SIC (US 1987) : Early in the 1970s, on a trip to the American west, State College resident, Edgar Palpant enjoyed listening to a Christian radio station and was moved of the Lord to lead an effort to establish a similar station in his hometown. As he shared his vision for Christian radio with others there arose in their hearts too, a desire to see the dream come true. Soon an effort was underway to make it happen, and in June of 1976 the Central Pennsylvania Christian Institute (CPCI) was established as the legal entity that would apply to the FCC for the license to operate Way Truth Life Radio (WTLR).
There followed a long season of earnest supplication to the Lord and hard work until 1:30 pm on January 1, 1978, WTLR's transmitter, then perched atop the Bald Eagle ridge near Stormstown, sent its powerful Christian signal from rented studios into hearts and homes throughout Central Pennsylvania over 89. 9 FM.
As is often the case, the fledgling ministry, though aloft, was unsteady in its flight, but despite some early problems, the hand of the Lord was upon the work. Within a few years, growth in audience and financial support indicated that WTLR had been warmly welcomed by a significant number of Central Pennsylvanians. But the story of CPCI's growth was just beginning.
