Its programming is dedicated to songs by artists from the Graça Music label, broadcasts of services and preaching by the missionary R. R. Soares, and Pastor Jayme de Amorim Campos presents the program Na Mesa com o Senhor, which is broadcast live simultaneously by the stations of the Nossa Rádio network. The network also has a news program and public participation.
History
In 2002, missionary R. R. Soares already had a presence on the radio through Rádio Relógio in Rio de Janeiro and Rádio Gospel in São Paulo, the latter facing litigation regarding its transmission location. In addition to radios, there was an expansion process of its television network, the RIT. In the second half of the same year, the missionary reached an agreement with businessman Orestes Quércia and leased two FM stations owned by him in Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo. The new project was called "Nossa Rádio."[3]
In Rio de Janeiro, Nossa Rádio went on air on October 1, 2002, replacing the NovaBrasil FM branch. In São Paulo, the station debuted on December 1, 2002, replacing Manchete Gospel FM, which had migrated to its own frequency and was renamed Gospel FM.[3]
Since 2018, Nossa Rádio has had a presence in the United States with the formation of Nossa Rádio USA, with programming similar to that of the Brazilian radio network and content aimed at Portuguese-speaking residents.[4]
