December 2014

Dear friend,

2014 … what a year of great joys for Project Hannah! In October, Women of Hope went on the air with three new languages – 67 now! Four new, exciting audio projects are almost finished: for sexually exploited women, for victims of fistula and FGM, a discipleship radio Bible study based in the Magdalena film, and something new for young women 12-18 years of age. God has blessed, and we continue to serve women worldwide with awareness, prayer, programming, and mercy ministries. And all of this is the result of our corporate prayer.

And all of this at a time when Christians are facing the most inhuman terror in the Middle East and the devastating Ebola pandemic in West Africa, where entire families are being decimated. TWR/Project Hannah is broadcasting specific programs with messages of comfort and life-changing information. In such challenging, trying times, God calls us to pray. And as we pray, He works mightily changing and healing lives, unifying families, and transforming communities!

Dear friend, during this Christmas season of grace, will you join us in earnest prayer for women to find Jesus, our Mighty Savior? May they know “that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself” (2 Corinthians 5:19, KJV). What a day that was! Heaven burst open with light and song. Angels proclaimed peace on earth and goodwill toward men. Jesus’ first advent brought “Emmanuel – God is with us.”

Let’s pray that women receive Emmanuel in their hearts. Let’s pray Isaiah 61 over them and believe that, indeed, God is exchanging their ashes for a garland of praise and joy. May heaven rejoice for the abundant harvest of souls at this special Christmas time!

It amazes me that God continues to count on us to simply trust and obey his bidding and to believe in his master plan of salvation to women everywhere. Prayer is the oxygen for our souls, much like a candle can’t burn without oxygen – its flame dies out in a matter of a few moments. Without prayer there is no life, no spiritual victory. As evil tries to silence our prayers and snuff out the flame of our faith, may we stand firm rejoicing in God’s promise to listen to our prayers, because, as Paul wrote in 2 Corinthians 6:2, “now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.”

Rejoicing with you,
