<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nOwners Andr\u00e9 and Bernadette (Berni) Swartz started the proceedings, which included an extensive programme, a meal and jovial speeches. They reminisced about how they started out \u2013 with almost nothing \u2013 and where they are today: bringing the community to unity by being the voice of the people.<\/p>\n
Hattingh Bornman, Speaker: Kouga Municipality, says about the municipality\u2019s relationship with the radio station, that he encountered Oasis FM the first time when he saw their application in the office of the erstwhile mayor, the late Elza van Lingen.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe vision of this radio station resonated with us since the municipality execute practical things, much as Oasis FM envisions \u2013 which is to bring communities together.\u201d<\/p>\n
Bornman added, \u201cThere has been a vast shift over the past twenty years when spiritual oppression was tangible, but their message through the airwaves has played a key part in showing God\u2019s love to the communities. Oasis FM is more than a radio station; it is a movement that unites our people.\u201d<\/p>\n
Andr\u00e9 Swartz makes it clear that there is so much false news on the air, which impacts on people\u2019s minds, that this station has the responsibility to bring them the truth.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is not a two-man show. As a community we stand together to make a change \u2013 together with pastors, NGOs and volunteers,\u201d says Berni.<\/p>\n
Pastor Mercy Cwayi livened up the night with her witticisms as she presented the lucky draws. There were prizes galore sponsored by local businesses, including mall vouchers, treatment, packages, etc. <\/p>\n
The glib-tongued Vernel Levendal (YWAM) auctioned off items ranging from helicopter rides to spa packages and from paintings to adventures for family fun. The bidding was energetic and exuberant as everyone participated to raise funds for Oasis.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
