggestions from our listeners.
Several of our programs have been added
following up on listener input. We do carry
My Money Life Minutes, and the 1/2-hour
weekend program, but do not currently have
an open 1/2-hour talk program segment for
the daily show.

Comment: Dear KACS, when I called in my Faith Promise
gift during Sharathon the lady volunteer
asked what programs I like. I thought I
would write and tell you. I gety up at 5:00
a.m. to listen to Haven Today, and to pray
for my family. If I'm home I listen to the
prayer requests in the noon hour. Then I
listen to Odyssey at 7:00 p.m., and Chuck
Swindoll's Insights for Living, 8:30 p.m.
Focus on the Family. 10:30 Nightsounds --
what a way to go to sleep! When I cannot
sleep, then I turn on the radio and listen
to the music. I like your mix of old hymns
and new songs. I also like the comedy bits.
I don't know what I would do without you!

Comment: I cannot tell you how happy I am about two
things that took place today. No, make it
three. First and most important of all is
the fact that JESUS took care of me on the
road today. Driving for a living seems to
have more and more hazards and challenges
and I am grateful that my Heavenly Father is
with me every mile of my day. The second
item is this: you paid the respect to our
servicemen and women that they are due. At
times like this it is not a matter of
whether or not we agree with war. Rather, it
is appreciating the sacrifices made by those
men and women who are looking our for our
country DAILY. Thank you for the appropriate
music played on their behalf. I hope to hear
God Bless America and The National Anthem
again on KACS soon. Finally, let me thank
you for the ability to once again listen to
KACS online here at home. For the last two
days I've not been able to go to sleep or
wake up to your programming. Like the great
hymn says,"...to God be the glory, great
things He hath done, and great our
rejoicing, through JESUS the Son..." I
pray that GOD will daily and continuously bless the ministry of KACS. Sincerely, Craig A.

Comment: It took me a while to find you after I moved
from up north but PTL I did. Been listening
for over a year now and so appreciate your
ministry.
I need to tell you though that I have never
heard so much "dead air" as KACS puts out.
I know nothing about radio work but there
must be a way to eleminate the great
emptiness.
Please don't take this as being critical,
just an observation. I am listening no
matter.
In Yeshua, BJ+ EDITORS NOTE: No offense taken. We have been having network system problems for several weeks (months?) and tracking down the exact source has been difficult. The automation network has been losing audio, and going to intermittent silence as short as two seconds, too as long as a couple of minutes. We have also had several satellite feed issues to resolve. A misfed program results in an empty file and sometimes silence (the worst case is missed half-hour programs.) Our automation is programmed to sense for silence and call until it finds the manager, contract engineer, or other volunteer staffer, but often by then the audio has already come back on. Hopefully our volunteer techs will have it resolved soon. If we had the resources for more staff who could work on this each day, perhaps it could be resolved sooner. Of course, until we have more funds for more staffing, including technical staff, we are likely to continue having occasional problems. Have you given your support yet?

blessing to help out your station. One of my

Christian music. It stays with you through

ministry. On October 18th Dr. O'Connor and
friends (The KACS Drama team) came to our
church and presented a program called "God's
Chisel." It was a great blessing to our
church family. I would recommend any church
to have them come and share this powerful
message. We pass along this honorarium to
your ministry. Thank you and God bless!

Comment: Thank you so much for a quality Christian
radio station. The one I was listening to
before finding KACS was filled with
advertisements for everything from insurance
to liposuction to restaurants. They also
played the same songs over and over again.
The main reason I kept listening was because
they offered Focus on the Family, but not
until 10pm, too late for me! I was so
thrilled to discover that you also offer
Adventures in Odessy, a program I grew up on.
Thank you for fostering spirit of prayer and
caring. You are truly a blessing in my home.

Comment: I want to thank Cameron and KACS for
inviting his senior citizen father into the
studios with him during his parent's recent
visit. It was a treat to listen as Cameron
and his father interacted. I was touched by
the obvious connection, tenderness and love
between them. I cannot help but break into
tears and get a little emotional as I say
this because I didn't have such a
relationship with my father. It was very
much appreciated and inspiring. I also
appreciated his dad sharing his experience
as a heart attack survivor, and the tips
Cameron shared from the medical association
on the symptoms of heart attack, and the
health tips to prevent heart attack risks.
Again, it was a treat to listen as they
shared. Thank you. I enjoy listening to the
personal stories the KACS announcers share
each day. I made a point to share some of
the stories Cameron's Dad told with my wife
when she got home. These personal touches
are part of why I turn KACS on every day.
Thank you.

