Listen to What the Fan Said

Thanks to all of you who gave last week to help us through our current financial crunch. Although we're not out of the woods yet, we're in much better shape than before!
Thanks also to all those who prayed and all those who sent encouraging notes like this one:I just sent in a $25 donation with joy in my heart. My wife and I discussed it last night and agreed on this amount. We also agreed that if 5,000 fans sent just $10, that the $50,000 generated would make a large impact on providing for the band's needs.
It does not take much and I think people might think they have to give a lot when if they give a little it adds up greatly when more people contribute. So, I pray that they are not embarrassed to give as little as ten bucks and that many will give.
You guys are ministers of the Gospel. Just as we are to take care of our pastors and support our churches, I feel your ministry needs to be supported too, just like a church or missionaries would need support to survive. That is what you guys are, Missionaries and we are benefiting by being blessed and encouraged in our faith through the words and music you guys work so hard to produce and share.
I feel there is nothing wrong letting us know your needs. Other missions do, and that is how we know if help is needed, by communicating. If fact, we are encouraged to ask for things, Matthew 7:7 we are to Ask, Seek and Knock!
God uses people to fulfill some of His desire to answer us and provide for us. I have many times asked, seeked and knocked toward people and not just God, God uses people too to answer our needs sometimes.
Please feel free to send my reply to your fan base, I would like to encourage others to give the way we did if I can.
Love you all,
