History


Originally known as "Milwaukee Youth For Christ," and later, "Greater Milwaukee Youth For Christ," it left the national YFC organization in 1973 and became known as the Wisconsin Voice of Christian Youth (WVCY) until 1995, when it changed to its present name.



Radio Network


The ministry operates 28 VCY America-owned radio stations in Arizona, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Mexico, Ohio, South Dakota, Texas, West Virginia, and Wisconsin and 15 low-power translators.[1] VCY America radio also provides programming such as Crosstalk, Worldview Weekend, and Music 'til Dawn to stations throughout the country via satellite.



Programming


VCY America's radio programming includes Christian Talk and Teaching programming, among them:

*Crosstalk, hosted by Jim Schneider and formerly by Vic Eliason

*Worldview Weekend with Brannon Howse

*Grace to You with John MacArthur

*In Touch with Charles Stanley

*Love Worth Finding with Adrian Rogers

*Revive Our Hearts with Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth

*The Alternative with Tony Evans

*Liberty Counsel's Faith and Freedom Report

*Back to Genesis, by the Institute for Creation Research

*Thru the Bible with J. Vernon McGee

*Joni and Friends

*Unshackled!

*Moody Radio's Stories of Great Christians[2]


VCY America also airs a variety of vocal and instrumental traditional Christian Music, as well as children's programming such as Ranger Bill.[2] Notably, the network (including WVCY-TV) eschews any programs featuring Contemporary Christian music, and has dropped programming which has switched to it in any form, including as theme music.



Television


The network also runs WVCY-TV (Channel 30) out of Milwaukee, which does hold a commercial license but is completely viewer/listener supported. An agreement was reached in the FCC's repack of frequencies in television, that Channel 30 in Milwaukee would be shared on WITI-TV 6's carrier. As a result of TV-30 leaving its original frequency, the ministry received a payment from the Federal government an amount in excess of $75 million.


On July 18, 2012, VCY America was granted a license for W26EE-D on digital channel 26 in Wittenburg, Wisconsin.[3]



Other efforts


The ministry also operates a summer camp, near Hillsboro, Wisconsin, called, "Trail Ridge Camp,"[4] as well as the "VCY Bookstore" in Milwaukee, which is also online.



Leadership


The ministry is run by a team formerly headed by the late Vic Eliason, a former Youth for Christ worker, ordained Christian minister and a recipient of an honorary doctorate from Bob Jones University, in 2001.[5] Randy Melchert is the current leader.
