Thus Radio Mariam broadcasts began with the opening of the Jubilee of Mercy. It is a sign of the Mercy of God in the heart of all Arabic speaking people and a sign of hope for all the suffering and persecuted Christians. This station will be the voice to and from the Arabic speaking Christians in the Middle East and around the world, with their culture and the multifaceted religious heritage of the different churches to which they belong.
