About us


The Christian Media Trust is an Interdenominational Christian Church Broadcasting Body based in Wexford Ireland.

In 1988 Dr. Brendan Comiskey, Roman Catholic Bishop of Ferns established the Christian Media Trust (CMT). As he foresaw that Local Radio “could become the New Pulpit” he purchased a major shareholding in South East Radio (SER). He financed the building a recording studio in the campus of St. Peter’s College Seminary, Summerhill, Wexford (now the Carlow IT Campus).

A group of volunteers appointed by the Bishop underwent media training at the Catholic Communications Centre, Dublin prior to the opening of SER. A Radio Diploma Course in conjunction with St Patrick’s College Maynooth was held in Wexford in 1990. Other external training was undertaken with BBC in London and Kairos in Maynooth

The Bishop invited the Church of Ireland, The Methodist and Presbyterian Churches in County Wexford to join the Trust when the studio was completed. The studio was officially blessed and opened by the four Church Leaders on 21st September 1989.

The Trust has charitable status and is run by a Board of twelve voluntary members who are nominated by Roman Catholic Church, Church of Ireland, Presbyterian and Methodist Churches annually.
