We've made our way into the Easter Season, so death has been conquered. Eternal life is promised to us when we tak up our own Cross to follow Him. Fear has fled and hope has replaced despair. If anyone has taught us the example of hope overpowering despair - it was Pope Francis - who courageously for 12 years has led the Church with conviction, love and joy. Pope Francis passed from this life into eternal life at 7:35 a.m. Rome time on Monday. Biographers and historians will build a comprehensive picture of his life and accomplishments - but for so many Catholics and non-Catholics, Pope Francis was the human face of God's tenderness. We will remember him as bringing God closer to humanity and humanity striving to imitate the love of God among our brothers and sisters.

Event Announcements FCC Applications Our Mission WJMJ Public Inspection File About WJMJ WJMJ Radio is an educational, non-commercial FM radio station licensed to Saint Thomas Seminary and is operated by ORTV, Inc. WJMJ was founded in 1976 by the late Archbishop John F. Whealon as the first archdiocesan operated radio station in the United States, and was the result of a vision brought forth by the Second Vatican Council. It was Archbishop Whealon's goal to create a radio station that would offer the Good News of Christ to a wider listening audience through a format of inspiring messages and pleasant music. WJMJ's first broadcast was on Christmas Eve, December 24, 1976. On October 5, 2018, Archbishop Leonard P. Blair pressed the button that raised the transmission power of the station's new transmitter to 100% as allowed by its Federal Communications Commission's license. WJMJ's new transmitter broadcasts both the traditional FM signal on 88.9 FM as well as three digital HD Radio channels. Listeners with HD Radio receivers in their cars, homes or businesses will hear a superior quality sound on HD-1, the channel simultaneously carrying WJMJ's music and information mix. On the other HD channels, listeners can hear Catholic programming from EWTN Global Catholic Radio. The EWTN programs are in Spanish on WJMJ HD-2 and in English on WJMJ HD-3. This allows WJMJ to better serve an audience that wants to hear traditional Catholic programming and Connecticut's growing Hispanic population. WJMJ extends it broadcast reach with repeater translators located in Hamden at 93.1 FM and New Haven at 107.1 FM. With its broadcast network, WJMJ is able to reach and serve a vast listening audience throughout central and south western Connecticut and south central Massachusetts; and globally with its live Internet stream. ORTV, Inc. is a tax-exempt organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and is included as a subordinate organization under a Group Exemption Ruling issued by the IRS to the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). As indicated in the most recent IRS Group Ruling Determination Letter, contributions to the subordinate organizations included in the USCCB group ruling are deductible for federal income, estate and gift tax purposes under sections 170, 2055, 2106 and 2522 of the Internal Revenue Code. As a non-profit organization and a non-commercial radio station, WJMJ relies on the charitable contributions from faithful listeners like you to continue to provide the quality programming that you've come to appreciate as well as enable WJMJ to introduce new programming.
