Over 1,600 people in the D.C. area celebrated Christmas with Amy Grant and Michael W. Smith to kick off the holidays. This famous duo has been touring together at Christmas since the 1980s. This year’s show reunited them for a nine-show run that made a stop in Tysons Corner, Virginia, a suburb of Washington, D.C. WGTS 91.9 welcomed the sold-out show to the brand-new Capital One Hall, a state-of-the-art theater that just opened this fall.
“Anytime you can bring the listening family together for a night with two legendary artists, you know it’s going to be incredible,” says WGTS morning show host and promotions director Jerry Woods. “You can’t help but leave the show in the Christmas spirit.”
For the first time in over two years, WGTS listeners were able to attend Night of Hope event in-person. Several hundred people came together at the Capital Turnaround in Washington, D.C., to hear worship music from Christian music artist Hope Darst and an inspirational message from Pastor Charles Tapp, who does the WGTS program Simple Truths for Life, and is also our WGTS board chair.

The Salvation Army bell ringing near a red kettle is an iconic symbol of the Christmas season. So recently, the WGTS show producers faced off to see who could raise the most money during one show, ringing the bell at a kettle. For the challenge, morning producer Claude Jennings, midday show producer Spencer White, and evening show producer, Cleavon Davis headed out to different Giant grocery stores in Maryland, Washington, D.C., and Virginia. The outcome: Evening show producer Cleavon Davis and the evening show team raised over $1,200 in four hours. In addition, all the red kettle locations, plus online donations from the virtual kettle, raised over $18,000 for the day.

The WGTS 91.9 staff invites you to watch their latest Words of Hope video with assistant producer and on-air host Claude Jennings on the golf course.
In golf, the objective is to sink the ball in a set number of shots, which we call par. In life, we can feel pressure to reach certain milestones, much like aiming for par in golf. Perhaps it’s, “Graduating from college by the time I’m 25” or “Having two children by the time I’m 30.” But when we fall short of par in life, we can feel frustrated and defeated.
