Delete: We've tightened our notability standards over the years (especially since 2021, at least in this topic area), and it's hard to imagine a small religious station, even if it has been around since around 1995, getting the sufficient significant coverage needed (and the only coverage under this call sign indicates the only other potential future for a page at this title is a redirect to NewsNet, but I think that would be premature for now). (It has a license in the class A television service, implying some local programming is—or at least was—supposed to exist, but Wikipedia requires verifiable evidence of that.) Note that this station used to be W50CH-D (and, in the analog days, just W50CH) before the FCC eliminated television channels above 36 a few years back; based on searches, it appears the only coverage of this station on Stltoday, the website of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, are some passing mentions of the channel change that could not possibly be construed as significant coverage of the station itself.
