The Desert Ministries Radio Hour is aired every Saturday from 2:00 - 3:00 p.m. on AM 660 KCRO.

 Through live music and encouraging stories of faith, we minister to many people who are shut in their homes or facilities.  Phone-ins also provide the voice of conversation and social interaction as well as the listening ear for the elderly to voice their valued concerns.
