Looking forward to Christmas… and beyond!
November 30, 2020 by Tony Weir
I keep reading that this year, people are looking forward to Christmas more than ever.
The phrase “if we’ve ever needed Christmas, it’s NOW!” popped into my head. That reminds me of the Casting Crowns song, “If we’ve ever needed JESUS… it’s now.” And isn’t that what Christmas is all about? The world NEEDED Jesus… and He came.
That is such a powerful message and one we will be proclaiming throughout the Christmas season, and beyond!
YOUR support keeps this message of hope going out over radio waves and the Internet every day to tens of thousands who need to hear it. This year, so many listeners have been beaten down by their circumstances. Your support has given them the strength to get back up and keep moving forward.
Many people have had to press pause on so many things, postponing normal day-to-day goals and even the pursuit of future hopes and dreams. We experienced this too. In early 2020, The House was very close to launching an expansion of our presence and outreach in the Oklahoma City area… but knew the best thing was to wait. As you may expect, the financial gifts that support this ministry dropped significantly… but through special fundraisers and gifts like yours, the deficit was erased! Ministry continued as you joined together with other listeners to make up for those unable to give. What a family!
With a strong foundation, The House again prayerfully looks forward.
Through a special event on Giving Tuesday and the day after, The House is asking for $96,000 to jumpstart the Oklahoma City project. This amount would help prepare the ground for a new studio and public presence in the Metro area that would become the base of an expanded outreach. Ultimately, this strategy will help The House reorganize resources to better serve ALL listening areas, from Wichita to Lawton and everywhere in between.
You can be a part of making these dreams of having a bigger presence in our communities and a deeper relationship with our listeners a reality!
Will you please join in this special year-end fundraiser with a gift today?
