The Covenant Network maintains studios inSt. Louis, Missouri, where it owns two AM stations feeding three FM translators. Covenant stations carryEWTN Radio programming as well as network productions and other Catholic radio shows.

Covenant was the brainchild of Tony and Teresa Holman, who met in St. Louis and felt a calling to share their faith. After looking for stations to buy, Covenant Network began broadcasting May 1, 1997, onWRYT, licensed toEdwardsville, Illinois.^[1] After using the Illinois studios acquired from WRYT, Covenant bought a former dance studio on Hampton Avenue in St. Louis^[2] and began producing programming. In 1998, Covenant acquired its second station, the former WTIM inTaylorville, Illinois, and renamed itWIHM.^[2]

In 2005, Covenant added a second frequency in the St. Louis area when it acquired KIRL inSt. Charles, Missouri and relaunched it asKHOJ.^[3]

In 2019, Covenant agreed to purchaseWQNA in Springfield, Illinois, from Capital Area Career Center for $47,000; Covenant was already heard there on two translators.^[4]
