Sky Angel to Reach Record Chattanooga TN Crowd on May 31 as a Jfest 2008 Title Sponsor

CLEVELAND, Tenn., May 30 /Christian Newswire/ -- Sky Angel, a national provider of faith-based and family-friendly television and radio programming, will reach record crowds at Jfest 2008 on May 31 at Camp Jordan in Chattanooga.

Sky Angel recently introduced a new subscription service through Internet Protocol TV (IPTV). Subscribers get great programming on their TV, but instead of needing a dish or cable hook-up, only a high-speed connection and Sky Angel's special set- top box is needed.

Sky Angel features the widest variety of Christian channels ever made available in one package by a television service provider, and now includes more than 70 channels of inspirational programming choices including many popular mainstream family channels, news, weather and sports.

"This is an exciting time for Sky Angel. We introduced our new IPTV platform in February and participating in Jfest gives our team an opportunity to share the great programming we're known for - now with over 70 television and radio channels --and an opportunity to share the numerous advantages that IPTV technology provides. We are adding new channels regularly, and can now offer 48-hour playback on our faith channels which allows viewers to select from more than 2,000 faith-based programs at any one time. With our Video On Demand feature we have a terrific lineup of both free and fee-based programs," said Tom Scott, President and COO.

Jfest attendees can enter to win a free Sky Angel set- top box and 30 days of programming in addition to other giveaways that will be available throughout the event. This is the 10th annual Jfest fundraising event brought to the community by radio station J103 and also benefits ministry partner Food for the Hungry. This year's lineup includes well-known artists including Big Daddy Weave; Newsong; Matthew West; Building 429; Vicki Beeching; Scott Krippayne; and Steve Fee.

"We are pleased to partner with J103 by sponsoring an event of this magnitude. It's the perfect opportunity for Sky Angel to introduce our faith-based and family- friendly programming to J103 listeners and the Chattanooga area as a whole," said Karole Davis, Director of Public Relations.

Sky Angel's mission is to build and operate a global communications system as the most effective means of assuring that the Gospel will penetrate every nation, culture and people. Three monthly subscription packages are available starting at $14.99. Information is available online at http://www.skyangel.com or calling 1-800-SKY-ANGEL (1-800-759-2643).
