St. Matthew's Episcopal Church in Enid, Oklahoma, has launched a new low-power FM (LPFM) radio station, KZLS-LP 107.9 FM, as part of its community outreach ministry. The station, which received its construction permit from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), began broadcasting in early 2026.
The programming is a mix of religious content, local news, community announcements, and music. Church leaders stated the station aims to serve the wider Enid area, providing a local voice and strengthening community connections beyond the church's physical walls.
The launch of KZLS-LP is part of a broader trend of religious and community groups utilizing the FCC's LPFM service, which is designed for non-commercial, hyper-local broadcasting. Such stations have a limited broadcast range, typically covering a radius of a few miles.
