Summary/Abstract: Independent socio-religious stations are an important element of the radio market in Poland, where the phenomenon of networking and program formatting is still progressing. After almost 30 years of development of the Catholic radio, its creators present different visions of programs, radio formats and various approaches to evangelistic content. Radio Emaus, which has been analysed in this article, is an existing radio station of the Archdiocese of Poznań for over 23 years. It is the only local Catholic radio station in Poznań and one of the three operating in Greater Poland. In the article, the author presented details of the goals and assumptions of the socio-religious profile (character) of this station and detailed analysis of the program in selected research period. As a result, the scope of implementation by Radio Emaus of the socio-religious profile, information function and others, related to fulfilling the function of the radio as a local medium, has been showed.
