Radio Esperanza: With over 100,000 daily listeners in South Texas and Northern Mexico, Radio Esperanza has become one of the local favorites. This exciting AM and FM ministry (KRIO 910 AM, KOIR 88.5 FM, KRIO-FM 97.7, and KESO 92.7) beams the Gospel in Spanish into areas where missionaries or pastors may never be able to go. Radio personnel serve the Spanish-speaking community through a variety of music and talk programs. The priorities of Radio Esperanza are: 1) To serve the spiritual and family needs of our listeners through the teaching of the Word of God. 2) Emphasize prayer and minister with music to the lives of our listeners. 3) Provide to our audience information regarding community events that may assist them in their daily needs. It can be accessed online at www.radioesperanza.com.

Bibleville is a non-denominational Bible Conference Center near Alamo, Texas, where "Winter Texans" share their faith and participate in varied activities from November through April. A spacious 800-seat auditorium, palm-lined streets, Christian neighbors, and mission-centered activities make Bibleville an attractive and desirable place to spend the winter or the whole year. Our main emphasis is to minister to Winter Texans and be part of the missionary work of Rio Grande Bible Ministries. Our activities include Bible studies, crafts, dinners, and fellowship times. The Conference Grounds is a fully developed Christian ministry center with nearly 100 hook-up spaces and 180 leased lots for mobile homes to house more than 500 senior citizens.
