The Hope Channel was launched October 10, 2003 by Adventist Television Network (ATN).
The official launch of the network will be held tomorrow at the Marantha Hall during the Church’s session.
Chief Executive of local Adventist TV Station here Alfred Maesulia said it had taken years to get the station up and running due to lack of facilities and funds.
He said now that the funds are made available plus support from other organizations like Our Telekom the Channel can now be relayed and transmitted to local viewers.
In the coming months local church programs will be aired in the TV.
The Adventist church acquired its license to operate in 2007.
Our Telekom has assisted the church by providing a tower to allow the station to broadcast its programs.

Media centers are being opened and expanded in strategic locations to ensure production of quality programming.
And Solomon Islands is one of the latest inclusion.
So far many local Adventist viewers have welcomed the new service.
