We are overjoyed and deeply grateful to announce that, thanks to your incredible generosity, our June Appeal 2024 has reached a remarkable milestone. We have raised $558,405 towards our goal of $650,000, which is 86% funded!
Celebrating Your Generosity
Your support means the world to us. Whether you’ve made a financial contribution, prayed for our mission, or shared your personal stories of how Rhema FM has impacted your life, every single act of kindness has brought us closer to our goal. Each donation, no matter the size, is a testament to your commitment to keeping the message of hope and faith alive in Newcastle and beyond.
The Power of Your Stories
Your stories are at the heart of what we do. They remind us why we strive to broadcast uplifting, Christ-centered content 24/7. Here are a few stories from our listeners that have touched our hearts during this appeal:
-
“I love being able to listen to a radio station with my 4 kids in the car, not worried about what will be said! Love how Rhema is a light amongst the radio. Praying that God uses this station to save people in the hunter region.”- Teryn
-
“Your music and words have been a light to in my life the last 5 years particularly through some particularly trying times. Thank you for all you do.”- Ellen
- “I love the generosity of heart and kindness of spirit found in the content of Rhema, I find it so encouraging when I get in the car, and my children are always excited to turn the radio on and listen, a testament to the ministry of Rhema.”- Meagan
- “Your positive encouraging Christ-centered music creates an atmosphere of life and peace and joy for my wife and I while we are serving the Lord in Australia. Thank you so much!!”- Allen
Your experiences inspire us to continue our mission with even greater passion and dedication.
Why Your Support Matters
Rhema FM Newcastle is more than just a radio station; it’s a community dedicated to spreading God’s love and hope through music and ministry. Your donations ensure that we can keep bringing you the programs you love, the worship songs that lift your spirits, and the messages that encourage you in your walk with Christ.
A Little More to Go
While the result of reaching 86% of our target is incredible, this still leaves a shortfall of $91,995 and we are again believing in God’s provision and asking to help us close that gap and be fully funded for the year ahead. Would you help us close the gap this July by giving your best gift today?
