Friend Raiser Results

It was an amazing finish! To God be the glory. It was an answer-to-prayer finish. As our team gathered for prayer with 2 hours to go until the end of Friend Raiser we prayed for God to intervene and bless with an outpouring of support in a way that would be obvious that He had caused it. And we promised - when that happens - "We will give You all the praise and glory."

Well... it happened. Thank you, God.

A big thank you and God bless you for your generous spirit of giving during the annual Friend Raiser for Positive Life Radio. Your pledge of support and gifts will allow the ministry of great music and encouragement to continue.

Within a week you'll receive your Pledge Confirmation letter with an Easy Pay sign-up slip and a reply envelope. If you have not yet pledge your support for Positive Life Radio you may still help by visiting our pledge page at www.plr.org.

Director of The Gathering, Bob Nash, talked with us about the event and also how we can reach today's youth for Christ. If you'd like to reach Bob with questions about reaching youth in your church and community call (509) 542-1787. And you can visit their website as well.

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement: "American has pretty seriously gotten off track?"

Yes: 85.7%

No: 14.3%

The following comment seems to best summarize a lot of the thoughts on exact a majority of our survey responders believe America is off track.

"I'm disappointed that America appears to have happily skipped down the juvenile path of irresponsibility and entitlement. Somehow, we have lost sight of the long lasting truth that we are each responsible for our own actions and for how those actions will affect those around us. Somehow, vast numbers of Americans have lazily determined that they are entitled to (fill in the blank), whether or not they work hard for, save for and invest time and effort into earning (fill in the blank). We have, as a nation, told God to stay out of our schools and our Government. This is seriously off track. Our founding fathers drafted the concepts for our form of Government based on Godly principles. Does God feel welcome in our schools and court houses? Is God welcomed into the majority of our homes? Are the businesses in America afraid to proclaim "Celebrate! The Savior of the World has been born! Hallelujah! Jesus Lives!"? Without God at the center of our lives, homes, schools, businesses and government, we are seriously off track."

The price of rice has gone up considerably. Last fall (before the Rice for Cambodia campaign) rice was selling for less than $330/ton. As of right now, a ton of rice is $450… The sad thing is, it’s like this all over the world and rice is a huge staple for the majority of the world. If people were having a hard time affording rice at $330/ton, I can’t even imagine what they are doing with it being up to $450/ton. The need is even greater now to get people rice as many cannot afford it.

Our prayer request is that the Lord would miraculously drop the price of rice back down or at least keep it at $450 until June. Unfortunately the price could still rise a lot more between now and May/June when we will be purchasing it. CNN Headline News reported that rice is 20% higher now than it’s ever been and that more people around the world will be going hungry… Quite sad but we are encouraged knowing that the Lord is allowing us to be His hands and feet to help deliver rice in Cambodia!

We also understand better now why he put it on the hearts of so many Positive Life Radio listeners to give so generously. He knew the need would be much greater than we could have anticipated. Thank you for your generosity and thank you for praying for the Rice for Cambodia mission trip in June.
