WSRY (1550 AM) is a radio station broadcasting an urban gospel music format.
The day was Thursday, August 22, 1963, and as "the transmitter came to life with regular programming for Cecil County" listeners heard a special opening ceremony.
Van Sice, pastor of the First Baptist Church of Elkton, gave the invocation.

Brian Barrabee's First Philadelphia Properties sold the station in late 1999 to a Delaware-based religious group (Faith City Church) and it became a Moody Broadcasting affiliate in February 2000, later simulcasting WXHL-FM's Contemporary Christian music programming.
