WNZR/Mount Vernon, OH celebrated 40 years of radio ministry on October 1, marking four decades of God’s faithfulness and being a Lifeline to Knox County. The anniversary celebration featured a WNZR museum, a video journey through four decades of station history, and a story studio for listeners to share how God has used the station to impact their lives.
There were multiple interactive activity rooms for family fun including a photo booth, coloring station, freebies, 40th shirts and hats for sale, and a prayer and praise room. Guests also enjoyed a buffet dinner, ice cream from a local dairy, and opportunities to connect with WNZR staff and current Communication & Media students from Mount Vernon Nazarene University. It was a special time to celebrate WNZR’s legacy, thank the community, and look forward to the future of the ministry.
WNZR officially first went on the air on October 1, 1986 and is a broadcast ministry owned and operated by Mount Vernon Nazarene University (MVNU).

The SpaceX Falcon 9 launch lit up the early morning sky Tuesday, creating a spectacular space jellyfish right over the WPOZ/Orlando (Z88.3) Studios in Altamonte Springs. The pre-dawn liftoff and the rocket’s expanding exhaust plume caught the early sunlight against the dark upper atmosphere, creating a brilliant “space jellyfish” phenomenon visible across Florida and parts of the Southeast.
Thanks to Jim Hoge and Executive Producer Sierra Allmand for sharing pictures of the rocket launch over The Z studios.
