BEGINNING WITH HIM … JULY, 2011
This is a special message from E-Mail Ministry
I (doug) want to let you know the current financial situation at E-Mail Ministry.
The recession that has hit the US and the world for the past few years has affected E-Mail Ministry severely.
E-Mail Ministry relies exclusively on the donations of its subscribers.
Since 2007, donations have been substantially less than the expenses of the ministry to the point that E-Mail Ministry has less than $35.00 in its bank account.
This is not sufficient funding to cover the expenses of this ministry.
Currently, the ministry needs $800 to pay for the extension of its trademark name. Also, the computer and printer equipment are almost 4 years old – which is pretty old for computers. They will need to be replaced soon.
I, personally, cannot afford to support the ministry myself.
After much prayer, I have decided to send out this request for donations.
If donations are not enough to support this ministry by the end of the year, I will need to shut E-Mail Ministry down.
E-Mail Ministry was started on December 3, 1998 and has served to support thousands of Christians and ministries around the world.
A handful of people have regularly supported this ministry over the past few years (my many thanks to them), but their efforts are not enough to cover the costs of the ministry each month.
If you have been blessed by this ministry, please ask God how He would have you support it. There are three key ways this ministry needs your support:
1) Please forward the messages onto others. E-Mail Ministry does not advertise but relies upon you to tell your friends, family and work associates about this ministry. You can also use the E-Mail Ministry “Tell A Friend” web page at: https://www.emailministry.org/tell_a_friend.asp
2) Please pray for this ministry. Pray that this ministry will reach seekers and believers around the world.
3) Support the ministry financially. The messages are free, but the means and method of conveying the messages is not. Please support this ministry with your financial gifts. Consider making a tax deductible contribution. Contributions can be made by check or online donation.
Contributions by check can be sent to:
E-Mail Ministry, Inc.
P.O. Box 6293
Plymouth, MI 48170
Online donations can be made via PayPal from the link at: https://www.emailministry.org/donate.asp
I realize that in this difficult economy, it is difficult to reach out to help others and many charities are struggling and are asking you to support their efforts.
All I ask is that you prayerfully consider supporting E-Mail Ministry however you can – by forwarding the messages onto others, in prayer, and/or financially.
E-Mail Ministry is exclusively supported by its subscribers. I do not accept any wages for my efforts with this ministry. Donations are solely used to offset the costs of this ministry. The E-Mail Ministry messages are free to all who subscribe, but the ministry itself does incur expenses. I am confident that God will provide to keep this ministry active.
E-Mail Ministry, Inc. is a recognized 501(c)(3) organization. For those who don’t speak the U.S. tax code, E-Mail Ministry is a recognized non-profit organization and all donations made to E-Mail Ministry are tax deductible on your U.S. federal income taxes.
