WJXY "Rejoice 1200" is an Urban Gospel radio station at 1200 AM, 95.5 and 103.5 FM licensed to Atlantic Beach, South Carolina and targeting a primarily African-American audience.

WJXY signed on in the late 1990s as WMIR with a southern gospel format. After several years, the station changed its musical emphasis, with positive results.

Reggie Dyson, general manager of WMIR, said his station played a role in the 2002 BeachFest and planned live broadcasts from the June 2008 Beachfest, the third event of its type in the area.

On February 10, 2017, WMIR began a simulcast on WXJY "Rejoice FM" in Georgetown.

On June 23, 2017, WMIR changed their call letters to WJXY.
