Warrior Fellowship Seal

Bible Study Net

Calling all Hams – You are invited to join us for our very first Warriornotes Radio Fellowship & Bible Study this Sunday at 3:00pm Central on the K5CCL UHF Repeater 444.050 (RX) / 449.050 (TX), TSQL, PL Tone 136.5

We would love to have you be our very first check-ins on what we plan will be a weekly Bible Study. Please invite ham friends and family—and we always welcome non-hams as 3rd-party traffic under your station's direction.



What to expect:

Warrior Fellowship Church

Before the net: If you have time, please send an email to bryan.aho@gmail.com and I will add you to a mailing list to send you a copy of each week's Bible Lesson in PDF format so you can follow along during our study.

Warriornotes Radio Fellowship & Bible Study isn't associated with any church and is non-denominational. Also, we do not accept offerings—this net is run solely by volunteers. If the Lord does lead you to give, we suggest donations of food to your local Food Pantry.

We hope to hear you on the air!
