A memorial service for Virginia Rittenhouse Fagal, co-founder of the Faith For Today television ministry, will be held on Saturday, March 27, at 7:00 PM at the Loma Linda University church, 11125 Campus Street, Loma Linda.  Faith For Today will be sponsoring a light reception following the service. 
 
Virginia Fagal and her late husband, William A. Fagal, leave behind a remarkable legacy in Christian television ministry.  Faith For Today began on May 21, 1950 on WABC in New York City as the first television broadcast sponsored by the Seventh-day Adventist Church.  After "Meet the Press," it is the longest running television program in history.  In 1952, Faith For Today started its own Bible School with Virginia as the director of that department.  She remained director until she and Elder Fagal “retired” in 1981, even though they both continued to regularly assist the ministry in whatever capacity that was needed.  Over the years, more than 450,000 people have completed one of Faith For Today’s correspondence courses and at least 30,000 people are known to have joined the church through its ministry. 
 
Among the accolades that have been bestowed upon “the First Lady of Christian Television” are the Irene Morgan Award, presented by The Society of Adventist Communicators in 2002, and the SONscreen Innovation Award, presented to Virginia at the 2004 SONscreen Film Festival.   The Irene Morgan Award honors those who have exemplified courage and integrity, while the SONscreen Innovation Award is for Virginia’s dedicated service in pioneering media ministries.