Comment: I cannot tell you what a blessing KACS has
been to me over the past several weeks. I
work for a truck retailer, delivering parts
to customers from the Kitsap Peninsula all
the way down to the Centralia/Chehalis area
and I ran across your station by the design
of our Heavenly Father. I can feel my life
and some of my attitudes changing as I
listen daily to your programming.
Particularly a blessing is listening to your
daily prayer time with your General Manager.
As a result of that prayer time and the
overall programming, I now have the KACS
website set as one of my favorites on my
computer and am even listening now as I
write this note. Oh how I pray that people
not just in this state but in the entire
country could be the recipients of GOD's
blessings and His touch through the ministry
of KACS. May our Heavenly Father bless and
carry the entire staff and ministry of KACS
through current 'spiritual battles'.
BLESSINGS to each of you,

started, and I wanted to call and let you
know that I personally think that KACS is
sounding better right now than it ever has
before. I don't see how you could improve
the mix of music and programs. The blend you
have of older songs, hymns and new music
along with great short informational
programs, news and features provides
something for everyone. Keep up the good
work. Thank you.

suggesting since the weather is also
suggesting...stay home and catch up on

Austin's Bridge to the Thurston County Fair.
I enjoyed the concert immensely, and was
sort of disappointed that the crowd was not
bigger. It was a little too loud for my
ears, but then all concerts are! I will
enjoy their CD at home, and there I can
choose the volume. My radio is always tuned
in to KACS, and I'm never disappointed! Keep
on blessing your listening community. I'm

Comment: Hello,
I listen to your station all the time, while
in my car. The other day you had a guest in
your studio who sang beautifully. I believe
I remember her saying her name was Sheri
with an I, but I can't think of her last
name. If you could send me her name and/or
album name, it would be great. By the way, I
love to hear your mix of music, praising our
Lord Jesus often and hearing the messages
from such blessed Preachers. Thanks again
and may God bless you.
Linda EDITOR's NOTE: The guest was Staci Frenes, and the song was her original acoustic arrangement of a new worship song from her latest CD. The song is called, "What I won't leave Without." She is a great songwriter and performer,and works with World Vision. We were pleased to have her drop by.

Comment: God is great, and he has really blessed this
community with a wonderful Christian radio
station -- KACS. As a continued supporter
I'm increasing my monthly gift by another
$5. I wanted to write and let you know of a
person that had helped me when I was at a
crossroad in my life. After dealing with
several kinds of abuse, I tried to find
someone to trust by acting out. I'd pretend
to have hallucinations or pass out. There
were hospitals and many tests trying to
determine what was wrong, but no one ever
really asked my heart. One day a teacher,
Mr. Meyer, said, "You can keep going down
this road you are on, or choose another path
that is better." He presented me with a
choice, somthing I never had before. I chose
the other path, and now many years later God
has put me in a position that I can possibly
help someone else. God has always been part
of my life, and has always guarded that
special light inside me. There is so much
more I could share with you, but to put pen
to paper would take much longer. So for now
I hope this small piece will let you know
how God has put someone in my life when I
needed it most. May God also bless you all.

Comment: I have been listening to your station since
we moved to Yelm in 1998. Subsequently,
after the death of my husband, I moved to
Spanaway. I am very thankful that I can
still get the station. I know that last
year during the fundraising, I was the first
person to call from my area. I do enjoy
your music, especially, although I do listen
to other programs also.
I became a Christian as a teenager, and have
followed Christ ever since. I would say
that the one who most influenced me during
those years was my mother. She was a Godly
woman who, for many years taught Bible
studies and Sunday School to adults.
I truly love the Lord with all my heart and
love to worship Him. I pray that the time
spent raising funds will be very
fruitful and the money needed will be
raised. I will call during the actual time
to give what I feel God would have me give.
God bless all of you.

Casey as host each morning (Today's

Reminds me often of the times when Sherman
at my church would speak with me. (He's now
deceased)For example, I was irritated one
day with my kids at church & Sherman, an
older man, come over to me and took my hand.
He said, "We were young fellas once too."
I
appreciate my older brothers in Christ doing
things like that. We men don't have all the
answers. Thanks for programs that help us be

shared have been instrumental in keeping our
marriage strong and healthy for over four
decades. Among the challenges we've faced
have been cancer, financial struggles, loss
of employment, and children who have
wandered from the Lord. Through it all,

unconditional love for every member of our
family. Thank you for impacting our lives,

NOTE: Amy, we are indeed living in exciting times. In fact the scriptures are filled with an urgency about Christ's return. The big point is (remember his parable of the wise and foolish wedding party memebers; five prepared, and five who weren't?) living each day as though he were coming now.

you for your tremendous suppurt in helping

Office & Division of Emergeny Management)
get our important emergency messages
distributed to the public, both during and
prior to our recent flood event. Our
continuing partnership is critical in making
a positive difference to those we serve.
------------
Sherrif, I cannot thank your department
enough for the extraordinary disaster
warnings and preparations. You let us all
know early on what was happening, giving
people as much time as possible to make
preparations, minimize property damage and
find other places to go if needed. I have a
co-worker who was flooded out last year who
just got her house back together. They
managed to get everything up off the ground
and even tore up the carpets to minimize
mold and mildew problems. I work for a
chilren\'s service and our area manager
quoted you when she said she would have no
excuse for not planning as carefully and as
far in advance as possible. She did a great
job, and we thank you again for all your
help and advice. This is the best planning,
coordination and action taken in local
government I have seen in a long time. --

program times were "like they used to be"!
Oh well, do you call it progress?
EDITOR'S NOTE: The programs mentioned were primarily
designed for adults with enough mature
subject matter that we followed the majority
of our listeners' preference to provide them
at a time when younger ears were not
