In Loving Memory
Founder and President Lealon Lamar Owens
July 30, 1932 - August 10, 2001
Bro. Lealon had been broadcasting his "Glory to God Hour" at the station for two years, when God gave him the vision of full-Christian programming on TV-53. Bro. Lealon originated his idea of Christian television in 1987, after
the management of the secular station announced that the station would be closing. Just as the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ was born in a cold manger in Bethlehem, so was the birth of Christian television in Booneville, MS. Coming into this world was not an easy task. In
December 1987, in a little 10'x 20' tin storage building, Christian television programming was given to local viewers. TV-53 was only an UHF station with a one hundred (100) watt transmitter. Bro. Lealon and several dedicated volunteers found a way to make a dream come true. The
owners of the station agreed to let Bro. Lealon Owens hold a "Praise-a-Thon" for twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week for, not coincidentally, 53 days. "It was 53 days for TV-53". Volunteers manned the phones while many preachers and singing groups took their messages and music to the people and success was achieved. One
person called near the end of the Praise-a-Thon and pledged $53.00 for TV-53 starting a trend that took TV-53 beyond their goal. At the end of the 53 days, supportive viewers and volunteers had donated money and auction items to accumulate twenty-six thousand three hundred dollars ($26,300). In
January 1988, UBN and a board of directors were formed to oversee the management of the station. Through continued support from viewers and others, TV-53 has grown by leaps and bounds. After this time the Lord blessed us with a 20 x 28 addition to the tin building for a temporary studio to continue broadcasting until March 1990. UBN
purchased 5.4 acres of land, including a house. This purchase enabled the station to expand to two offices and a studio. On
April 26, 1996, UBN was granted income tax exemption under the Internal Revenue Code, 501 ( c ) (3) and became a government sanctioned non-profit organization. From that humble beginning in Booneville Ms. to Russellville Al. to Adamsville Tn. Selmer TN. Humboldt TN. to Fulton Ms. to Tuscumbia Al. to Pontotoc Ms. we
are 7 stations strong spreading the gospel to all the people in between those cities and states. God has been faithful as so have all the friends and partners of this network. Please continue to pray for us as we all labor together for the kingdom of God.
Thank you for your giving spirit and faithfulness to Unity Broadcasting Network, and the DREAM lives on. We love you all!!!
