As we come into the month of December, our hearts have already been so uplifted by words of deep appreciation that relate to our ministry calling. One of the first was from a dear longtime friend of our ministry in the Detroit area. Her words moved our hearts: Your newsletter for December arrived today and I read the entire writing in one sitting. I couldn’t lay it down. How inspiring and God focused! Just the messages we need for these troubled times. God is faithful and we must be also.

I’m 90 years old and have watched God work through many difficult circumstances. He has never failed. I continue to pray for God’s people to be on our knees humbly seeking God’s mercy while confessing our personal sins and those of our America. I pray He will WAKE up His children to stand boldly for His truth regardless of the consequences. Join me in asking God to give us opportunities to sow seeds for Him every single day.

Thank you for this inspiring newsletter that I will pass along to others, as I do with all of them. Keep Standing!! May God bless you all. Behold I am the Lord, the God of all flesh, is anything too hard for me? Jeremiah 32:27

Joyfully looking forward to the return of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, RG

Her faithfulness and the faithfulness of a solid core of faithful Christian friends once again fueled us forward this past year. There are immense pressures on so many of you in so many ways – including financial pressures – yet you have stood with us and behind us. Inflation is real for all of us; our latest heating costs have increased significantly, though we are careful to keep the temperature reduced, particularly when the building is not in use. This past year we experienced several of the lowest months of giving – almost one after another – and yet just a word here or there in our newsletter letting you know that we were seeing some concerning downturns, brought a quick response from you, our faithful supporters, lifting us up again.

Thankfully we began the early months of 2022 in a solid financial position due to the strong, faithful giving at the end of last year and in the early days of 2022.

As you know, we are a ministry that makes it a point in our labors only to ask when we see some concerning financial downturn or have an urgent need – which you know has been rare. We thank God!

The words above from our dear friend were echoed by a caller in recent days who stated in his message: We are blessed to be on your email list and we do support American Decency Association. We just appreciate everything that you do. You folks are spot on. … God bless you folks and really appreciate your work and all the information – when I get the mailings I make it a point to read them – underline them … God bless you all and I wish you all a blessed Christmas and New Year’s coming up and continue with your fine work.”

In closing, it is strong year-end giving (as well as faithful giving month after month) that enables us to keep our focus on the work of the American Decency Association. We acknowledge that we are heading into increasingly turbulent days, especially with the passing of the (Dis)”Respect for Marriage Act” as 12 Republicans joined with 48 Democrats to codify same-sex marriage in federal law. The so-called “Respect for Marriage Act” will be a tremendous threat to religious liberty with implications and ramifications for ministries such as American Decency Association and individual Christians – far beyond what we at this point can even imagine.

“It is the image of God reflected in you that so enrages hell; it is this at which the demons hurl their mightiest weapons.” [Taken from The Christian in Complete Armour, William Gurnall]

We anticipate greater pressures from the realms of darkness. However, our staff remains steadfast; by the grace of God, we have been immensely blessed and equipped to minister in His Holy Name, come what may. We love the Lord and seek to do His will. God help us as the days become increasingly wicked and our leaders become increasingly corrupt and compromised.

Your year-end support would be deeply appreciated and an encouragement to us that, despite the times,
you are with us as God leads you.
