Fabián Coria grew up surrounded by violence since childhood, which deeply affected his emotional health and caused serious sleep disorders. For years, he consulted with different professionals who prescribed medication to alleviate his symptoms, but nothing could fill the deep void he felt in his heart.

Everything changed the day that he tuned into Radio Nuevo Tiempo, the Spanish Adventist television and radio station in Central and South America. To his surprise, he found hope in the messages he heard, something he had been searching for for years.

“I never imagined what God had in store for me. I don’t know what my life would be like without Nuevo Tiempo,” he says with gratitude. Thanks to the radio station, Fabián found the path to the spiritual healing he longed for.

This is just one of the many stories that reflect the impact of the radio station's work in Argentina. This impact is made possible thanks to the support of the Ángeles de Esperanza (Angels of Hope), whose generosity allows the station to continue reaching individuals through their broadcasts.

This year, Nuevo Tiempo Argentina was able to achieve important goals thanks to the support of the Angels of Hope, a group of donors committed to the mission of this Adventist communication network.

The goals achieved included operational improvements, radio expansion and the launch of new Bible study materials.

Strengthening the Bible School

José Peñafiel, director of Nuevo Tiempo Argentina, highlighted that one of the main achievements was the growth and optimization of the Bible School. “Every week we send materials and books to many corners of the country. Thanks to the Angels of Hope, these shipments are made without interruptions, allowing the message of hope to reach hundreds of people.”

In addition, four new Bible study guides were printed this year, exceeding 2,000 copies per edition. “These guides are a gift to those who receive them. They allow us to connect with more people and guide them toward a closer relationship with God,” added Peñafiel.

Renewal and Radio Expansion

Another important milestone was the improvement of equipment in radio stations in the North Argentine Conference, one of the administrative headquarters of the Adventist Church in the country. Maximiliano Porto, responsible for Communication in the region, shared images of the ongoing renovations and highlighted the collaborative work of the entire network.

Nuevo Tiempo also expanded its reach in Rosario by acquiring a broadcast license for this city, which has approximately 1.3 million inhabitants.

“It is a huge achievement to be able to reach more people with our message in such a big city,” said Yanet de los Santos, director of the station in Rosario.

Gratitude and Growing Mission

Ingrid Cárdenas, coordinator of Angels of Hope, stressed the importance of continued support from donors. “Each angel of hope is an active part of this mission. Thanks to them, we can continue to grow and bring hope to more homes,” she said.

Peñafiel concludes with an invitation for more people to join. “Being an angel of hope is being part of our family. We pray for them and deeply value their collaboration, which is as important as any of our radios or programs. Each donation is one more step towards reaching those who need it most,” he explains.
