Hello, So Long, Farewell, Goodbye

Hello,

Goodbye, So Long, Farewell. GSG Radio is going off the air. I have fought the fight as long as I could. I can no longer run the race. Pressing toward the mark is out of the question now. My faith grows dim.

Since early November I have been disabled to work, and following Doctors orders, filed for disability income and Medicaid. Major heart trouble and macular degeneration are the main culprits both complicated by diabetes. My wife is working but I can’t. I have gone a long time without any income, and according to the Disability Determination Services I have a while to go before a decision is made. My bills continue, including rent, car payment, insurance, 13 prescriptions, groceries, Internet, etc… My savings is gone, my wife can’t afford everything, and my son has done about all he can do. Tony Partigianoni, Linwood Grant, Marla Conrad, and Tabitha Williard have been so kind to provide my wife and I with financial gifts. But the time has now come to decide which medicines to keep and which ones to do without? How few groceries can we get by with? Can we get by without doing laundry this week? Do I buy a quart of oil or a gallon of gas? So you see the station must go as well as the Internet connection.

I will notify the record labels this week about my decision. The station has had a good run and has averaged 60,000 to 65,000 listeners each week. Truly heard all over the World, hopefully someday we can bring it back.

May God Bless,

Randy Renigar

Randy, What can I do to help? You have been so good to our group, by playing our music. You will never know how much you have helped us by getting our name out there. I'm sure God has a plan for you! Don't give up! In the name of Jesus I pray that our good Lord will lay His mighty hand upon you and your family! I bind the devil in Jesus name from trying to steal, kill and destroy! In Jesus name! Amen! Hold fast to God's unchanging hand my friend! Remember you still have a song, though the enemy rages!
Many many blessings! Let me know how I can help! Jimmy Howson/DaySpring

Randy...Pardoned would like to say Thanks for all you have done for us as a ministry. You are a true man of God. Tje enemy wants to stop the station, and the spreading of the gospel in song. But, we know we have the victory! God did not bring you this far to leave you, adn we know without a shadow of a douby, he is already interceding as we write this on your behalf. Pardoned will be sending a love gift and we want to challenge all who support gospel music to sow a seed in this ministry of Randys. You have truly shown the meaning of love and concern for new and upcoming regional artists out there, who without you, would not be getting any recognition at all. We love and appreciate you, and we know we will be hearing that GSG Radio will remain on the air! God Bless you..In Jesus..Gina, Lee and Lindsay... Pardoned

Randy,

Thank you for being such an ecouragement to our ministry and for playing our music. Especially for the kind review on the song I wrote "When The Master Calls Me Home", the song means so much to me on a personal basis and even more when I read your review. My prayer for you is healing as well as finacial blessings. I pray the listeners will join hands with us in trying to help you and your family and I also pray to hear the station will keep going. You're in my thoughts and prayers. We love GSG Radio! In his service, Lindsay...Pardoned
